UBB.Developers Forums UBB.classic V6.4 - 6.7 Modifications Forum Design Integration Ultimate Hacked Board

Heya all!
http://tech.unreal2.net/

I've been holding off on announcing this one for a couple days, but figure now's an OK time. After several weeks (on and off) of extensive design integration, the board is ready. The board's design was used in the web based administration panel for Unreal Tournament (a first person action game), so those who use it will feel write at home.

If you're curious, you can see a screenshot of the web based admin here: http://planetunreal.com/theadminpage/Remote.jpg

Things to look for on these forums:
- UBB stat totals in top right of Ultimate
- Extensive category and forum integration in Ultimate
- Modified thread listing in forumdisplay
- Previous UBB navigational theme changed to fit design
- New topic form listed in thread index, to abvoid unneccesary clicks
- Completely reorganized post setup in ubb_library2
- Each post can have a topic, instead of just the initial thread
- List of headlines (which are linked) for each post at the top of the page in ubb_library2
- Post reply form listed on main thread page, to avoid unneccesary clicks
- Thread info in top right (file size, dates...) of ubb_library2

The whole design has been made a lot more easy to navigate, and a lot of the frills were either moved or removed.

If you have any comments, drop them here -- as I'm more than happy when it comes to receiving criticism.

Can I just say "Wow", your layout is fantastic! It's amazing what you have done.

You've inspired me to play with my board again!!!

All I'm gonna say is "HOLLY C*** . How do you guys do that? You didn't just use footers/headers, did you?

BTW, what version of UBB is that?
Also, i like the form to post reply on the bottom of the page!
Greate job overall!!!!

Thanks for the kind words!

Ilya: oh no, it was a LOT more than that
fyi, Ultimate, forumdisplay, and ubblibrary2 don't use headers/footers at all. The only pages that do are the sub pages (register, profile, search, etc.) as I'm too lazy to customize them to the fullest.

As far as what version ... I'm not even quite sure myself. Somewhere from 5.40 to 5.43.

Looks good...

You might want to contact InfoPop about altering their copyright notice at the bottom. They can be really picky...

I know you have placed a lot of work into this but do feel the need to post in every forum on every bb on the net?

Nice UBB - **** attitude

Excuse me Dave,

I posted on two forums here, because BOTH were applicable.

I also posted on Scriptkeeper, because there are two different crowds on each BB.

Three boards on two forums -- If I recall correctly, you post your hack releases on both Scriptkeeper and UBBCodeHacking, so why can't I do the same?

All I want is some feedback on what should be changed. I know its not perfect, but give me a break. I did nothing wrong.

With each post you seem to be getting more and more bitter towards others.

Grow up.
