New skin anybody?

Postby CaptainFG » Wed Sep 23, 2015 12:29 pm

I was wondering that if you guys are planning to make a custom skin for this forum ? Or using a different one ? The default one is kinda boring
This form surely deserves a better skin than that of the FlightGear Fourm

I have currently a lot of work outside of FG and the forum, so whatever will happen, I am pretty sure, it will not happen soon. Unless you know how to make skins for a PHPBB board.

Yeah, next thing is I click on that site on "changing styles" and get a 404 error. But there is a lot of other stuff. So cut me a little slack, will you, I try to day to get the next serial killer case on my own website, then I have to change some hardware things here in order to be in running order on Saturday, so maybe I find some peaceful reading time on Monday afternoon, okay?

Sooooo, let me guess ... I am supposed to work more on this because ... well, why? People ran off to Discord and other sims, there are just a handful of plane devs left and I don't know how many are active on the scenery side. The big mouthes who always told me how the world should work contribute nothing, as usual, I do already all the paying ... soooo, errrrr, why exactly?

And I moved to p3d because it offered what I wanted:
1. Well developed planes.
2. Well developed scenery.

I agree with J. (and J.) as well.
But...

I wouldn't mind trying to do a skin replacement if this easy enough. (I have no clue, and guidance of guys with expertise is needed for me here).
Also, if we decide we will do this, maybe we can ran a skin-choosing poll? who knows?

If we gave everybody in the World free software today, but we failed to teach them about the four freedoms, five years from now, would they still have it?
