Starting now, I'm gonna be experimenting with adding custom images to possibly give the forum a better look in the near future.
For those of you using the default skin of the forum which is "Monster Energy Drink", you'll notice some differences here and their. I won't be modifying any other skin yet. Anyways, I'm not sure how long I'll be doing this for, but it'll be interesting to see what I can add. =)

The new 1138 logo bedside each sub-board looks great TZKK. Makes spotting newly posted threads a lot easier. Keep up the good work and experimentations!

I would love to see new rank images. The stars are cool and what not, but I think with your artistic talent, it could look way better! Just a thought!

Ok, I made several sets of buttons that took me 7 templates to make.
I would like everyone's feedback on the new stuff i've added.
To see the new stuff, make sure your forum skin is set to "Monster Energy Drink".
On a minor note, if these new thing were to be extended into other skins made by us the council, I can make buttons and other custom images for those as well upon request. However, I don't plan on doing so for the "Default". I'd like to keep that the way it is just in case some people prefer the normal look.

I love the new buttons for site navigation, much better than the ones which were there before imo. The flashing Register one is a nice touch too - certainly catches the eye of new users checking out the site. As is the red Delete post button.
I never realised though that once you navigate to a sub-board each thread has the golden 1138 logo bedside it. Shouldn't that only go to a newly posted thread? If all the older threads which haven't been posted in recently were greyed out it would make distinguishing between them and the newer ones a lot easier imo.
Great work though overall - the site looks a lot more user friendly now. I don't use the other skins here but it might be nice to extend this template to the others just in case some people here do. Kudos overall though TZKK!

Unfortunately, the gold logo for new posts and the greyed out logo for no new posts are for the front page only. when you navigate to a sub-board, the gold logo's only represent normal threads, they'll be a little different if they're either locked threads, sticky threads, or both. I would of liked em to be for all boards including sub-boards, but apparently it's not possible. Other than that. Thank you liamcadhain. =)

Not sure if it's yourself who put them there or not TZKK, but the new images for each of the gaming sub-boards look pretty neat. Are you going to extend them to the other boards? (I'd imagine it would be difficult enough to find suitable images to represent the content in some of them though)
