  1. Oh sorry, I though it only conserned a spam topic not a community category.I must say that my suggestion is a bit bigger, incorporating both such forums as General, computers, media or similar.

  2. Have you ever considered adding a community section to this forum? I know, I know most people say something like "This forum was created for disussing _____, not general". Although a community section will strenghten the community tenfolds. Trust me. Although More activiy -> bigger forum -> more things to be attracted towards -> more visits -> more clicks on ads(?)

  3. There is no way that it can increase spamming as it is not build on post count. It is users giving reputation to users. There is even a feature that restricts reputation/day and minimum post count for giving reputation.

  4. You can easily make a very basic graident using Microsoft Word and Paint. If you have about 600 USD you can buy Photoshop. If you want a free image editor, I would like to suggest Paint.NETDownloadGradient TutorialIf you do not want to make it for yourself, please post specifications on colors, size etc. and I will make one for you.- Moridin

  5. if they are not organized into topics they will b hard to search. Even large blogs are divided into categories for searching.
    The article modification from invisionize has categories. I mean removing the format that is in a topic. Think a normal forum topic vs. a blog entry :)I've put a link to an example of an article section in my signature.
  6. I cannot emphasize enough that my username is Moridin, not "Mordon, "Moridine", "Moridian" or any other version of it. This happens to me a lot.A forum with user written articles is one options, although a collection of non-topic articles are more professional and accesible in my opinion.

  7. i think its a good idea, maybe it could have a wiki or would people leave the normal tutorials?
    Although a wiki requires a lot of managment from the staff. If it is an article section, the only thing that would need to be done is approve/deny.
  8. I suppose you can use some variant of the if-else javascript script.

    <script type="text/javascript"><!--if( location.href == "That_page_where_you_want_it_underlined" ){document.write("<span style="text-decoration: underlined;">HTML for the normal link here</span>")}else{document.write("HTML for the normal link here")}//--></script>
    Customize to fit your needs.- Moridin
  9. My advice to you is to get an open source like phpBB, install it and work with it (adding modifications etc.). That is one of the best ways to learn as you get a feel for PHP, instead of looking at half-done code.- Moridin

  10. I would highy advice you not to use the mailto: link as bots spider websites to collect email addresses for their spam/virus mailing lists. Do something like this:

    someone [at] w3schools [dot] com
    After all, most people use external email service either way, so a clickable link is just in the way.- Moridin
  11. It's a pretty good idea. Would be nice to have some various, often-used answers to repeated questions, but then that would almost defeat the purpose of W3S itself... :)
    To some extent, yes.Although there are so much more possible ways to implement it. They could deal with tips & Tricks and howto's not covered in the W3S tutorials.In the end, it would probably drive more traffic to W3S
