Hi guys,
I should have said hi as the first post but since I asked for help and received help from Santai here, I figure I have more to say.
I'm from vb.org as well (under quantnet.org name). As other admin who run VB, the hardest thing is to settle on a style that meets your need and allows for future expansion.
I have been phpbb admin for quite sometime before I moved to vB 3 months ago. Since then, I learn my way around doing things in VB and install 20+ styles and countless mods. I'm a nut when it comes to trying new stuff.
It's getting to a point where my members see new default styles everyday when they log in
They've been asking when would I stop this madness and I believe I can tell them that " very soon"
The reason is that I just happened to see vBRevisited style on vb.org yesterday. Its elegance won me over. Probably, I was so tired of not finding the style I like and spent too much time editing templates to achieve what i want.
Santai told me to visit here to see the answer for some of my questions, so here I am. I asked some questions here and Santai was kind enough to help me till the end. Not because I paid him, but because I'm a member. And use his free style
I usually don't spend much time on any forum unless they offer something unique and useful. How the admin treat new members also play an important role (I should know this since I'm admin myself)
Another surprise is to see Lilu here. I read her posts at TAZ often and found that she is more relaxing here, unlike at TAZ
So, that should sum up who, how and why I am here. I don't use English at home so don't get on my grammar and typos too much.
