I'd like to see the thumbs up pick of the original Obner as our logo picture, especially if we had a fancy new login screen.

Not that it matters, but we'd probably lose our post counts, right?

Also, does this use OpenID? Would we lose our usernames, etc?

I'm down, I just had those questions.

Better browsing from smartphones sounds good, but I'm gonna have to change my vote in Dalen's poll.

He said it would not be a big problem for him to do it (probably could get it done in one night), so long as he's provided with the theme/layout we want to use.

ANSWERS I HAZ THEM

1. We can keep the logo, I just thought it would look out of place on a different theme. Whatever you guys want.

2. I am reasonably certain there are scripts that will allow me to transfer all existing users, posts, and post-counts over to the new site, because god forbid we move into the new place and have no laurels upon which to rest.

3. The only OpenID mod I've been able to find is insecure, so for now no OpenID. If you can find me another open source bulletin board that supports OpenID and you don't care about #2 supra then that's fine too.

All of this still depends on somebody finding or designing an acceptable phpbb3 theme.

It would be total anarchy.

Oh, I'm against OpenID.

Really? I mean, most sites have a username/password alternative login system anyway, but I cannot imagine why you would be against having a single secure login for all the sites you use.

Well, granted its been probably just an isolated experience that's messed it up. I dunno, it stinks to go to a new site, and find they are using some openid system and then you have to retrieve your username and password, etc. Like I said, its a personal experience that just has discouraged me.

We need one of our design gurus (Dale, Jonathon or Cory) to GIT-R-DUN.

I'm fine with starting with a template -- I'm asking for obner's help in finding some and then narrowing the field.

I personally really like the current digs, but whatever, if the benefits outweigh the negatives of keeping the current board...

Probably closest to current Ob color-scheme, and pretty neutral.
