There is no exact spec really, just the bigger the better. Esp in terms of Ram and HD.

Perferably 1u in height.

If you can find a leasing deal (whereby we pay for it over time) that would rock.

Thanks for the help.

Could you perhaps do up a few screensavers or backrounds using the t-shirt art-work? They'd be pretty nice.

Whats the story now for boards.ie, now that it seems that worldport is closing down in Blanchardstown? Thats where you were going host it right? Is everything gonna be put on hold, or is the a secret backup "plan b"?

All the above ideas went in to my head and a good one came out.

Charge users £20 a year for a custom avatar.
Restrict the size, and host the images on boards.ie.

ill give yas £20 for custom avatar and tag. if ye'll agree, where do i send the money too??

DeadBankClerk · 03-12-2001 12:10am

disable the img tag in signatures (and limit the number of carriage return characters) and cahrge 20 for custom avatars, and have the submission done manually be mods/admins

I WILL PAY 30 QUID FOR SMAK TO HAVE HIS POST COUNT RESET TO ZERO.

oh, and i will decline 6 months worth of moderator fees. that should enable you to buy 2 servers. i still want my robbie williams football shirt with boards.ie on it.

make it so.......

DeadBankClerk · 03-12-2001 7:26pm

I can happily report that the small problems with polls, previewing posts are due to our Windows operating system. I recently installed the same version of vB at mangatoanime.com and am having no such problems. I imagine that when we move to *nix these issues will disappear.

Happy New Year one and all!

Cool, plans to move are going well. We'll see what happens in the new year.
