Hey guys and girls, i just re-opened www.nerdnations.com

What do you think? Any suggestions / reviews on what you think should be changed? What about unique ways to keep people visiting?

We also have a BBS, www.nerdnations.com/bbs - What do you think?

I am all ears open :D

Personally, I think it needs a tad bit more color contrast.. Other than that, it looks very well done.

they are as unique as a default report color scheme from access ;) no offense.. get some greens and yellows and maybe small portions of dark blue.

What is access?

Crappy program that comes with Microsoft Office that can be used as a database in conjunction with ASP (I don't believe it's supported by _anything_ else)

He wasn't talking about DBs, he was talking about a theme in Access, it's not just used as a DB.

is that because you can't program in it? ;)
you really need to have an open mind. Access is a very powerful program when used correctly. It doesn't have to be used with ASP either though that is an option.

I said crappy because it's file format is so fux0red up that nothing other than MS Office can understand it ;)

Theoritically, Office 2k3 will have full XML support. That would mean all those databases would be acessible to everything under the sun. Probably not a good format for an active database, but exelent for inter-program portability.

OSS doesn't necessarily mean ease of use. I've used open office.. it's horrible.. half assed designed and clumsy.
