NerdNations.com - Need Opinions

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

 

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

 

AHHHHH. My eyes, my eyes. Too much contrast.!!!!!!

 

What kind of colors then? I think the colors are unqiue

 

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.

 

> they are as unique as a default report color scheme from access

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)

 

Oh, that, i don't use databases

 

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

 

Oh, ok. Sorry

 

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.

 

Doesn't run on platform of choice

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

 

Welcome to the world of propietary software

awww... too bad.

 

Meh, all the formats that come with MS Office work, and they work JUST LIKE in MS Office, Welcome to the world of OSS



[B}

Meh, I have better things to do then use Access anyway

 

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.

 

so, whuddya want? a medal?
OSS doesn't necessarily mean ease of use. I've used open office.. it's horrible.. half assed designed and clumsy.

 

STOP CRAPPING MY THREAD, THANKS...
