So me and Mindwalker are in brainstorming mode right now as to what features to have on the new site. We'll be attempting to make the site more integrated with the forums, tuning it into a portal. That's about as far we've gotten. And well this is you chance to come with suggestions, got any ideas for AnCo.net 3.0? Discuss!Or me and Mindy will just figure shit out on our own. ;p edit: lol this is topic number 4000 :3 Oh yeah, we'll be changing web host any day now, so if the site is down or acting odd don't worry.  Just get on IRC or something.

Maybe some sort of chat box thing. Get visitors to say shit occasionally. I'm kind of blank for ideas at the moment, but if I think of something I'll post it up.

Why not integrate the news pages into the forum more? Might stimulate some more people into registering.

I have a serious idea for once.  Why not show a smattering of the "hot topics" being discussed in the forums on the main page?

That's not a bad idea. Popular sites I frequent like Hongfire have like "Recent Threads" or "Active Threads" shown on the front page.

Yeah that's a feature we'll be implementing most probably.
Not too sure about the chat box, since the right panel might be stuffed with too much stuff. Might install a chatbox on the forums again if people wants to.

Didn't the one we had before slow down the forum though?

There's no shoutbox mod out there that is good enough at the moment.
We'll have to live with irc for now. :p

Honestly, the front page has nothing that needs to be added or changed (I like the sleek clean look). Unless you want to add some sort of "featured member" module, I can't think of anything that'd match the sleekness  . Gift giving for the holidays?

Haha thank you Zann, but yeah it got loads that could be added.. :p
And really, no matter how satisfied I might have been at the time...one year later I've kinda grown tired of the looks. lol
Was thinking of doing something rather drastically different for v3, if I ever get to it.

A new look would be nice, but do it when you guys have time and feel like doing it. Nothing is as satisfying as it should be when you really don't want to do it too much.
