No hole barred site content... It's about us toadfish so we'll make whatever you want.  Right of the bat I would say we need something about the mission of the Toadfish Monastery right on the front page.

If we have a decent discussion on it I am sure we can figure it out.  :)

hulmility (sp?), kindness, even for jagoffs, constant search of a higher state of enlightment.

i'm not very good with words. but just some ideas. btw this is rumblemonk. i guess somehow i wasn't paying attention to what i was filling in when i signed up, and ended up with my last name as a screen name.

Hey RumbleMonk!   Good to see you!

See if you can change your user name.  Change it in SMF first, then in Joomla.

Great suggestions.  We should break that discussion out into another board here.  Then use the results of that discussion for the contents of the home page.

You'll like SMF better than phpBB, there's a spell checker.  I have to turn it on apparently.

Yeah!  I found the spell check enable.  Now I can spell!  I new I misspelled apparently...

Holy midgits*, I finally made it in! I just knew somebody was pointing at me yesterday, Duke. My ears were burning!

Now all we have to do is figure out how this works. Anyone have any helpful hints for the newest newbie?




*please forgive my swearing. I was excited. :-[

Griffin

Well it seems we need to publish a dictionary of Toadfish swear words.

I have a knack for getting the hang of things very quickly, but it is Darren with all of the answers.

How do we adjust our profiles? How we do we get our avatars in here? How do we pass notes (PMs)?  ???

I like the Dictionary idea. Some clever Sibling suggested a Lexicon in the monastery. I guess it's time to start collecting some of our invented words.

In the SMF Forum, click the profile button.  The on the left hand side menu on the SMF forum, click on 'Forum Profile Information'.  From there you should be okay.

For PMs, hit the 'PM: 0(0)' link at the top of the SMF page.  From there it's a little like phpBB.

I love the new look of the forums, but it could do with a little more color.

I meant in here.

I kinda like the black and white images. Looks like an old travel brochure. I suppose the text would stand out more if it was tinted. Nice work, Duje!

Thanks Duje!  I think that is the most artistic thing I have ever done.  I am really not very good at it at all.

Are you talking about the "Toadfish Monastery" text in the header image?  Should I make it brighter, say macthing the symbol of yours?

Opsa


Yeah! Can you get fill the letters with a little gold, to suggest monastic illumination, perhaps?

Also, how do you start a new topic? We need some general instructions.

Sibling Qwertyuiopasd

maybe lay down some rules and the creed?
