New Home - ver 2

[Amberion]

It seems that Melk and the admin crew may be able to get us into our own site again in the near future

Here's your chance to say what you want to see at the Muggle Informer

Forum colours, What forums - anything you want to bring up

At the moment we are planning on keeping all the old forums and moderators

Admin looks like being myself

[Colli]

:D Delightful choices of admin and mods!

And I like the forum color and all... and seeing the little cauldrons as buttons would be nice again. :D

I'm also happy with the 3 main forums and then an Info forum of sorts like last time. Maybe Info/Test.. I don't think we need a separate test forum. :)

:hug:s to Melk and everyone else working on this.

[Fleurdelacour]

yay! :hug: to the lot of yees!

I have to agree with Colli on this :) Love the purple :D

There is one thing though, which has been bugging me for a loong time.

Eversince, I don't know how long, but for almost a year, we've been G rated, and the CoS film was PG, the books are certainly not G (they give some people nightmares ;) ) When I first joined in Sept 2000, it was PG... And it just seems a bit silly having the forums G rated...

[Amberion]

Actually FleurD we have been PG for a month

You do realise that the information thread is there for me to give you changes and you to tell/ask me about things;)

[Fleurdelacour]

I really should read those things :rolleyes: :trout:

Thanks anyway :)

[Voldemort'sWand]

LB gets out her notepad.

Two votes for purple. Little cauldrons as buttons. mmm'k. Information/Test forum. Good, good. :D

LB wanders off making notes.

[Voldemort'sWand]

I have built the frame and walls for the new home, but I need some furniture! When I installed the software for managing the Gallery today, I realized I have no Harry Potter pictures. :eek:

If you have Harry Potter pictures that you would like to include in the Gallery at the new home, please email them to gallery@muggleinformer.net. Thanks!

[Fleurdelacour]

A GALLERY?! :hug: wow! I'll scan some pictures from Vanity Fair tomorrow :)

Did we have one of them with version one? I know we had sort of one when we were first around...

[lithorose]

Can I vote for green? That pretty forest green that's under our options? The purple is a little too...bright.:)

[Voldemort'sWand]

FleurD: I wasn't around for version 1, so I don't know. Version 2 will however. :D Yay! Some pictures are on the way!

lithorose: votes for purple are winning so far and I have started work based on the purple scheme. The green styleset option (which it sounds like you are currently using) will still be available on the new board. You will just have to specify it in your options the way you do here. The homepage, however, for now is purple. Sawwy! :hug:

[Elfëa]

What's with me never noticing these info threads?? :confused: :trout:

Pictures would be great... (I just haven't had no way for achieve them so, I can't help)

And I vote for Purple :p (bright? Huh... on some comps I can't even see the background color, cause it has turned black (yeah, stupid settings on some comps... can't bother to change them tho) :p)

:hug:s

[Voldemort'sWand]

I put some pictures in the gallery (http://www.muggleinformer.net/gallery/index.php?currDir=.). Enjoy! :D

[Fleurdelacour]

wow! the gallery is brilliant! :hug:

I haven't had time to scan up the pictures, but I have some i took straight from the set yesterday :) see Movie news :)

[lithorose]

:clap: Woo Hoo!! The gallery is beeooteefull, LB! Some of those I've never seen before, either...

[Elfëa]

It's Great! :hug:s

There are some pics I haven't seen before :eek:!

[Colli]

Wow! Lotsa new pictures! I'll have to go through my folders and see if any are missing.

Can we have separate Jason Isaacs and Alan Rickman folders? ;)

Green is nice, too, I've just gotten used to the purple. :)

[Voldemort'sWand]

I will reorganize as the gallery grows. Since there are currently so few pictures, I figured "by movie" was a good way to organize them. It seemed silly to have a folder for each character with only one picture in it. :D Send me lots and I will reorganize!

[Colli]

I was kinda joking, but ok. ;) Are we just doing the characters/movie or can we have actor pictures too?

[Voldemort'sWand]

Heh heh, and here I thought you were a big Alan Rickman fan! :D

I think we will stick with characters and movies, but if there were pictures of the actors at movie events, like premieres and stuff, we could have a section for those too.

[Colli]

Ok :D.. I'll try to find time to sort through my folders and find appropriate pictures. ;) Same rules as in Fandom, right? No logos, etc.

[Voldemort'sWand]

Correct.

I am trying to avoid making this a one word post, but there really is nothing more to say on the matter. :D

[Voldemort'sWand]

Please see this thread (http://www.council-of-elrond.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=3216[/url) for information about our move to the new home.

[Colli]

Let me see if you all copy/pasting the link will work. Just add the picture name onto the end. These are all Sorceror's Stone pictures, and unless I'm mistaken, they're all new. Sorting through Chamber of Secrets will be a problem, though.. I have over 500 pictures in that folder...

I've got a ton of Lucius pics, but most of them are unusuable due to logos or such. If anyone ever seems to find time to fix them, I'd be happy to pass them along.

I imagine it will take a while to load all of these.. just let me know when you're done so I can take them off my directory. :D

[Voldemort'sWand]

Colli! :clap: Thank you! I have put all of the pictures in the gallery. You can take them off your server.

Now that we have so many, I am going to plan a reorganization after we move to the new board. :clap:

Keep 'em coming, ya'll! :D Remember, you can email them to gallery@muggleinformer.net if you don't have webspace.

[Fleurdelacour]

I will scan up the pictures over the weekend, I've been busy, but I have zillions of magazines from when PS came out :)

[Voldemort'sWand]

I'm so Americentric that it took me a second to figure out what "PS" was. I get it now! Philosopher's Stone. Which brings up an issue. I just automatically called the category in the gallery "Sorcerer's Stone." Does any one have any opinions on which we should use? or both?

[Fleurdelacour]

I'm biased, you should use Philosopher's Stone as the books are British, and I personally thing changing the name is an insult to Americans.. :rolleyes:


Maybe we should take a vote!

[Elfëa]

I'd go for both, because the traffic on the site is from both countries - even if I personally prefer Philosopher's Stone :p

[Colli]

I agree with FleurD... calling it SS was an insult. :D But I don't care.. most people will understand either way. :)

I have 12 or 13 more pics, I'll get them up later.

[Elfëa]

NEW HOME LOOKS FAB! :D Yay!

:hug: mods and all!

[Voldemort'sWand]

Welcome home, Elfëa! You were the first one here! Were you waiting at the door?

[Elfëa]

Nope.
Just plainly wondering cause I didn't get so many e-mail notifications flooding my mailbox (it took some time to remember ;)). Had to come check if anyone else had been here :p

[Mellon]

Yay! :D We're home. :)

[Cedric]

All these categories confuse and scare me.... I need a hug...

Oh, and no offence or anything, but why is someone named "Legolas'Bow" running a Potter site? Shouldn't you give yourself a more wizard-friendly name?

-Cedric

[Voldemort'sWand]

:hug: Cedric :hug:

Yeah, we want to provide you guys as much space as possible to spread out and have discussions about....well....everything! :D You'll get used to the new place, just let me know if you have any questions about anything. I am working on a thread about what goes where for the Information Booth. Coming soon.

Hmmmm.....maybe I need to find my alterego! :LOL: I should have thought of creating a more wizardly account before I moved the board, but I had to have a admin account to get into new board so I just used the one I had at CoE. Seems silly now not to the thought of it. But the name of the account can't be changed and there are too many things I have this account set up for to run the administrative stuff to really turn back now.

Maybe down the road, I will wave my magic wand and transform into someone else! :eek: :rolleyes:

How about "Ron'sWand"? :D ;) :eek:

[Voldemort'sWand]

There is now a "What Goes Where" (http://www.muggleinformer.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=3273) thread in the Information Booth. Hope that clears up some things.

Yakky! But Ron's wand is BROKEN! Are you trying to say something about me?! :trout: ;) *humph*

[Elfëa]

Don't worry Legolas'Bow - he'll get nice new wand in PoA... :D

You could be Voldemort's Wand :p

[Colli]

:D Yay! Everything looks great.. just gotta get back into the swing of things. :)

:hug: Ced and LB (aka Voldemort'sWand ;))

[Fleurdelacour]

Wow! It's all so pretty! :hug: :hug: and one for Ced :hug:

Ooh, go with Voldie's Wand ;) Go on :D

[Elfëa]

Voldie'sWand sounds good! :p

:hug: Ced and VW ;)

[Voldemort'sWand]

Voldemort'sWand it is! Ah! I like this!

Glad to see everyone is getting use to the new place. Let me know if you need anything. :)

[Elfëa]

:jawdrop:

Gah. That's actually hilarious name... :rotfl: (Sorry, brain not functioning today... must be the boredom... anyone on YM or MSN talk to me... )

[Colli]

Mwahahaha! That rocks. :D

Colli quivers in fear ;)

[Fleurdelacour]

Voldemort'sWand is very powerful ;)

Must stop watching Graham Norton...!
