Our big 2008 updateMaybe not THAT big, but still worth some notes.
01 - LayoutAs you can see, not only a new header, no, a complete new design. With the change of the layout I also did some changes in the structure. Yes(!), the shoutbox can only be seen at the portal. This is to guide more people into the chat. You can't miss it! (top-right, if you did..)
02 - ProfileWoohoo! Completely customizable profile page!
You can upload pictures, add clips (embed codes), add your complete bio and interests (use bbcodes for simple customization.)
There is a buddy feature that you can organize in your profile.
On the right sidebar you can also find a little menu (below the poll) to get to some options faster.
Nice little bonus:
You can add own CSS/html to customize your profile completely! (like on myspace, veoh ..etc .. but a bit tricky..)
However, don't try to simply use myspace themes, they might screw your profile!04 - Chatmib.chat ~ I added a new link/button for those who dislike/can't use mIRC and/or dislike/can't use JAVA.
You don't need any plugin, script or wuteva'!
Click on it, (don't block popups!), change the nick and connect (don't close, it takes a few seconds.)
Server and channel are already edited for you. Enjoy~
05 - Stats buggedWhen clicking on stats at the stats block (left bar)...
http://www.hip-university.net/index.php?action=stats..you can now see the top10 posters of today and this week (starting by today.)
06 - Users Logged In TodayWhen you are in the forum, scroll down and you can see a "Users Logged In Today" list.
This shows all people who visited and logged in today (not counting guests).
08 - News on FrontpageOnly a minor change, but I limited the displayed characters per news on the frontpage to
4000. This only means that, if you want to read all news, you have to click on the news and read it inside the forum. While you are already there, WHY NOT MAKING A COMMENT? If I keep on seeing 1 or 2 comments only, my motivation to work 30-60min each day for the news might drop very soon.
09 - Rearrangement of BoardsDid some moving around. What do you think? Complaints? Ideas?
10 - Board IconsChanged the board icons and what style symbolizes what status.

= new posts

= no new posts
(normal pic = no new posts,
the Reina pic is only an example)
There are no gray icons anymore! Don't get confused!
To see where exactly the new posts are (if there are childboards only):

- new posts

- no new posts
11 - Coming soon...More fixes and remaining boards.
