or you could have em both in same folder or whatever (however it works) so when you post/view its reading the post from a common folder, so if you dot like flash you can still use V2

Supposing that there was a remote possibility that somebody decided that it might be time for compsci.ca version 3, would you like the interface to be in flash? Note that the forums will still remain in PHP. |

Don't do flash. Noobs who are making their first site use flash, I think it gives a bit of a cheap feal. |

Dear god, compsci will lose 500+ hits if this site turns into a full flash site! |

Ya if you go flash, also make a HTML version available cause you will probably loose some people (inless they just stay at forums)....but anyway on version 3 get rid of the NUke setup on main page |

NUKE setup? this uses PHPBB not PHPNuke. if you mean the flash screen on the first page you come to, then use it should be trashed, and just let the person be redirected tot he main page. |

This site doesn't use PHPNuke (that damm project has 1000 errors on it's on site :S). It uses a phpbb portal from phpbbhacks i think, and why get rid of it? |

Wow. People actually go to the main page then? What is there to see there? I always skip to the forums so you could go ahead and make the entire main page in flash (you can make it look really ugly) and I wouldn't mind a bit. |

42 eh...hehehe, mustn't forget our Guides now must we. And flash? Naw...slow down the site...still quite a few 56Kers around. You want an improvement? How about the new links on the homepage...instead of them opening the new site in the same window, open in a new window. Will save the hassle of having to click 'Back'. |

i don't really know much about flash programming, but would making the menus and whatever be better in the long run? would there be a greater chance of customization and cool little things? if it turns out to be the same as before (except with the extra effort and loading time), with no new features, then i say no. |

Then stick with what we've got. it's clean, it's functioning fine, and it gives you what you want. I see no problem with it. I don't think a person looking for help or wanting to share C++ code would be influenced by how cool the animation for the buttons are. |

HELL YA@!! FIREFOX DA SHI!T ..... cuz a IE internet explorer window takes up lets say 2MB RAM a peice... and if you have like 10 windows open taht gets to be a lot... whereas a firefox tab takes 1 MB or lower.... per tab... NOTE: TAB is like a new window, but isntead of at the bottom of the screen its all in one window... |
