Okay... It just came to my mind that we somehow need to find new members. When I started my MCR forum it was very hard to find some and although it's online for just a year now, it died long ago.

That's why I'm wondering how we're going to promote this forum to make it big and successful. Any ideas? I'd chose the usual ones like Bulletins on Myspace or giving hints in other forums. But what else?

Good questuion.
I thought about making a banner thing.... you know that picture thingies that you can click on. But my gimp isn't working right, so I can't make one right now...
And yeah, bulletins and stuff... I can't think of anything else right now. ^^°

I'll make a banner-thingy.
You girls are really...ambitious.

I wanted to make a banner thingiiiiiieeee

Don't cry.
I've got all the graphic stuff. Makes more sense, you know?
I'm the design-freak.

Okay I've finished two. But noooooow I don't know how to put this white box under them...with the code in it...to copy...you know?

whatever.

don't the text_area things work?

I got it...

Code:

looks great!!! *thumbs up*

Yeah. But it's not easy, getting the codes out of that tiny boxes.

Tiny? They're bigger than the banners!

They're longer than the banners but they're not very high >.>

Okay that's true.

Sooo back to topic!

I think I just had an awesome idea.

I am member of an older Silent Soul forum (http://silentsoul.aceboard.fr/), french only, that is nearly dead at this time, but people still come over every once in a while, so I'll talk about this forum there. Maybe that'll give us a couple of new members. But I don't know how to post the banner, so I'll create the topic over there, and when I find out how to use the banner or when someone tells me how, I'll add it.

edit: well, not right now because the other forum is slow and crappy for no good reason

I'm not sure how to poat the banners on a forum, I'd guess you'd just have to copy the code in the box under the banner and paste it in your post. That should worl if you have html enlabled in your forum. If not, I think you'd need a bb code thig, but I'm not really sure how tu turn a html code into an bb code. >.>°
But the idea is great!

I just posted the link in the group on facebook.
