Please post what you'd like to see changed, fixed, added, or removed in this thread. Keep in mind, if it's a big request, we may decide to add it after site launch, or at a later date.

Seeing as I'm here, I might as well make the first post.
- More Definitions are required in the Music Encyclopedia
- More new content is required in the articles section
- More Questions need to be asked in the FAQ

- A slightly larger layout because the forum is too narrow
I'll have a new great article for you this month.
Otherwise, very good job guys! Keep it up!

Thanks Pat
Does it state somewhere we allow the creation and adding of themes? I mean themes can be send in of course, but this is not a feature of United Trackers.

In "your account" is a themes button with only one theme called UT. Giving the user the power to submit themes to the administration could put UT's visual future into the hands of the user.

The site is a fairly standard PHPNuke system... If someone were to send us a PHPNuke Theme, it shouldn't take TOO long to adapt the content... As PHPNuke uses PHP code and HTML/CSS for designing the themes, we'd also like to take a look at any code sent to us, in order to prevent exploits in any server-side code... I can't see this as becoming a free-for-all uploadfest of themes, but I'd like to see a variety of themes as well. We're open to ALL kinds of helpful submissions at this time.
Terms of use is in the works, along with a Privacy Policy. The terms will be similar to the one discussed in the old forums, but we're still trying to get the archived posts back up to double-check what people liked, disliked, and some of the wording we used... Right now We've got a rather lengthy version I'd like to simplify.
Regarding the Dictionary/Encyclopedia, I'd like to see things user-submissible, but currently that would require a fairly substantial re-code. We're using the standard PHPNuke module for that one, which only allows Administrators to make changes to the encyclopedias. For now, if someone PM's me, e-mails me, or uses the feedback forms to submit a definition or two, or ten... I'd be more than happy to add it, or update it. I will look in to having a user-editable Encyclopedia in the future though.

What I'd really like to do is tweak your stylesheet.

You should use unitedtrackers.com instead of united-trackers.org in the activation e-mail until the DNS is propagated.
Some may have problem activating their account because of this (as DJ Mirage told me).

just replied over there to the thread. I also tested the login myself, and the login issues should be fixed... Now if only the old domain would switch over...

One small messy thing I noticed... when you post on the forum as the smilies load the page is strectched wider than my screen (1024) but then quickly corrects itself after the smilies load. All this requires is the correct WIDTH and HEIGHT settings.
Also are the T-shirts still available??? I always did want to order one

I'm currently working on a new theme though which is much better. Only need to find some suitable colors and a little tweaking.
