JasonH Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Hey everyone, I thought I would get a poll going on whether or not you guys would like the AVIC Series Categories organized. How it is now: AVIC D1/D2/D3 |-General |-Problems |-Hacks AVIC N1/N2/N3/N4 |-General |-Problems |-Hacks AVIC Z1/Z2/Z3 |-General |-Problems |-Hacks AVIC F Series |-Pre Release Archive |-General |-Problems |-Hacks Proposed New Layout: Pioneer AVIC Navigation Units [*:hzts39bl]D Series (General) [*:hzts39bl]Problems [*:hzts39bl]Hacks [*:hzts39bl]N Series (General) [*:hzts39bl]Problems [*:hzts39bl]Hacks [*:hzts39bl]F Series (General) [*:hzts39bl]Problems [*:hzts39bl]Hacks [*:hzts39bl]Z Series (General) [*:hzts39bl]Problems [*:hzts39bl]Hacks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dumpystig Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Hi Jason, I'm not sure about getting rid of the 'General' categories, I suppose it depends on how much they are used, if not much then sure, no point in them being here. But I reckon most users come here either with a problem or to give/get a hack. I think a good idea would be to put the series in alphabetical order, makes more sense, to me anyway. BTW, I'm now having to log in each time I visit even though I've clicked the 'remember me' box....... Great forum, thanks for all the work you do Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thumper24 Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 How about keeping the existing category organization, but add a section to each specifically for graphic updates. So, a central location for each AVIC series where everyone can post their themes, backgrounds, icons, etc. In any event, thanks for keeping up this BB... it's very helpful.

JasonH Posted March 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Er, I should have made it more clear. General would now be the category name, for evample "D Series" would be General. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DSMKilla Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 I think the categories are fine. Whats up with the new colors though, I vote to go back to the old ones. These new ones are hard on the eyes IMO. Also need to get rid of the phpBB logo at the top of the forum.. Also if you wanted to get real creative you could consider putting a skin on the forum. Check out http://www.extremepixels.com and see if there is anything you like. If so let me know, I have pretty much all the skins that are on there. I have more for vBulletin though since that is what I am running on my forum but I do have quite a few for phpBB saved as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JasonH Posted March 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Yeah, I know, this theme is killing me. I'm working on making a AVIC themed forum using images from the F Series. Also need to get rid of the phpBB logo at the top of the forum.. Fixed it for ya, lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Paladin Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 I also personally think one should be added for themes/graphics/icons etc... At least for the "F" series. Leave the rest as is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LonestarROB Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 What kind of theme you looking to do? A dark or light theme? Color scheme? Do you have a specific theme in mind? If so, which ones are you looking at? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CaptainInsaneO Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 I think it's going to look something like the homepage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dianebrat Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 I like the new proposed layout now that you've explained that the core will be a "General" with the subs under them. But is it worth considering a dedicated "Installation issues and questions" in each area? I ask since it seems like there are a ton of install questions that come up over, and over, and over every time someone finds the forums, and those issues are very different from the other informational categories.

rareform Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 The current layout is good, maybe add a D/L section to each area for the main developers and you to mantain with the data files and mods lists for download - each would need a link back to the corresponding forum entry but would make downloading easy. Thanks, Great site!! Would be good to add a how to or guides section - no replies just walk throughs on each model and mod. Would be more than happy to help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
