so how are we going to set up the new graphics forums?

[biru biru]

I was enthused by the ranking system based on post counts, happy that I seemed to be advancing in rank, and a little dissapointed when my reank dropped back to settler, and though I had not made it to a custom avatar yet, was looking forward to getting there sooner than plausibly. I second the motion for compensation posts, barring reasonable substitute, and recommend 628 posts for myself. seriously too.

Nope, it will take just one voice. MarkG's voice to be precise.

Ancient/Pre-Steam Unit Graphics
Industrial Unit Graphics
WW2 Unit Graphics
Modern Unit Graphics
SciFi/Fantasy Unit Graphics
City Graphics Showcase
Other Graphics Showcase

Any dissenters? Speak now or forever hold your peace.

Merge city and other. While there's been lots of good city art lately, overall there's not enough for a stand alone thread. Ditto for 'other'.

[Sarsstock]

I agree with techumseh, city graphics, icon graphics, people graphics and terrains should all be mixed together as they are often the neglected fields of graphics.

When can we expect to see these threads up and running again?

[Broken_Erika]

so, where do you think i should put the ToT multi-units collection i made, it only has about 240 units in it, the units range from bronze age to modern, and everything in between,
edit to avoid spam: i'll wait a bit,

[St Leo]

Anywhere and everywhere.

But don't spam.

Just what is going on? The two days that were supposedly required to restore the threads have elapsed, and I see Leo has posted new graphics threads. While I appreciate that people are undoubtedly beavering away behind the scenes to restore the threads, it doesn't help to keep everyone in the dark. Are the threads recoverable, and if so how much is salvageable? When will the restoration work be complete? What is happening with regard to the SLeague forum changes that have been mooted?

[CapTVK]

Just give the admins some time. They said they would restore the forum as far as possible and have no doubt they will.

I have a feeling that restoring those threads (plus the images) from a backup takes a lot of handywork.

That's because MarkG is keeping us posted in the Apolyton/Community forum. In a topped thread no less. The Apolyton/Community forum is the proper place for discussions regarding, well, Apolyton.

What is happening with regard to the SLeague forum changes that have been mooted?

St Leo already put up a forum index thread. The rest that's being discussed isn't about the forum, but about the SLeague website... And that discussion is ongoing in techumseh's "SL New Look" thread.

[St Leo]

People wanted to retire the unwieldy old threads, so I created new ones. The old champions will return in the near future, but they will probably be retired then (unless the community's sentiment reverses).

[Panda]

As long as we can recover the image attachments we can create indexes, and discard the +1s

[Sarsstock]

Well I glad the forum seems to be up and running, for the most part at least. I just hope a solution can be found to the problem of having the forum members demoted in rank as a result of the deletion.

[St Leo]

You will all be repromoted soon. Honest.
