We need a style contest

FluxBB needs to get away from the old PunBB image wink

Nothing against Oxygen, I really like it... it should still be kept in the normal source distribution.

But maybe we could do a style contest.
1st price | would be the new default style
2nd price | would be distributed with the source package
3rd price | would be distributed with the source package

What about it?

Re: We need a style contest

Lets wait until all the markup changes are done... no need to start developing styles until then anyway!

Re: We need a style contest

I have a feeling that the developers will want to keep Oxygen as the default style - for both FluxBB itself and the FluxBB website.

Perhaps: 1st prize = packaged with Flux
2nd & 3rd = Don't exist

I presume that Flux 1.3 will be packaged with all of these: Cobalt, Lithium, Mercury, Oxygen, Radium, and Sulfur?

Re: We need a style contest

FluxBB should stop using Oxygen. It should include "Hydrogen".

Because Hydrogen is lighter than Oxygen.

1- because fluxbb willl look bitter in the eyes of new people if any other beautiful style is placed. and will attract more people to it. for example usebb has a very good style and is very attractive because of that they have too many members but they are may be as good as punbb 1.2. lol


well i personally like oxygen because its easy to read and etc. like google.
just curios i dont know the history, why was it called oxygen.
may be because its easy to read thats why its easy to breath .. so oxygen .. lol

None of the devs have said there will even be a contest yet, so speculating in the winner is pretty pointless imo.

You can't judge if I'm able to beat him. tongue

If there is a contest, official or by the users, we'll see who wins. smile

I think you just proved my point. But I'll shut up now.

I think this idea about a user-created style being packed with 1.3 is, overall, a good idea. Obviously, it would have to be scrutinized by the developers to iron out any inconsistencies or problems - but I think it would be good to have community input.
