love,

sounds like some exciting times Diz
i too miss the whole 'community' part of the site....but i have less time for it nowadays, which is why im just enjoying the porn for now.

I dont really have any ideas or anything in making it better, Im happy with the way it is....but thats from someone who is linmiting his time to checking out the porn

i like the dark themes...so dont make them too bright, alot of us are on here late at night when working etc...so brightness = crap

bringing the site back to when the community was number one is an awesome idea, although maybe hard...good times were had then in the forums...it be nice to get that back again

might make us old timers more active again, who knows

the colours from the steam forum are really good...happy with that choice

Just a question. Are you planning on doing only 1 theme for it, or will there be a another (lighter) theme available. I don't dislike what you've done so far, I'm just curious to see what it'll look like on a forum page, and if it'll be too dark for me.

I'm wondering the same thing as Sugarpie about an alternate (lighter) theme.

About the last screenshot :
- put the babe a bit more to the left so that she's not perfectly lined up with the menu (that's always strange when everything is lined up).
- try with some (blue) color on the Account Setting div background (to remind the banner).
- for security concern, perhaps ask the current password to be able to change it.
- (Icons are a bit too "windows-like" to me but that's just a matter of taste ^^)

Can't wait to see other update

Things I have finished:
× Register new account
× Activate new account
× Retrieve new password
× Retrieve activation details
× Edit basic profile stuff (Gender, Birthday, Signature)
× Manage Avatar
× Geolocation (Country, State/Province)
× Edit account details (Username, Email, Password)
× Notification settings
× Privacy settings
× Language settings (as new version will support localisation and language)
× Private messaging system: Inbox / Outbox / Trash / Blocklist / Send message ) (Yes in new WBW you can block people)
× Logout
× Parts of "delete your account" are in place.

I am now going to start working on the picture section, I am going to drop the "adult filter" as this is little bit overkill on a adult site and it makes the database slower for extra search query.

These icons are from old WBW (was a free icon set). If you have nice new icon sets I welcome them 16x16 are the icons. I am still lookin' for some other nice smiles to use, as these bellow are getting old. I will take your advice and will try to fix some stuff up Maybe I will put an alpha online, to let you guys judge even harder

Yes there will be multiple themes, maybe some people could create them in the future when everything is finished.

I will start working on a portable version if I finish the new WBW. As new WBW will have a totally redesigned database, and I am changing a lot while working on it.

I like the new look. Clean and easy to navigate while focusing on the content which what we all really want. Dark background will make the images pop more. Not fond of the logo in the top left hand corner. Seems too fun and needs more edge to it. I'm no graphic artist so I wish I could give more constructive criticism here.

Always happy to contribute and give my feedback and now that my wife is posted here I have more incentive!

Keep up the good work

Thanks for the feedback, even the small feedback helps! so everybody keep it coming!

I will put an alpha version online when I have finished more. So you guys/girls can give more criticism, as this new WBW must be as perfect and community tested and approved as possible.

That would be great !

About the picture gallery, as I already said before, pictures should be able to be in more than one category.
Or you can just remove the category current system and let the tag system replace it :
When a picture is accepted, the picture mod just choose a few tags that match the current categories (after that, members will be able to add other tags of course). You then just have to keep the current categories sections in the gallery but the database will find the pictures by looking at the tags instead of the category (for example : bahroom babes section would contain all the pictures tagged with "bathroom", "toilet", "restroom", "shower", "bath", "tub" ).

With this system, all the new pictures would at least have a few tags so that we can find them in the tagsearch or in the differents sections (or that would allow you to add new sections in the gallery without changing anything. For example, if you want to add a "Outdoor babes" section later, you just have to define it as all the picture tagged with "outdoor", "woods", "snow" etc. and you have a fresh category full of pictures ^^)

What do you think of this ?

Please add in the Tag search search for Rating. Where you select Rating value and searches for items ___ value or above.

I agree with pimp daddy.

Perhaps it's time to redesign/think of getting rid of the level names? People still can't figure it out.

All sounds great but when is the Iphone/Ipad app coming?

haha i remember those tits

After I finish the new WBW I start with iPhone/iPad/Android/Mobile compatible layout. I have to finish redsigning everything before I can start working on something like that. The database is being re-designed too.

Quick screenie

The idea of the new version is to add some kind of status that reflects your standing in the community based on activity and other stuff.

I think that Sugarpie meant that we see more the rank than the name of the member so that someone new here and used to other forum will think that "Stalker" is my username ^^

Gallery page seems good

Any though about my last suggestion about the category/tag system by the way ?

I don't think that is a design problem, more of a literacy issue. Other website use a similar system for rankings and rarely a problem with names.
