Well, you heard Jeff mention the premium membership service and some may be wondering how to get there! You must go to your - User Control Panel - then - Miscellaneous - then - Paid subscriptions - click and order up everyone ! Premium Membership includes : Owner gallery (20 MB disk Quota) Your Username in Gold with increased 300 message limit
Just curios, in the future will it be including large avatars, larger sigs and possible special area access? Just was thinking off the top of my head. I also agree with the sticker idea!
Thank you for signing up to the premium membership. . . This question is best suited for admin. so Ill give him the chance to chime in . . . Thank you for your questions and inquiries . . .
I don't think we'll be changing the avatar or signature size based on membership level. As it is right now, everyone can use (or upload) an avatar up to 30K. Signatures are limited to 500x100 pixels, which is a good width that won't disrupt the flow of conversation or the site graphics. I'm still considering other upgrade features, but as far as the stickers go, members who upgrade their account will get discounted pricing on most merchandise items that we'll be offering soon. Jeff
When I was a mod at my old forums "twisted mods" We had an area that was only for moderators, and premium members. It was called area 51. You could not see it, till you were a mod or premium. Was cool to have a place to toss forum ideas around without the general population commenting on it till it was ready...lol kinda like a teachers lounge
i don't like the idea of seperate areas. i have seen them on several forums and it seems to be the downfall of the forum. its like creating a class system. this forum is really friendly and helpful and i would hate to see that ruined.
Admin and mods should have their own little spot to calaborate ideas and manage the site, but seperating premium members and standard members could start a segregation of ideas that could be, should be shared with all members in my opinion. I know there are alote of ways to break down forums thou' . . .
funny part was no one really used it. Everyone wanted to be in it, then once they were, they did not post there...lol Agreed there. if you need a sig bigger then mine, something is wrong with you...lol
