Default FMFormation is back and how....

Dear members,

After two days of being closed we are now back and in our eyes better than ever. A totally new design and layout brings FMF one step closer to the top. We hope that you all like it and that FMF will become or will stay your home for FM. To make sure you won't miss out on any of the features here @ FMF we will tell you what has changed, what has added and what has been removed.

First we would like to apology for the fact that the database installed on this new site is one from Saturday 5 May 2007 6PM. We know that the old site was online on Sunday but unfortunately the posts made on that day are not included, same goes for the members who signed up on Sunday. Sorry about that!

New Features:
  • A totally new design and layout! Enjoy the white and green.
  • Live feed of new posts and threads; click @ the left on New Posts Feed and get a real-time of new posts and threads. When someone makes a posts it will instantly appear on that page! Because this is a different system then the software we use for our site and forum we can't add the left column or add the shoutbox. An option is to open your browser twice, one for the site and one for the feed.
  • Shoutbox on every page; Enjoy the shoutbox on every page. Doesn't matter if you're on the home of the forum or inside a topic. The shoutbox won't leave you!
  • Time spend on FMF; Click on it in the Navigation Menu. Fun to see who has been how long online. Also viewable in someone's profile.
  • Advanced Forum Statistics; Every FM fan loves statistics so why not add some on the site? When you are on the forum of the forum, go all the way down and you will see some nice statistics. Want to see more? Click on Top Statistics @ the left in the Navigation Menu.
  • Member who have posted today; Again something that has been added on the home of the forum. At the bottom you will see the number of people who have posted today and when you click on the you will see the names. Gotta love those little add-ons don't you?

Changes Features:
  • Where are my bucks; That's right! A new site and that means a new start. Every member got 25 bucks to start with. Start posting and start winning some bets @ vBookie!
  • The Arcade has been cleared; All the stats have been set to zero. Now that more people know about the Arcade we can hopefully get some challenging highscores and maybe some interesting tournaments.
  • CountryFlags. As most of you might have noticed, when you filled in your country @ your profile, it automaticly showed the countryflag when you made a post. Well, it is still there but it has been reset for all the members. So if you read this, go to your profile and fill in your country!

Removed Features:
  • Posts and members of Sunday 6 May 2007; It has been mentioned before and again, we apologize! If you signed up on that day please make the same account again.
  • QuoteIt!; Even tho it is a very nice feature it won't be on FMF at the moment. The quotes have been saved but for now I don't see any room to put it in. QuoteIt! takes up a lot of space and makes the site looks less organized.


That's basicly it! Some things are new, some changes and some are gone. We do think that FMF has improved big time once again and now it's up to you guys to get FMF more and more active by posting and interact with other FM fans!

Thanks for your attention.

Best regards,


FMF Crew

This new lay out will bring FMF so much more activity and bring in a fresh batch of youngsters(as the saying on FM for youngsters ;) ). Im hoping every member reading this will up their game on being a unique member they are and bring more life into FMF to make it the number 1 spot for FM as it alreaady is my home for FM!

Also a MASSIVE thank you is deffantly rewarded to Bozza for basicly everything he puts into FMF, and Bozza we all know how much work you put in well i do and im so grateful for this and in return i will show all the FM fans out there this is the place for FM.

Another thanks to everyone for making this site massive for all we do need you to make a FM site big! always remember that!

So again this new lay out WILL bring more life into FMF, with it being a green background etc...(in my view green is better than blue as FM has green in most of it in a way).

See you all around while were making this the number 1 home for all FM fans!

Boyce!

Thanks for the positive comments guys. I hope you will learn to like it Bfc, it's always good to see you @ FMF and I hope this won't keep you away.

As for the old skin, I've disabled it for now because some things have to be changed in the skin and like Fedorico Roma Fan mentioned, it's not fully working with this new design.

Don't worry. =P. Not even having the web site in pink would keep me away. Haha.

I like it, seems much fresher and clearer now. Think the colours go nicely etc, but I could just be saying all this cos I'm in a good mood as Derby have just equalised against Scum.

Play Up Derby!
