Since this is about helping how to build a forum, I will move this into 'Suggestions and Help'

Oh, I really hope that you're not just here to get help/advertise for your forums...

So, you want to know how to make a really great forum? Well, I'm not too big on making forum skins so you should really ask Freya since she has more experience than I do.

But what I can tell you on how to make a good forum, it's all about the members and the content. I mean, you can have really great topics but your members could be just spammers, may get out of hand, or not contribute at all. Or, it could be vice-versa. Great members, but not alot of variety of topics to chose from to form great discussions. Needless to say, the forum content and the members balance each other out to make one great forum to hang around. So try to keep that in mind.

i may beable to help you After it is meh that made this *loves showing off*

Well so maybe hopfully i'll write out a guide that will help you make a forum somewhat like this although it will probalby take about in a time limit of 3days-2 weeks *is a extreme daydreamer and forgets alot* lol ^^

So maybe hopfully in like a week i hope to get done in a week or so k?

I need to know how to post banners lik the one at the top. I will post more help as I go through the process.

You can post any image or website with the "http://" button right next to all of the writing formats and quotes etc. After u click on that u copy and paste the web address of the image/website on the icon that will appear.

Or u can do it another way but this only works on images that you can click on the "IMG" button located near the "http://" button, after that post the web address for the image and post it after the "IMG" mark that will appear when u click the button, after that just press the "IMG" button again and it will allow u to post that image.

However please do not post a image that will stretch the web page for that particular topic as it is usaually against our rules and u may get a minor warning.

So i hope that helped you and if not ask any of the other members or teams of the forums they might make it clearly for you.

Hey, I can make a banner! Just give me an image and I'll do a quickie for you to advertise! If it's a fan art, just get permission first and tell who it is so I can credit and stuff! Then I will give you the codes.

Hey guys, I decided to merge the two topics because LinkKOC (Linkkeeperofcourage) will need help with their forum as time goes on, and if other people need help and such for a forum, they can post here! If you disagree with this merge, feel free to PM me or another Admin/mod to undo it. (And if you, other Admins/Mods, don't like this merge, feel free to split it. XD)

When need more help, be sure to post it here! Try to avoid opening up a new thread if it has to do with Forum work. Anything else, feel free to start a new topic as long as there isn't an exsisting one like it!

First I need to figure out how to invite people to be admins and moderators.

(I will pos along help as I go)

Well, you need people to join then you can make then staff...
