Title: New Feature: Spotlights+


Lothlómendil - January 14, 2007 02:52 AM (GMT)
We have spent the last few days working on a new feature and we've finally completed it! :w00t: We're really excited about it and we hope that you will be too. We've changed the "Voting and Affiliates" page to a multi-paged section for members to get involved. :) The first of these sections is the most important, we feel. We now have what we call the "Member Spotlight" section where each week we pick a new member to spotlight for various reasons. We also have a topic of the month and quotes of the week, all from members like you! We hope to add to this particular section, and at times when we have competitions the winners will be displayed there. For your reference, the link to this tabbed interactive section is at the top left of the board under the banner.

There are other sections, too. The page is tabbed with several buttons at the top. There is a voting page, an affiliates page, and also a "Meet the Staff" section! The meet the staff section doesn't have all the staff in it yet, but it soon enough everyone will get their info submitted and we'll put it up for everyone to see. It's basically a page with info about each of us so that you can all get to know us better. :)

We hope you enjoy this and make good use of it, take a peek every day to vote and also to see what new changes will be made. Be sure to check out who is this week's member in the spotlight and wish them a congratulations! The topic of the month and the quotes of the week are also worth checking out, everything should be interesting.

If you have any suggestions for things we can add, just let us know either here or in the suggestions forum. Hope you enjoy! :w00t:

Good Job Sofia! Rawr! RAwr to you!

Hmm, this wasn't what I was expecting. You should sooo also put up who's winning in the Arda DoW duel.

*aims to be the character spotlight of...next week!?*

This will get updated on Saturdays, I'm assuming?

Sanzen - January 14, 2007 03:01 AM (GMT)
Ita doesn't have a picture in the staff ^^

Nice job guys, the spotlights help make the board more entertaining :lol:

Lothlómendil - January 14, 2007 03:02 AM (GMT)
We'll probably do the updates on the weekends, yeah. And sorry, but the main spotlight is for new members only! :p

Puppet Boy - January 14, 2007 04:37 AM (GMT)
That's really awesome. Hopefully it will spark some more interest out of people. It must have taken a lot of work to get this together guys. Thanks a bunch.

Alba Meria - January 14, 2007 05:28 AM (GMT)

This section is bound to be a fun part of the site. Awesome work Loth (and/or other involved parties).

Darkfire - January 14, 2007 08:04 PM (GMT)
Sounds like a fun idea *nods* 'Course, I'm probably never going to see me or a quote from me on there, but oh well.

I really like the new page, especially the quote of the week. :) Thanks for all the work you put into this site!

Aloric - January 15, 2007 05:08 AM (GMT)
Wow. I'm appalled by the amount of creativity and ingenuity. Absolutely appalled!

Great job once again, Admins. Job well done. And you're always getting better :D What will they think of next?!?!

Obsidian Nocturne - January 18, 2007 01:58 AM (GMT)
looks like the admins have been pretty busy adding stuff again eh? :) Glad to know we can finally check out your pictures :lol:

Lothlómendil - January 25, 2007 12:09 AM (GMT)
The spotlight has been updated for this week, everyone can feel free to go find out who the new spotlight member is and say congrats! ^_^

Alba Meria - January 25, 2007 12:20 AM (GMT)
Will there be an Announcement here each time it is updated?

Forgotten - January 25, 2007 12:27 AM (GMT)
Of course there will be. How else will we know about the new member?!? Yay for ..... should I say the name? I think I will let everyone else go look her up. :D

Lothlómendil - January 25, 2007 12:38 AM (GMT)
I haven't decided yet about an announcement every time, I'm still thinking. I think if I don't announce it, people will forget and that's not what we want. But for those that are curious I'll be doing the update to the spotlight every weekend unless something comes up like it did this weekend and I didn't have the internet for a few days.

St. Sorrow - January 25, 2007 01:12 AM (GMT)
Perhaps you could just bump the topic, so that those of us who watch the active topics page would know about it without you really having to post every time?

Just an idea.

Congrats to the new spotlight!

Grégoire Del Istolla - January 26, 2007 05:39 PM (GMT)
w00t! Twice now on the quote list. Gotta keep it up... Part of the plan for world domination.

Alba Meria - January 26, 2007 10:09 PM (GMT)
Wonder if you can make it in each week of the month :D

Demetrio Vasquez - January 27, 2007 04:01 AM (GMT)
Why does everything totally awesome happen when I'm gone!!!!!!!

NOOOO!!! Must make myself a spotlight :D

Oh, and congrats Greg on being a Virtuous.

Lothlómendil - February 2, 2007 07:33 PM (GMT)
The new member spotlight is up! Everyone say congrats to our newest spotlighter. I've also fully updated the Meet the Staff page and all staff that have submitted their info are up. We also have some new affiliates, and would like to remind you all to vote for Arda. ^_^
