My First Impressions

If I may say, this forum software, which I heard was built from scratch is very nice looking. One thing I'm worried about is the No Username Required field. I just hope Captian' is ready for a flood of spam, which could happen any minute. I like the friendly interface It's clean and from what I read in another community the future of this website seems very promising.

Everything else seems to be good looking, Aside from the Smilies I personally think you should just use a Pop-out window, that way you can have a bigger amount of Smilies. Anyway Good luck Captian'!

*Update* - I just noticed your smilie Codes (For instance the banana is long, maybe you should shorten it.

Thanks for your posts and e-mail, Ghost.

Incidentally I already dealt with a bunch of 4chan people flooding ASCII art of certain body parts and so on but it was nothing that couldn't be dealth with quickly through some MySQL statements. Captcha will be going live again later with code allowing IPs to only have to validate themselves one or two times.

Interesting idea about the smiley interface. The thing is that most browsers would load all the images even those inside hidden Divs that are not yet into view, which would be a bit of a load on the server.

Once again-- appreciate your input, Yeargh.com is a work in progress and there's a lot more to come.

Shiver me timbers!
