Why Does?

[Bad Wolf]

Back in the day i was like YEah attacking a asgard planet but now im like Yeah ok but not much fun now with a race called Hobo or something.

Amusing.

Yes if they can make a banner that won't make MGM mad about Stargate copyrights then go for it I say.

Or.. we use Egyptian/Norse symbolism from the public domain.
Bad Wolf raises a good point. At one time the banners and layout were upgraded by DarkDayz, but they were never really seamlessly put together. It might be interesting to explore that. Could talk to Jason about it at the meet, although I think he's got his hands full with the updates.

Bad Wolf always does.

The Man Behind the Curtain

The reason why the forums still bare the name StarGateWars and that 2 of the skins are heavily "stargaterised" is because there is no money being made from the forums. Yes there's a market section for the game that has a $$ aspect to it, but forums are meant as a communication tool.

This is why the forum can still be called StargateWars.

The reason the game had to change is because the game generates money for the owner.

Wasn't it DarkDayz or something like that who did the side menu designs?

But yeah, the forums and game could do with an overhaul that makes them both look cleaner, more professional and gives the game a bit more identity....afterall, we still need to be attracting new people....
