Fuyagare: One of the joys of using a third-party product is that I can sometimes blame it for when things go wrong. This is one of those happy occasions. I'll look into it...
tracicle: The work involved in setting up the skin is mostly stripping out Viewropa stuff like taz's design, Quote of the day, etc. Then I'd need to tidy up the code before opening it up for public scrutiny.
It should be noted that even though it's called a "skin" it isn't just the appearance of the site, but in fact the engine of the site.
alcarilinque: We've not chosen to exclude anyone, however we're reliant on the locales provided with b2evolution. We're also reliant on having 2-3 moderators to moderate posts in that language. I think we'd love to have these languages on the site.
Hi, I'm known as dodgygeezer on Viewropa (and MeFi) and did the development of the Viewropa site
I'll take this post to recommend to tracicle & Richer that b2evolution also seems worthy of consideration for MoFi v2
I've had vague plans from day one of creating a MeFi-a-like skin for b2evo and hopefully once development of Viewropa settles down I'll get a chance to do it. Having said that, I get the impression that folk round here are pretty happy developing what they've already got and I can certainly respect that.
Anyway guys, thanks for the link. I hope you all get a chance to pop by and that you like what you see.
