What do you want to see from OTS in the future?

[Canis Lupus]

Since we are in the last stages of a script upgrade, I guess now would be a good time to test it by putting up a poll!

So what do you want to see from OTS in the future? Don't be shy, give us a piece of your mind...

[Outlaw]

"Thank you for voting, you will now be taken back to the poll"
I somehow ended up on the main page, nowhere near the poll (or the forum for that matter) :)

anyway, I like guides. Like: "how to make a dual boot system with Redhat 7.1 and Windows 98 on your onboard Highpoint RAID-controller (with 2 HD's on RAID 0)" :D

ooh look, my 300th post, what do I win?:p

[Swilo]

After hitting vote it took me to the "Please wait while we return you to such and such" screen, as usual. But from there it took me back to the main page instead of the forums...

[Canis Lupus]

Hehe, few more bugs ... thanks, working on it ;)

[Null Actor]

I want to see more scantily clad women!!!

:D

[Swilo]

Indeed..!

[Bobaroo]

Yep, those damn bugs, gotta get rid of em all...ehe..

[TheeMon]

[TheeMon]

[Canis Lupus]

Problem fixed ... it should redirect you guys back to this thread, whether you vote from the front page or from this thread ;)

[Chako]

Yep....Laggy is always right...it is fixed...at least when I went to vote.:D

[Mr.Dragon]

how about a different background color.. say pink... er... uh... forget i said that plz :D :D

[Kdr Kane]

Since there seems to be some requests for guides, I'd be interested in what type of guides would like to be seen.

[Outlaw]

I'd like to see a Linux guide, I once managed to get it (Redhat 7.1) on my comp but when I had both Linux and windows on it, it wouldn't boot anymore. If I installed only Linux, it started normally, I think it had something to do with my (unsupported) RAID controller, there was a disk for it from the manufacturer but then I got into the text mode and since I don't know any commands I wanted the graphical mode.

I also know that there are many different versions of Linux (Redhat, Mandrake, etc.) but I wouldn't know the difference between them so I just picked one.

The file types didn't make much sense to me either....I got a long road ahead of me if I ever want Linux to be my primary OS :)

[Nfested]

I voted for guides.

How about an overclocking guide? I know that a lot of you already know how to overclock, but I have no idea how.

[Bobaroo]

Yea an overclockign guide would be cool, i am not sure how to do it. I also like guides on building PC's, like the one on the black Athlon awhile back

[EOT(US)]

Guides for "Dummies" on HTML stuff ..... like errrrrr coding to put MP3's on website's ..... *ahem* :D

[Ion Silverbolt]

I have a couple video troubleshooting guides up in case no one ever checks there. :)

The hard part about guides is making them unique since so many other hardware sites have similiar guides.

[Nfested]

There are other hardware sites? Uhhh...lol the only other one I know is anandtech.com but I feel too alienated by their technical terms and their articles seem too pretentious in a "I know more stuff about computers than you haha sucks for you" way.

The site looks all organized and professional though.

[Bobaroo]

Yea i have seen other site like that, i don't like them either. I love this site and TG is pretty good.

[SKYHN]

I wanna see more Jaggies!:)

Inserting music into webpages? Have a look here:

[Dabom]

Any time. That's where I started out with HTML. :)

What's this we stuff? :)

[SKYHN]

how about...

Being able to specify, in user cp or wherever, a default font for all your messages to be in?

I hate to have to keep setting up my font, so I just quit doing it.

Or is that already on here?(if so, i dont know where it is!)

[Canis Lupus]

Unfortunately, that feature isn't built into the message board script ... maybe it could be hacked in, but I don't wanna bother - I like the font the way it is ;)

[Kdr Kane]

I like them to b generally the same. It makes the board neater. You should have to change the fonts if you want to make a statement.

[laborat]

How about a HitchHiker's Guide to the Cyberspace?

[Spork Lover]

I would like to see a guide on how to properly mount a heatsink to cpu.... along with pics of course.. I have gotten this one wrong a few times, resulting in poor cooling. Also how to not use too much thermal paste(maybe combine the two?)

[PhantomGamer]

I voted for more articals
because i like reading them and answering them:D

[Tecil]

I voted more articles too. Stupid me was about 90% finished with my classic gaming write up but forgot to e-mail it to myself from work. :(
