AnthroAsia

1. // I'm not sure if anyone noticed this, but since a few nights ago I tried to utilise the avatar feature to attach it to the posts. It came out rather arkwardly, and I just can't find a way around it so that it'll come out right. So now, I've decided to just do away with the avatars on posts. You can still upload them as you wish though.

2. // Last night, Dobb and I made an IRC channel for AnthroAsia. Originally it was located at Chat4all, but then we later shifted it to FurNet's servers. Having furries as fellow channelers is much better.

Anyways, you guys can access it at irc.furnet.org, channel name is #AnthroAsia. You can refer to this post at the forums for more details on getting on the chatroom, as well as getting times that various local furs that might be free.

I spent most of my Friday night uploading an entirely new Gallery system for the site. You can upload your pics through the gallery, and there's also a commenting system, it's a trick that I found out through the Gallery forums.

And in addition, there's now a spiffy new search box at the top right corner of the page!

I'm not even done with customising the site yet actually, so there's more to come.

I can say that I'm very pleased for finding this CMS, albeit it was found with a stroke of luck. I think I would have a hell of a time if I were to start from scratch. So, I'm one lucky panther! xD

It's not easy finding the perfect software to use, especially considering it has to look slick as well as be user-friendly. That's the reason I chose using Drupal for the website and MyBB for the forums.

I do realise the hassle of using two different systems, but I think that this hassle will sooner or later be solved. Somebody has already created seamless integration for Drupal and vBulletin, resulting in this nifty software called vbDrupal.
