I have downloaded "phpBB" which is the same software that Egosoft use for their forums. All I have to do now is figure out how to use it, anyone ? . .

Try the PHPBB Support pages first of all. The Support Forum is also worth a try.

Strange. When I posted them they loaded very quicky but now they are slow, as you say. I expect the site will be back to normal pretty soon.

A question about scrips, and indeed about the general level of usage?

Does anyone here use scripts? I have installed the Massive War so I can have a bit of fun and at least the bad guys fight back :) I have witnessed a Xenon invasion into Argon Prime and loved it.

Has anyone else tried it?

Yeh I felt like that too until I realised the war mod has a little script inside it that allows you to create as much wealth as you like and therein create your fleet as required.

1.4 looks to be a real godsend from what i see on the main forum. There is a nice long thread about it.

When you say graphics etc do you want me to figure a proper logo out for the group? Rather than just a banner? If so I will work on a few, just time of course is required...

Basically I need everything. :)

I have downloaded the web pack from Egosoft, but we need evrything apart from the background, including helpfull text about the plot & the best way(s) we, as a group, can then offer others who log on to our site.

I'm currently trying to get my head around this Web Publishing software & time is running out! So any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks. :D
