Should we have an "introduce yourself" section where new members can tell us a little bit about themselves (and their own set-up) and existing members can say "hello and welcome" to them?
Yes / no, please do feel free to let rip with your comments...

Yes, that seems like a good idea.
And while we are canvassing opinion on the content of the board . . .
Hopefully, things are starting to move now, after being pretty stagnant for a while, so what about sub-folders under the major headings?

Could be nice, do you guys want a sub-category under GENERAL DISCUSSIONS or a new main category?

Hmm, I was thinking, adding it as a new main category, so it is very easy for new members to find
If possible, adding it as the top most category on the board index page.

Can a favicon be added to the forum as well ?

Also we don't have a favicon

A favicon is a small picture (icon) that appears in a users links bar or links tab.
See
Sinclair ZX World forum for an example

The Sinclair ZX World. forum uses this code:
Code: Select all
<LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="http://www.sinclairzxworld.com/favicon.ico" />
Or as shown in one of the links I give above:
Code: Select all
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="images/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" /> in the head of your document, where the path is to your image (named favicon.ico )

Of course we do need to decide what 16 x 16 image to use... Suggestions please

Not bad too.
We could have a vote on it - unless there are any more contenders ?
