As most of you guys know, I have been saying some stuff about "Reconstruction" and new features, and some of you guys wanted to know what I meant by that exactly.

Well, it's a work in progress, and I'm not going to tell you guys everything now, but expect some major updates for Battery Acid.  I'll be updating this thread with more information about the new updates, so stay tuned.

UPDATE TWO
Chat is now up!  There is a link on the Battery Acid homepage, aswell as the forums.  There is now a link to the homepage on the forums too.
Update one
This won't come as big news to most of you, but I am now a writer for Battery Acid.  I'm also piloting all of these updates and new features (Of course Greenyz is still in charge!).  So with me being a new writer, expect new features such as Reviews, Podcasts, Videos, and much more...

I like the idea of having a chat. Actually, I would love a chat. The problem is, I don't think there are enough active users here to make it worth getting. I think that as our member list increases, though, that you should look into getting a chat here somehow.

getting a chat for a site is very easy (just use xat chat) google it

get the html code, customize it to your liking, and then copy the code onto a new page and a a link to the nav bar

The only problem with having a chat on battery acid is-- Wordpress doesn't support the Flash/HTML the chatbox uses.  Therefore, I'm going to have to make a leakybattery.webs (make it a basic HTML site, just chat and a link to go back to battery acid).  I'll the put the link to the .webs site on the real site.

No, it's not.  Once again my big screen makes stuff look all funky for everyone else.  I'm working on a fix now, also, I'll put a link in the nav bar.

Edit: Fixed (?) I made the buttons smaller and put the two links on the nav bar.  Also, to make the thingy fit your screen, Qball, I made the Battery Acid bot smaller and moved him over.  Yet I am now on the fence on whether I should keep the bot guy or not, as it looks a bit awkward.  So, I decided I'd let the community decide the fate of the lovable bot, so, your thoughts?

Also, I put that page together in like a few minutes, so if there is anything you'd like me to change, tell me. Plus, that skin for the chat that I made is pretty cool, eh?  (Althought I understand some people don't like the white background on the chat...)

yo yeah. looks good. thanks for the nav bar buttons hehe.. glad u could add that..and the smaller banner looks good

hmm...if u want bot guy battery robot ..thing...out, u could make it look fine if u just moved the "Battery Acid" over
and then stacked Home on Chat on teh far right (not right at teh edge though)

unless u want him there still...doesn't matter to me

"Plus, that skin for the chat that I made is pretty cool, eh?  (Althought I understand some people don't like the white background on the chat...)"

yes. very cool with all the stuff lining up...i still like mine better...hehe. just because i made it though.. http://qball8.webs.com/test.htm
white background on chat?!? now who would care about a thing like that?!?
