Over the past couple days I have made some changes to BitBangers, some quite noticeable and others not so.
Most of you should have already noticed the biggest changed to BitBangers. Our theme has had a slight upgrade to a more lighter and flatter version. We have kept the classic forum look and feel as I do not think there is anything better. Our old theme was unique but in my opinion it was a bit nooby and not very modern. You don’t see many forums these days that have dark themes. I want BitBangers to have a more modern look and feel to it and I hope this theme pulls it off.
If you notice any issues with the theme let me know and I’ll fix them as soon as I can.You may notice some changes with the categories. I have renamed some of them for a better understanding of what should be posted in them. The descriptions have also been updated to reflect this as well. I have removed the Bugs category as I do not think we need it any more. NodeBB is quite “stable” now and we only usually see issues when upgrading or installing plugins. Hopefully there will be no reason to report bugs to us.
I have also moved the categories around. I have moved the more social and BitBangers based categories to the bottom of the forum and moved the more relevant technology, coding, computer and gaming related categories closer to the top. I want people to see them first rather than having to scroll all the way to the bottom. I almost forgot that we had a Gaming category as it was always hidden way down at the bottom.
If there are some categories that you still don’t fully understand or if you think we should change the names and descriptions let me know!The final thing, and it maybe the most important, we now have a blog! Currently this is running a default theme but I am looking to purchase one for it soon and to make some modifications to it to make it fit with the forums. I already have 6 blogs posts waiting to be posted from some of the threads that have been posted in the forums. Hopefully this may encourage more threads to be posted. We don’t want @Almost to be the blog hogger now do we?

:D best blogger here.
The hamburger looks a little weird on mobile. It’s gray when I feel like it should be white.
Same with the composer.

Hamburger? The menu button thing?
I’ll change it asap.

Nice change, it’s a lot cleaner and flatter than before. Flat is the future right ? :P
Maybe it’s just me, but the arrows next to the “1 out of 3” kinda hurts my eyes. If they were white I think they would be fine.

How come I never saw this post.

@Antu I didn’t notice them. I will fix that!
