Hello Fellow Members
Hi! My names Joel =D, and like some folks I loved OM and was apart of that community. OM has helped me out growing up in the city of New York. I have moved to Florida recently though and Its ok I guess. So basically want to say hi and all. Hopefully I'll meet new people and reunite with old friends.


Btw: The layout of this site looks just like OM a while back, amazing.

Florida, that must be really different. o.O Does the layout look like OM used to? How so? I don't remember haha..

Lol yes it does. To the whos online to the right, recent forum links and all above, and  personal options links above that.  Pretty close =].

Either way, well done Alphy.

We were thinking of rearranging the menu layout...but we're not sure what would be the nicest way yet...

I think its great the way it is, of course if it can be better why not. I'm sure you'll figure out what would be the nicest way.

Hey Joel! Glad you like it here. I don't remember OM looking like this, but I joined OM quite a little ways after the.alphy.. and wasn't really active.. ^^"

(See..! Everyone thinks you made it all by yourself.. XP) *mumbles to self*

Hi, Hi *waves*  

You do have a point, haha...  But, it's too similar.  There is alot of differences.  OM near the end did have, to the right as well, the people whom were online and for how long, the forum menu, mail, etc.  As far as the feedback and userlist goes, well that wasn't as easily accessable as it is here.  Oh and don't forget the biggest difference.  The post count...  I kinda like not having it here given the enormous amount of posts and threads that generated by people battling out for top poster!!!

Though, I like it...  It has the OM feel that everyone misses but then extra feel that which is the.alphy's AND the.watcher's openmynds!!!  ^_^  (sorry watcher, I had to emphasize the 'and' just for you!!!  ~_^)

Haha.. I don't mind alphy being the face of openmynds. I just tease.. =P

There is a search for users, in the search box. There's a user tab to show user results, but it's poorly placed.

I'm hoping to beef up the userlist as we expand so it can filter users according to search criteria as well as paginate them (show the list over multiple pages so the pages aren't so long!).

Also need to paginate the forum posts.. =\
