Hi!!,
A few improvements to this website will make it the No.1 site dedicated to open-source software:
1. Change the Wordpress theme on the homepage of Linoob.
2. Provide direct FTP download links to all open-source software as well as Linux.
3. Replace the MyBB forums board with the AEF Forums board. It is better than Vbulletin and is Indian. Its the best. I have used many forum board on my localhost and this seems to be the best. This is the homepage link:
http://anelectron.com/
4. Make posts frequently to your website and review more open-source softwares related to Linux and Windows.
5. Make a valid Contact-us page that works.
6. Reply to your friends' email within 24 hrs.
I will comeup with more suggestions when I get time. Its enough for now. I know that these willn't be taken into consideration as the website owner is a bit lazy.
Bye!!
Abhishek

Can't actually. Hosting space matters.

Thank you, but I feel MyBB is more common and has better support.

You mis-interpreted my meaning. I just said that give the direct FTP links to LINUX and other open-source (FTP on their websites). Thats simple english. Ab mein Hindi mein itna dhoond dhoond ke kaise likhun.
cant there be a logo on the main page it is there in the forum.why not on the main page?????its important if it is there makes better impression!
-------------------------------------------
there should be a link to the main page of linoob.com from the forums how to go back?
Gagan, you stopped posting again?
^^Posts gonna come soon as we get a bit more holidays
I'm now testing Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic koala so you may expect few posts from it
Cell is onto virtualization & probably will start with a post soon
We try to post more frequently but its so much convergence here
as probably in outside world
Regarding the suggestion we always try to keep posts as simple & precise as possible with screenshots
Also we generally provide direct links so readers don't have to look 4 it
Thanks for reply GEEKG. I think you too know that your partner GAAGD is a bit lazy. Some of those sugesstions were just for him.
hmm, I'm not lazy. I'm just not able to manage the time properly. I hardly get any time to use the computer.
Now after you have a considerable traffic coming to Linoob, then why don't you publish a book(.pdf) with all posts till date on Linoob. This will be helpful for those LINOOBs who dont have an access to Internet. You should do this in the end of every month.
^^ Nice Thought But That Wont Be I Think Before An Year
or Half
What about changing the style of your blog
It's old. Get a new theme for it.
That too demands time and we are really short of it. I hardly get 1-2 hrs to use PC that too i waste playing CS 1.6
)
How about merging UrT section within the gamers section? No point of having it as a separate section even though it might be your favourite game.
^^ Done ......."Equality 2 All D Gamers"
Thanks for quick implementation of suggestion.
Another request. Is there any way you guys could do an auto resize of images? For example at TE forums, if you post really large ones, then they are auto resized to a lower size and on clicking the tab on top of each image, we get an option of seeing images in full size. Its a great way to keep forum width in check.
Why don't you change the theme in MYBB and Wordpress? They have grown old. Try some new ones!
Also, make a favicon for your website.
^^ Theme has been prepared for the Blog. We'll launch on our Anniversary.
