I'm using WinRAR too (Registered). A per album download is the most easy to accomplish. I'm still looking for a solution to listen to a .mp3 instead of downloading it first. A kind of streaming for example. I'll look into this as well as the download per album option.

More suggestions?

I use WinRAR 3.6x only for unpacking archives. Is a registered version from a pc magazine (it was free for everyone), that applies only on 3.6x, but 7-Zip is OpenSource, have better compression and can handle UTF-8 Names (example for japanese or chinese characters).

I tried downloading 7zip from that particular link, but when I did McAfee Site Advisor told me it contained a dangerous program, so I didn't download. Download 7zip from here http://download.cnet.com/7-Zip/3000-2250_4-10045185.html?tag=mncol which according to McAfee site advisor and Norton Anti-Virus is safe. Isn't it time windows contained an unzipping program as standard by now?

if we have the Music box sitting there why not making a radio player in the sidebar? I would be glad if it didn't play automatically since its annoying when I open multiple tabs

and if you want to stream the mp3's I'm sure you encountered into this

I dunno if it's good or bad if multiple songs were to play at the same time. Might sound totally absurd. :D

If that "radio" idea goes forward, whether it plays or not and what music does it play should be arranged by each member.

@janus: Sounds/looks interesting BUT unfortunate it's an outdated version which won't install on the board. I'll look around to see what the possibilities are. Thanks for thinking along!

 :??? Hold on while I look into this
* Lum-chan slaps himself!

Dumbass I am... Oke got it fixed. The link was pointing to my account. I edited the link so it should work only for you  ;)

To all others: go to your Profile -> Look and Layout Preferences -> Current Theme: Dark Green (change). Just click on 'change' and choose the blue theme.

and the time zone thing that you showed had the same error.
as far as any fixture or new feature I can't come up anything right now
but it had me thinking, this site activity has been on and off at times with mostly the same people
and up until now I've liked the rhythm this site and how things have been up until now.
but wouldn't it be better to add that speck of salt to attract more visitors, because we know the content is there but for me it doesn't seem that it appeals visitors much to make them register and take part in the forums
but this is some random thought I had....

Timezone link was my fault. It took you to my profile. You can edit your timezone from your profile.

Attracting people to register and take part in discussions has always been a problem since the start of the forums back in 2004 and maybe in the older versions as well.

Some boards need to be re-disabled to visitors as before and to download you need to be registered as well. This does not apply to the picture-galleries from the left-menu.

I'll see what I can do after I have finished the updates to the site. There's so much to do in so little time. I hope to have it completed somewhere around upcoming Wednesday.

the color scheme is great but having UY themed skin would be better. but it would be much work designing buttons backgrounds and such and maybe the need of flash. it could look fancy, but it could compatibility issues with other browsers or a longer loading times. something easy would be to at least add an icon relating to the section, like the gallery could have a picture icon right beside the name.
