Hey,

I am Fez, I worked on the background hack with

WhiteRabbit. We(Darkzune.com) created the original zThemes hack way before Zuneboards did. Although, props to them for making the customizable version. They can say that they had thought it up all along, but hey, its doing it that matters the most.

Good Job

Berdon (Nurta didn't and can't do jack squat his name is just there because he is an Admin)

Peace Fellas

The Background hack does work and very well might I add. I made a custom background for it that I like a lot, if you would like it here it is.

Being able to change the background should be a simple preference that we should be able to change without a 'hack.'

@ Ricardo Dawkins (from ZuneScene?)

What do you mean by "you ppl"?

Aren't we all part of the social?

Actually, ZuneBoards figured it out before DarkZune, so I wouldn't say they "derived" from DarkZune. However, we can say that DarkZune itself did derive from ZuneBoards.

You are aware that DarkZune's Hacker "White Rabbit" released the original hack which was later derived by ZuneBoards..

Just wondering if you had taken this into account.

Great Blog.

So Cesar...when are you going to change the background on your website? You had that same background for a while now.

Looks pretty cool but I refuse to be put into a position where I am forced to register for a forum just to view one post.

Maybe someone else will post up the instructions somewhere else... oh well

nice... I did this when zuneboards first posted it, what I was saying "nice" to was Cesar's reaction. I mean, how often do you hear someone from a company commending people for hacking their software to make it more useable? (I never have, with the exception of open source stuff, but thats not really from a company)

Seems to me like an obvious oversight <sigh>
