If you know your way around HTML, CSS, or other web related technologies apply now. We need all the help we can get.

We can't afford to pay, but it'll look good on your resume, and/or just be good fun. Well, fun if you love looking at a code editor and moving pixels on a screen. Your work, potentially, will be seen by a lot of people.

Ah, pixel moving heaven.

What needs doing?

I usually prefer back-end stuff: SQL, PHP, Apache conf, Bash, Perl.

But HTML, CSS, JS, all good.

Nothing too specific at this stage, but we would like to do the following.

    Add a proper search box.

    More colour options for the theme.

    Make this place our own.

    Give people a chance to practice and enhance their skills.

Bizarre the poor quality searching ability. Where's the site-wide search, etc.?

I suppose one can sign up with Google and have a "Search This Site" field placed somewhere. Let them do the heavy lifting as it were.

Site definitely needs more AJAX - I dislike the page reloading when setting options in Admin Control, previewing comments, searching users when reassigning ownership, etc.

Some of that might be too much of an architectural refit, as the site would still have to work without JS. Not sure if it's worth it; maybe. If it can be patched with some features, they can be submitted to phpBB for incorporation into core.

I'm a developer (not a designer) and I can work on a lot of things should you need me to. I've had a job doing web-based programming in C# but I'm also have written a few websites (most of which I destroyed out of shame) in PHP. I can work on whatever you need, though it seems like this place is pretty well built so far.

I have 15 years in web dev using every language you can think of (front and backend).

Time permitting, I can help with whatever you like.

Ajax, jQuery, CSS2/3 and responsive design should be enough buzzwords to make you happy.

I'm not a designer, however, if a designer can hand me a PSD flat I can create it.

Hi Bromide,

I'm a designer, I know HTML and CSS pretty well, and have some ok PHP, JS skills. I'm looking to fix a problem with our rep system, and I think it's Ajax related. I don't know Ajax.

Did you get my pm?

I'm trying to setup a developer irc channel now and when I do I'll post the link here.

Hey phree, you probably know this already, I'll just put it out there; I'm not programmer, but if you need a designed interface/PSD I'm up to doing it.
