I tuned it and modded it as I went. My BBS would never have been online if I had customized it first. Took me about 3 years to create my menus. I did add a new things like Nightfox's message reader/area chooser stuff but that was it really. One day, I just sat down, looked at my board and thought, "something has to change". so I created a bunch of new menus on a loose theme. I think it happened when I started playing with TheDraw and found some fonts I liked that I could use in the menus. -- End Of The Line BBS - Plano, TX telnet endofthelinebbs.com 23 .
