    It looked totally different, i like the looks of it now. It's nothing special but the design is simple and its cool.

    I'm new to this forum, but of all of the forums that I'm a member of, I love the look of WF much, much better than the others. It just feels so professional, yet comfortable. I'm not sure exactly what else, but there is some psychology going on the layout and color scheme. If only I could get my website to have that effect.

    I think the simplicity of it, and the three-color (red, black and blue) scheme both work well. It's definitely based on red being the primary color of the theme, but it's not an in-your-face sort of ubiquitous red that would be ugly. Also, it's simple enough that it loads pretty fast on older computers. A winning combo. Buttons and menus are easy to find, and there's lots of "white space" (actually, mostly light gray space) so that it's not too busy and confusing.

      The above link is the version previous to this one - and that one went on for a long time.

        And there were at least two versions before that one. Maybe only one but I think I remember two. Paul can correct me if he sees this.

          Three platforms, 4 interfaces. Sort of.

          The original Uni-Sol.com version had no graphics to speak of. Josh made some modifications that allowed a logo, which was the second "interface." Same basic platform, though. Then came the Snitz system, and the current platform.

        Yea, that was the version running when I joined. I like the new one better.

        And as others have said, the clean look of the forum with its' simple design is a big plus.

        It also wouldn't surprise me if the majority of the folks back then came to the forum because they were already marketing using the internet as a vehicle and this was just a natural place to hang out, share, and learn. I know that's how I found it although I can't remember who turned me on to it.

        It seems like a lot of the newer members discoverd this place during the current MMO fad that's been sweeping the net.

    This is the earliest capture of the main forum

    The Warrior Forum

    I don't think that picture belonged to Allen. He posted his picture on one of Big Mike's social network accounts (I can't remember which one).

    This is what the original looked like: Internet Marketing Warriors Forum

    PS: If the same page comes up that I just saw, you'll recognize a few of those names...

        Kim,

        Those are just a few, but they remind us how far we've come. And how easy it is to misspell my name.
        I also found the thread where I was looking for a programmer to do my first product
        Ah, the things we see, if we only look back.

        What's even more interesting is how much hasn't changed at all.
