Guys I just got done talking with Ken'ichi and we both came to the conclusion that AAAB. Has become very inactive. We are going to need people to start posting more. We want this board to stay alive. Ken'ichi did tell me he is planning on maybe redoing this forum with a whole fresh look. If any of you have friends that you could invite to this forum that is an active poster. We would really appreciate it. Anyway, thank you for your cooperation.

If you guys need any help with anything (lay-out design/hosting/anything), I'll be happy to help. I try to post as much as possible, but I don't overdo it as I don't want to spam the recent post page with 10 posts from me xD

I'm happy to hear you all willing to pitch in bring the boards to life with activity. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions and donations (Avatars, background, banners, etc) everyone is willing to give to improve the boards.
And yes, I've been meaning to look into a redesign of the boards. I can imagine most of you getting tired of that starry background and the same ol' banner. It could use a more Brother Bear'ish redesign.

What do you people think of character skins? You know like for you Kenai fans. You could have a Kenai Skin. For Koda fans could get a Koda skin. Rutt and Tuke could have a skins same with Tug, Nita or any other Brother Bear character.

I'll try to post whenever I have something to say. It'd be nice to have some new conversations too, and for example those films in the movie corner seem like a good idea. Then, I know someone on Youtube who seems to like BB. I haven't talked to her much, simply given comments to couple of her videos and got a response from her.. but anyway.. I don't know.. maybe I could tell her about us..? What do you people think of character skins? You know like for you Kenai fans. You could have a Kenai Skin. For Koda fans could get a Koda skin. Rutt and Tuke could have a skins same with Tug, Nita or any other Brother Bear character. Um.. I'm not familiar with this. Could you tell me what "skin" means here? As for the design, I haven't grown tired. xD But then again, haven't been here so long. A new look sure would be interesting. (the Christmas design was lovely, by the way. ^^)

At the moment this board indeed doesn't really feel like a brother bear-related board. The only thing in the lay-out that reminds of Brother Bear is the banner. Maybe give the board a warmer tinted template and replace the board buttons with pawprints, etc. I'll try to come up with a banner. Also, Arcadius, I think the seperate skins is a great idea! Anya: it means you will be able to switch between lay-outs. A Rutt & Tuke lay-out, a Kenai lay-out and a Koda lay-out, etc.

I love the idea of alternate skins, as long as the current skin is still available. It could be called "Classic AAAB" or something. ;D
The board used to have paw prints and things in place of the default Proboards icons. I guess they were lost in a server crash? I know that at least some of the icons were sprites from the Brother Bear GBA game. I think I might have them saved somewhere. I would also be willing to try my hand at designing some new graphics.

The board used to have paw prints and things in place of the default Proboards icons. I guess they were lost in a server crash? Unfortunately that was the case. It was lost with the server crash sometime ago. I was too stupid to back them up into my computer so they're gone. We used to have a bear totem, Nita's necklace, Kenai and Koda icons. I know that at least some of the icons were sprites from the Brother Bear GBA game. I think I might have them saved somewhere. I would also be willing to try my hand at designing some new graphics. If you can find the old icons, that would be great to see them again! And yes, if you're willing and free to design graphics for the boards that'd be greatly appreciated. Like I said, everyone is free to make your own designs and donate it to the boards. This is everyone's home after all, so we can all chip in to improve it and keep it friendly and nice ;D

I found them! ;D Unfortunately I don't have Nita's necklace, or anything else that might have been added at the same time, but most of the icons are there. I've put them in a zip archive. www.mediafire.com/file/ymm3g5twm32/AAABicons.zipThere are four files in there that I don't recognize; I don't know what they are, but they were included with the forum icons so I thought I'd keep them together just to be safe. XD They're tline.gif, tline2.gif, tline3.gif and yellowbut.gif.

Hmmm... I'll see if I can find a ROM online for that GBA game. If I do, I'll make some screenshots for some additional graphics. :3

How wow, Epesi. That's a huge win for you. I remember most of those icons and some of them I don't remember they existed. You are wonderful for storing and providing those gems again. Those will surely pick up the boards and give it that Brother Bear look it needed. Thank you so much.
Good screen caps Czarine, I'm sure some of us will find them useful. The Brother Bear PC game can be a fun little game, and they have hidden totems you can find that each one will give you information about what they represent.
