Jeez, I remember the first time I came here. It was a, more or less, vanilla Acmlm board. No fancy features, just a forum. Then came the NES Game Room, then Game Boy Room, and a few rooms later, you just said f*** it and called it the Retro Game Room. Then you created the fancy new room from the basic one, then the RTR. Once those projects were done, in holiday season '09, you decided to update the design of the board from a checkered pattern to the current one. By doing this, you made it faster, added the chat room, and many more updates.

And now, you streamline the interface and create amazing new subforum feature.

And of course, the un-sung hero, JigSaw. Thanks for your help.

Thank you David, for building this amazing community and giving me an online home. I really appreciate it.

LOL wow I remember making an NES Game Room, wow I forgot about that.

Yeah it's amazing at how fast vizzed has progressed over the past 1 1/2 years, there's really not to many sites out there that have progressed as fast as Vizzed has, if you saw vizzed 2 years ago you'd barely even think it's the same place lol. You came here just in time to see the full transformation of the site.

Here's the site from about 2 1/2 years ago:
http://web.archive.org/web/20080423114733rn_1/www.vizzed.com/vizzedboard/
The progress since than is just amazing. That's around the time I was looking into potential ways to drive traffic to vizzed, at first I thought a Flash Game Room would do the trick but I found far more potential in adding professionally made games and eventually started working on the NES Game Room as you mentioned.



I appreciate the compliments though, really made my day

Davideo7 :

Out of curiosity, I clicked the link you provided. Wow, Vizzed really HAS changed in 2 years. Although, I've only been here 2 months, so I wouldn't have known. Either way, as it is, the site is great, and you keep finding more ways to make it better.

Vizzed is gonna keep growing too, so I can't wait to see what the future holds.

Heh, "JigSawKiller".

I think I do remember the checker board background from when I first signed up here in '06. I'd completely forgotten about it since then.

wow... I barely had 1,000 posts.... that's crazy.

I can't believe how much has changed and how much it has improved since then.

Definite props to David and Jigsaw for all the work they've done. If it wasn't for the RGR this place would still look like that

Whoa, Vizzed looked cool back then.

I like the red lightning strikes on the Vizzed logo that takes you to the home page also. Very cool.

David - Sheesh, it looked even different back then I remember the tiny lil' green lines across the place that seperated the sections, like you would find, in the WebArchive link, in the cans. I had also forgotten about the links to the different sections. To this day, I miss the stylish silver that Admins had. You changed it because "they could be mistaken for members with a high post count", despite the lines above and underneath their names. Oui vei, I remember the argument in the Staff Forum about it. We won and you admitted it, and we still didn't get our color changed Glad I could make your day, I really am. I meant every word I said.

JigSaw - Not a problem, man. You may have gone a bit over the ropes sometimes on the board, but there's no denying that you're a huge part of the board as well.

Wow, it looked...different back then. And yes, it looked like a copy-pasta of Acmlm source-code. Now, it looks like an individual, original forum.

I remember it looking similar to that before April 2010.

I also remember trying to get to the board using the index page, and I couldn't find it. All I got was this.

Ha, David was using the old Ryo Hazuki picture until 3 months after I joined.
