I am looking for a basic minimalism design for a private poker discussion website.
I would like an initial home page that simply has a sleek looking banner and login details directly underneath. I will need a page only known to me that I can add new users using a username and password and assign them an avatar for the forums. It is not necessary for a bunch of information.
The admin page should simply have:
Login: _____________
Password:____________
Once logged in, I should be able to add new users by entering
New User: ______________
Their Password: _______________
Save
I should also be able to see a list of the current users and be able to delete certain users from the group.
New users should then be added to the site and be allowed to login. When they login, the site should record their IP address and in the admin panel it should display all the countries that user has logged in from. The first time a user ever logs in, it should allow them to change their password. These passwords will be displayed in the admin panel as well.
After logging in (and nobody who doesn't have login details should be able to get past the home page, or navigate to any other part of the site)
There should be two graphics under the main banner of the page:
One that says "Hand History Analysis" and the next that says "Regsploits", I'd like these to both be big rounded rectangular images with a picture of some kind of character or something interesting as well as the text.
When the player clicks on either image, they should be taken to a private forum. I want the forum to be very simple, basically just have the banner at the top and then in the top right, "New Thread".
Then below, I just want the thread titles listed, when a player clicks on a thread, they get taken to that thread and can make posts and view the thread information. I don't want it to look very complicated... Basically like this:
BANNER
_________________ logged in as XXXXXXX Create New Thread
Thread title # 1
Thread title # 2
Thread title # 3
There will only be two forums required, one for "hand history analysis" and one for "regsploits".
Each of them will look the same. I'd like a sleek background and a really nice looking website. I don't want it to look like standard forums. It must look very Sleek, Modern and not be cluttered up with unnecessary information.
Please read this and understand completely. The design is very important to me to look very sleek, very modern and new, however not to be cluttered at all. The website should have a very simple design, but be very attractive to the eye.
The forum should also be compatible with phpBB code, so that hands can be posted from a hand converter website, in this format:
