Hello!

Welcome to the new Showbiz Spy forum -- you'll need to re-register if you wish to post.

The forum won't look like this forever - it will be integrated with the main website shortly.

Smilies, etc. Will also be added shortly.

I gather this is a relaunch of a previous incarnation of this forum.

As I am totally new here, is this place normally just the three subforums?

What do you mean it won't look like this forever?

:)

It normally has more forums/subforums. Im sure it will have more in showbiz once the forum is intregated into the main website, it will also look different with different colour theme's etc..

We used to have about 12-or-so forums, but they weren't all getting used.

It'll remain three forums for a little while, so we can get the forum going again -- if there's any forums you'd like adding, feel free to discuss.

We recently had our main website re-designed, so the forum will be integrated with the site (so it's easier to navigate) shortly.

Great :)

Just wondering about the history of Showbiz Spy - how long have you've been in existence and is it affiliateed with any other site(s)?

It has been going for around two-and-a-half years. We're independent, and not affiliated with any other website.

I hope we don't have the awful "celebrity pictures" section again - it was just an excuse for certain men to post pictures of half naked females. :(

You used to be quite pally with Morningstarr forum though, what with Gemma being admin here.

I wouldn't say we were affiliated in any way, though.

Oh, and the celebrity pictures thing was a really bad idea - it won't be coming back.

That's a good idea :) There's no point having lots of subforums with little or no activity. Or people just end up ignoring them anyway.

I just had a look around your main website... in your About/Adverstising bit:

"We attract a die-hard audience of 18-35 year-old females eager to catch-up on the latest news about their favorite celebrities."

This is embarrassing :o

I may be 18-35 but I most definitely am not female. :mad: :p

Aww, I wasn't here then. :(

It's a pity we don't have the quiz here any more - I used to like that. I used to do it on Morningstarr's forum too after it moved there, but he doesn't like me posting there any more. :D
