Biggest problem with fansites

[Kardan]

wait is it not pronounced habbo-x i'm confused

also Habbodown was a rly good fansite back in the day, Yatwice and Scorbutic were awesome

No, it's Hab-Ox / Hab-Box (Both sound identical to me), not Habbo / X.

wow rly

been pronouncing it wrong for years then

[lawrawrrr]

everyone says it differently haha but yeah hab ox is how most of us do!!

Disagree with OP here though, fansites don't have a problem because their logos don't match their name, but that they're new, often with poor organisation/design because of the lack of (specialist) people, and often a lack of staff too. It's nice to have logos that sort of reflect the name but won't magically make your site better....

Back in the day, an Aussie fansite called Habbo Paradise. It was probably more popular than any other fansite around back in 06 & early 07. The design/layout, skin, graphics, even threads with banners & emoticons & such, it was all based on something to do with "paradise/tropical". HabboHut back in the day was pretty good on this also, everything they had made it felt like a "hut". Having a fansite with a name like ShineHabbo, Habbopod, Flyhabbo & not having a single thing based on the name of the site practically makes the domain name pointless. Especially within the past couple of years as every fansite that is made now days are all the exact same. Same skins, same forums, same staff groups with the same colours.. pretty much everything.

We both have then, But why DF do they have Habbox Gfx's with habbox written as "Habbo-x" With the - too and a few with just a space.

haha I laughed at this thread. 1. It's definitely pronounced hab-ox, habb-ox, ha-box (all sound the same) 2. Just because the fansite is named like global or power, doesn't really mean they have to have something like that in the graphics, we don't have boxes scattered all over the place or oxens!

We do now @e5

O/T - when I say it, I pronounce it Hab-ox, but when I split it up into syllables (like, saying 1 syllable at a time) i say Hab box. But that's just me. So looks like we need a box here too.
