Just a note to let y'all know I've upgraded the board software. You might notice new features, you might notice some missing features until I can get them to work (the iTrader function, for example). When I get some time I'll work on restoring what's missing. That is all...
Yessir!
so far so cool
Yea I noticed....I saw 1 Notification and thought What thew hell......Good job though I like it.
Ughhhh no no NO. Jeez. I mean no offense to the guy that made the request he knows who he is...but "friend request" come onnnn man now we got facebook and myspace here too? :hick: Hell I thought we were all friends! Oh well. Not complaining I honestly dont care, I'm not going to stop coming here because of that, don't think any less of this place because of that but just ranting.
And it's new and different so just by virtue of that I hate it.:rollin:
This board don't really show it, but when you are on a site that has a couple hundred thousand members, the friend's list make more sense.
For a moment I saw gallery, and then it disappeared.
i aint got a friggin clue of whats going on........thought i had a pm and its friend requests.
oh well, all looks to be well, I see new functions i like
My car gets 40 rods to the hog's head, and that's the way I like it!
I was wondering what the hell was going on. I logged on and was like "WTF somethings wierd." lol
Looks about the same to me, EXCEPT that in the reply window, the smilies extend off the side of the screen, where they used to be in a tidy little box "within bounds". I guess the new software isn't 100% 98SE or Firefox friendly anymore?
.
Seeing as I'm using Firefox and the smilies are all in their cage, I doubt that's the issue unless your Firefox version is an older one perhaps...
actually, my smilies have always done that since I joined. I though it did that for everyone.
They do that for me too...always have with Safari (Mac). Firefox 2 (PC) doesn't.
They don't do that for me, using FF 3.08 and Vista...
Same as above & well behaved smileys
Windows FTW!!!!
All joking aside, The tags thing is the only thing I have noticed, and may have been there before hand.
Using FF 2.0.0.20 (the last version that works with 98SE). And your smilie window is also "stretched" from what I remember it looking like "before". You're also using a higher resolution on a wide monitor, right? I'm still at 800x600 on a 17", as anything smaller is too hard on my feeble old eyes. If I switch to 1024x768, the smilie box is the same "size" relative to the text entry window, but the purple-background reply box expands to "enclose" it, leading me to think the smilie box's size is hard-coded into the software, rather than "floating". I don't do CSS or Javascript, so I wouldn't know where to look for the "error".
Suggestion.
Dont know what it would take to do this but Search option at the bottom of the page in each sub section (Lounge, User Rides, etc). Have it on a few Mustang boards. Just throwing that out there. I know that we cant have everything.
So for that short time I had the friend's list w/avatars, the photo gallery, and the visitor's option are all gone? Not that I'm complaining, just wondering if it's just me or did everyone not have those privileges?
Not trying to be a prick, but this entire thread pretty much fits into the site suggestion area. No one seems to use it anymore.
when i get a pm, now i have to do double the work to get to the pm. Before, i simply clicked on pm's. now i have to click on pm's , then click on view pm's again to get to the pm.
Its obvious if I see i have a pm that I want to go to the pm. Why force in another step to go there.
Ahh,, the other logic ,,,
Wel that's because when the board upgraded there were other "notifications" there too which Carm has disabled. WHoever wrote the script over at V-bulletin didn't program it smart enough that if there was only one type of notification not to have that dropdown menu come up, but oh well maybe with enough complains, they'll change that in the next installment.
