mfbukowski Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 I mysteriously got my old avatar back.
ebeddoulos Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 There used to be both an avatar and a photo. It appears as though the avatar is MIA and the photo is filling that slot. That is a minor inconvenience with a 30-second fix. The rest of it is very nice. I like the what-you-see-is-what-you-get editing best of all.Thanks.
DarkScythe Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 what is this? Mommy I don't like change Please change it back.................................................Jk the changes are alright.
Facsimile 3 Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 Hey, what happened to the date I joined being displayed by my avatar? I enjoyed the seniority.
zerinus Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 The board changed but your favorite moderator is still here.But what about my beautiful animated avatar?
Mktavish Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 I really like your avatar deborah ... it is akin to vango err sumthinlol I cant spell err name artists
zerinus Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 It is different, but not necessarily better. My suggestion would be to drop the whole thing, and opt for vBulletin or something else.
Deborah Posted September 16, 2011 Author Posted September 16, 2011 I re-added my avatar to make it clearer. It was kind of stretchy.Mktavish, I have no idea who that is. But it's how I wished I looked. You know the avatars in the Matrix as opposed to reality.
Nofear Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 I find the new format a bit more tolerable if I zoom in once or twice. I think the default sizes are a bit too large. Every comment is also a minimum height which I think is a bit more than need.
emeliza Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 edit: Where is my little artist bird avatar??!! Grrrrr....I lost my avatar gold fish as well. When I posted this morning, my profile picture was showing....which I do not want on my posts so I deleted it from my profile. It looks like I need to find and upload my goldfish when I have time. That is the only thing that bugs me. Otherwise the new site looks nice.
wenglund Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 Unless you are using a screen resolution less than 800x600 the forum width should scale to size. I am sight impaired and have needed to use the lower resolution in order to see better. As a work-around for this web site, I am able to increase the resolution on my computer and use the browser to zoom in on the text, But, the increased resolution creates visibility issues for me in other ways. Is there a way that the update can be tweaked to accommodate lower resolutions?Thanks, -Wade Englund-

mercyngrace Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 What?!? No more "Forbidden" error page? Whatever will I do? Love it! Thanks Nemesis!
Garden Girl Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 What?!? No more "Forbidden" error page? Whatever will I do? Love it! Thanks Nemesis!MnG... how did you keep your avatar? Mine disappeared...GG
Deborah Posted September 16, 2011 Author Posted September 16, 2011 MnG... how did you keep your avatar? Mine disappeared...GGYou may have to re-add it. Mine didn't disappear but it was distorted.
LeSellers Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 (edited) My avatar is distorted, as many of you have seen with your own. I suppose I can reload it at some point.But there are four things I wonder about.First, it appears as if the Secondary headline is now gone. We now have "tags" to add to any topics we start.Second, There doesn't seem to be a place for an avatar anymore. The only thing I could find was a slot for a photo, which has been filled, in my case, with my avatar. Are there two images or just one now?Third, what's the big X all about. (It's located at the bottom right of each message, but appears to go aways until your cursor approaches it.)Fourth, there used to be a "Print Entire Topic" feature. If it's still there, I'd like to use it—has anyone seen it, or do we know if it's gone for good?Lehi Edited September 16, 2011 by LeSellers
Zakuska Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 (edited) Does anyone know how to set the Avatar on their profile? Mine seems to be broken.Is it the Picture option?Oops... didn't see the last posts. Edited September 16, 2011 by Zakuska
seriously honestly Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 Not a huge fan of the new set up. Maybe that will change and I'll learn to like it, but for right now...no.

I believe that is just to give the option to hide all signatures or that persons.. If that's the X you are referencing..
mercyngrace Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 MnG... how did you keep your avatar? Mine disappeared...GGI have no idea!?
Nemesis Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 As stated in papa's thread I had to make a decision and some avatars were orphaned. It had to make a decision on whether to keep avatars or photos and I kept avatars. You can reload them through user cp.Nemesis
Calm Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 (edited) How can you tell if a jpg is copyrighted or not? Edited September 16, 2011 by calmoriah
Mola Ram Suda Ram Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 (edited) So a... yeah there is quite ab it that changed. Gonna take a bit to get used to it.Might as well post in the "hot" thread. Edited September 16, 2011 by Mola Ram Suda Ram
Nemesis Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 Ok we implemented some new security features that may block users from the board. If you know this is happening to legitimate posters please let me know.Nemesis
