Ok guys, here's the new forum software and theme I made. I am trying to match the color tone of the main www page, but without being as dark as other forums (pirates, ih8mud, etc)

I have yet to check the smilies and other settings, so please be patient while I get everything back in order

Also, You guys might want to clear out your browser's cache as many of the little icons have changed

[BigMike]

Remember the "Max Questions (50,000) limit reached" error? Well I had a little work-around that I made that tried its best to prevent that error from coming up, but with this newer version, I am hoping that it is coded better and will have a lighter load on the server.

Therefore, I removed the work-around, and only time will tell if it gets overloaded or not.

Images are appearing as thumbnails or just links, don't know if this was done on purpose or not.

[Installer_Joe]

Wow this is really nice! It looks great! You are a great installer Mike!

Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe you clear your cookies
Not like that in your browsers Internet Options box.

I'm getting my warnings again. I stopped getting those warning when we became mods. It's a pain but I missed it.
The board really does have a great look, Mike.

[Rocksurfer]

It does it to new images too, I posted a couple on my secret icon thread and they came as thumbs


now you know my secret

[wa4x4]

Gonna have to re-learn the system a little bit, but it looks very good, very modern. Good work Mike!!

[BigMike]

What are you guys talking about? What images are not load? What warnings are you getting?

Everything looks and loads great for me logged in or as a guest. All of the images load up just fine.

[BigMike]

One thing I think I messed up with was some new features with the Attachments, and I think I may have deleted a few attachments

[79coyotefrg]

how long has it been back

as long as the GBG girls are ok 

[BigMike]

What is wrong with that warning? That just means that the thread has changed since you last saw it. I believe you can disable it in your profile, I will have to look.......

I am trying to install the Max Question overload workaround on this newer forum software... brb

You better check it

[79coyotefrg]

actually if it helps the forum run better  go ahead  and delete the main body of the pics,  but leave the sick parts

[Rocksurfer]

There isn't a real problem with images, but you must open the attachment to see the fullsize picture. They all show a thumbnail now instead of the fullsize image, and in some cases they only show as a link now.

[BigMike]

Ok, let me look into that. I hate that. That's what Pirates does to half of their attachments. This new version has so many new features I am still playing with them..

What do you guys think about how the attachments are downsized now? I think it looks much much cleaner, but I am going to set them to be a bit larger
