wa, I've not crossed the updated forum over yet. I use FireFox exclusively and I can see the text "Turtle Points ###" and the options "[give] [take]" which is listed right above the Member's gender icon.

My give and take is missing too, I have both netscape and IE.

Well when he wrote that, I was not seeing them, but now I am. Weird. But I don't really understand all the setup of the web.

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 · « **Reply #70 on:** Mar 21, 2006, 06:10:41 PM »

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.

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 · « **Reply #79 on:** Mar 21, 2006, 06:46:07 PM »

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 · « **Reply #80 on:** Mar 21, 2006, 06:52:36 PM »

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

BigMike · « **Reply #81 on:** Mar 21, 2006, 08:17:40 PM »

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 · « **Reply #82 on:** Mar 21, 2006, 08:18:11 PM »

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 · « **Reply #83 on:** Mar 21, 2006, 08:19:35 PM »

how long has it been back

as long as the GBG girls are ok

BigMike · « **Reply #85 on:** Mar 21, 2006, 08:21:11 PM »

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 · « **Reply #87 on:** Mar 21, 2006, 08:22:04 PM »

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

Rocksurfer · « **Reply #88 on:** Mar 21, 2006, 08:24:39 PM »

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 · « **Reply #89 on:** Mar 21, 2006, 08:44:37 PM »

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
