The upgrade of the forum and portal is complete, but that\'s just the beginning.
You\'ll probably notice there\'s a LOT missing right now. I\'m going to be addressing these things on Friday. For now, it\'s pretty barebones around here.
The gallery is closed for the time being.
If you run into anything that\'s just plain wrong (and I\'m sure you will), post about it in this thread.
vBlue will be the only style available for a bit, as bringing the rest over will require a lot of work.
-
hey you know what dave ?? take your time buddy. move at a nice pace that you feel comfortable with. Dont\' go overboard. Eat well, and stay strong. I believe in you dave, i believe in you
-
Thanks Dave for everything you do. Time is your side.
I\'ll be more than happy to donate another $20 for this upgraded site, time, effort and energy aren\'t cheap.
Thanks again.

- check out the new editors. click on the A/A in the top-right, and you can see what your post will actually look like as you edit it.
- also, try editing one of your posts. it can now be done right within the post itself!
- event attendance is back.
- you can switch between vertical and horizontal postbits from the thread itself (click Display Modes to see what i\'m talking about).
more to come..

just for the time being.. but i\'ll warn you that the vBlack and Legacy styles coming back is definitely not at the top of the list of thigs to do (translation: probably won\'t be done this weekend with everything else)..
-
That\'s fine like everyone else said take your time just curious

I can\'t see avatars on the threads, this was a problem I had before the update as well. Is there some option I didn\'t choose or something?

testing doublepost prevention...
-
huh... they work now. you are magic, dave.

explain further? i\'m not getting it.
-
explain further? i\'m not getting it.
in the editor, if you type something normally and highlight it, and click the B, you will see \'bold\' tags around the text.
if you click on the icon i mentioned above and do the same, your text will actually be bold, rather than show the tags.
-
hmmm... not workin for me. oh well, i dont particularly mind waiting till i get to the thread to see my post formatting.

i\'ve added a members map to replace the old one.. this one is MUCH better, and powered by Google Maps. click the link on the side menu and add yourself! i\'ll be making an announcement later on to try to get as many members on the map as possible..
-
great job thus far Dave
:golf clap:

I added my coordinates to the Google map, though a pin locator hasn\'t appeared. How do I get my marking?
-
i can see you al..
-
That google map is very nice. Excellent feature. Is that an optional feature or one that was part of the upgrade already on the newer versions?
-
Thanks Dave!!
-
-rounded and nested quotes are back.
-paypal donation system and donor notations on postbit are back.
-forum front page now also displays # of \'active members\' (defined as members who have visited in the last 90 days).
uh.. i think that\'s it for now.. if i have to look at a computer screen any more today, i may shoot myself.
-
are quotes showing up like this for anyone else?

and if so, what browser are you using? thanks.
-
the chat is back online, though there are a couple cosmetic issues that i need to iron out on that page..
also, by popular request, i was able to remove the pesky censor from the chat, so now you can say anything you want in there.
-
Dave, where is the link(ad) to amazon.com. I\'m placing my xmas order soon, and even if only $2.00 comes your way, two bucks is two bucks.
-
Nicely done, Dave!

If you are talking about the quotes being highlighted in grey then yes. I am using Safari 2.0.2 with OSX 10.4.3

I dunno if anyone else is experience this, but the posts aren\'t wrapping very well and I\'m getting a lot of really really long lines of post that involve horrible horizontal scrolling.

i haven\'t seen that at all. do you have an example? screenshot? for the hell of it, i\'ll also recommend that you try clearing your browser\'s cache. seems to help with a lot of the changes that i\'ve done..

out of curiousity, are there large images posted in these threads? that could be the cause of it, as i haven\'t found a good image resizer to implement yet..
-
No images at all. Some threads are wrapping well, like this one. But others such as the "don\'t mean to be a pain in the ass" thread are running really long horizontally. I don\'t know how to take a screenshot or clear my browser\'s cache.

not a bug, but just wanted to say I love the snow effect. nice santa hat taboot. :thumbsup:

-
nice work, dave... did the feature that allows you to change forum colors go away? these snow flakes would look really cool on the black background...
-
Very Christmas-like in here today.
Just wondering if anyone else has had trouble switching there avatars? Every time I try to upload an avatar is says, "You can not upload animated images"
What does this mean?
-
What\'s flashchat?

Oh yeah Thanx Dave for getting rid of that annoying request for a read reciept when you send a PM.
I never used it and it bugged the heck outta me. If you bring it back pls make an option to disable it.

ha! see, it\'s there! it\'s now a check box underneath..
-
The site is coming along very nicely. Thanks again for the update.
Does the update make things more convenientfor you to administer this place?
also, how long does the site have to wait before it can win fansite on jambands again?
-
Ah ha! Yep I see it now thanx Dave!
-
update:
i haven\'t yet had a chance to work on the vBlack style, but i\'m happy to let you know that the Legacy (pbfans) Style is almost ready to be back.. i just have a couple more things to tweak, but it should be ready in the next day or 2. imo, it looks MUCH better than it did in the previous version, as i\'ve added new matching icons, and some other goodies...
i\'ll post back when it\'s ready to go..
-
pbfans style is ready to be used. you can change your style either in your usercp, or at the bottom left of each page.
feedback welcome.
-
sick....was getting tired of vblue and the new icons are a nice touch.
but whats up with the real radio scheme!?!
-
PBFans style is very nice. Great work, davepeck!!!
What will he think of next?
-
Marvellous - never liked the VB blue - pbfans it is!!
BTW has anyone else found that when they go "get new" the cookie seems to have reset? I got 96 new threads going back 10 days!!
-
yes, I had the same thing happen to me at work. The threads not viewed were well over 1000.

new feature. just found it today. it\'s actually better, once you get over the initial \'shitloads of unread stuff\'... check it:
previously, \'unread\' posts were stored in cookies. so if you logged in on one computer, read a bunch of posts, then immediately logged in on another computer, they\'d still be unread. likewise if you logged in, but didn\'t read your unread posts, after an hour they would automacially be \'read\' because of inactivity.
unread posts are now stored on the database side, so it knows exactly how many posts are new to your username. so now you can come to .info, and not be forced to read all the new posts, and they\'ll still be \'new\' the next time you visit. hope that makes sense...
oh, and vBlack will be back shortly..
-
I was wondering why it said there were no new posts this morning, and the next time I logged in I had 900 unread posts...
-
ahhhh it all makes sense now..........
-
I don\'t get it... :?:
-
I don\'t get it... :?:
Figures. :0
-
No suc problem today though.
Cool idea, the "not updated but still not viewed" being split up - means you can keep track on the threads which interest you most.
-
This whole 700 or so unread posts is a giant pain in my ass!!! So I actually have to go through and "read first unread" for all 700!!!!! :shock2: :doh: :sadban:
PS Can\'t wait for vBlack again, never liked vBlue myslef either
