[davepeck]

click on the vBChat link on the navbar and check it out..

still need to get some things ironed out (users in chat not showing up on the forum home page yet), but try it out and let me know what you think!

It looks great, dave, but is a bit difficult to navigate with the three scroll bars within one small box.

Will this mean an end to the "GET A ROOM!" ?

if you are using a browser that supports tabs you can open the vbchat link in a new tab and you get full screen rather than a tiny box

so many ways to communicate now, wow...

the size of the vbchat window is relevant to your screen size. it\'s currently set to open up at 60% of your screen\'s width, and 40% height.. the window IS expandable, so you can resize it to get rid of one scrollbar, but i believe the size of the inner window is static..

Excellent find!! Much better like that.

How does one exit the chat room other than /exit?

is there a way to enlarge the screen or is it one size? I don\'t understand what a browser with tabs mean, I am a little slow

i use firefox and konqueror, which are browsers that support tabs. with tabs you can open several pages in the same browser window rather than opening a separate browser for each page you have open, which clutters up your taskbar.

you should be able to drag the bottom-right corner of the window to resize..

in IE the resize arrow shows up but the size is locked and it wont go bigger or smaller. in firefox you dont even get the arrow that gives you the option of resizing. It will resize just fine in konqueror, but in that browser the text box and the box that shows the other users online are missing. they are just the dark purple background that the web site has.

I have noticed that there are Firefox ads or whatever on the homepage. Is Firefox a good browser? I was under the impression that the US Government put firefox out and they are some of the people I don\'t trust...

I\'m not sure but I thought it was an open source browser. Ever since I started using it I have had ZERO viruses screwing up my computer like IE has.
