"Blinded" meaning small I guess. I still don't understand what everyone was seeing but anway. I have my resolution at 1280x1024 and never had a problem. [smiley=shrug.gif]
Btw! I'm going to be taking the forum up and down at any time for at least the next few days as the tweaking is being done. Copy those posts to your clipboard if you are typing something long!! [smiley=devil_smiley_grintail.gif]

Also, in the Info Center at the bottom you can get to your PMs. (actually, the other forum had that there as well)
Susan, if you don't click the button, then it won't mark it as read even if you logout.

I was going to edit this, but I had to see what a quote-within-a-quote looked like. :

Status : Offline | Oh! I thought of something else:
Is the drop-down menu that lets you link to other forums only available when you're visiting a forum or thread? I got used to it being on every page no matter what and it's kind of awkward to click the "Home" button to get to the list of forums, then click which forum I want.
And an example of how the light blue text is too light: Just click the Members button & see how it clashes!
Although there is no "Top 30" filter for the members, I see there are other sorting filters, which is cool.

Yes, the jump menu is on all pages.
I'll check the member list for color problems. I see my name color is barely visible now.

- Hey, since when did our messages have a limit? Some posters are going to be replying to themselves just to get all their words in.
There was the same limit before too. I know I had to make a double or triple post sometimes, and I'm not the most verbose user out there. Oddly enough, split posts are particularly common on the P&R board, but not so much elsewhere. :

[edit]Did anyone notice the "Live Preview" option when you're typing a post? (click the + by it to open it)[/edit]

As far as I know, they are truly deleted. I didn't get any message like that when popup notification was on. Weird!

How do you propose a competition is done for new forum titles (for above 2500 posts; probably 2-3 more categories)?

Nice work Val. Only one issue here so far, and one that's been previously mentioned... the whole screen keeps shifting from middle to left bias, I'm assuming to do with the adverts. Any way I can stop it doing that, because it's very very annoying!

Actually, what I (and Chris.) suggested was that you might bump up the post requirements for Grand Master and introduce some extra levels below that. (See this post and this one.)
Would that be possible?
If so you could just post a topic getting people to suggest names for levels and you and Randy choose your favourites. You could offer a prize, but people might just be happy with the knowledge that their idea has become immortalised in the structure of the Forum. [I know I would [smiley=happy.gif] ]

Are you sure it didn't say 'Outbox'? That's what mine said.
Good job on the face lift, everyone. A forum is like a woman; no matter how much you love her, you want her to take good care of her appeareance as well.

The "all" option is gone however I can put in any number as the max. Haven't decided what that number should be yet.
