New site feedback

I would like the option of turning my VR purple, although things like getting pictures back in the picture gallery should probably come first. Also, I think a new favicon for a new VR would fit a bit better than the old one.

My one major complaint is I find fixed width sites really difficult and uncomfortable to use

also, reply button being where it is makes it impossible to use the site on my phone

There's no way to be all like 'hey, I wanna see the last 5 posts by this person', I think...

Is there a search function anywhere?

The features that I've noticed missing that I used alot are the drop down menu at the bottom of the page, the first few and last few page numbers next to the thread title in the forum, and at the moment I can't see any pictures in the gallery.

Am having a bit of trouble with "view first unread post". I'm clicking on new, but it just brings me to the first page of the thread.

1. Time Last online/Last post/Last pm section is gone, as is looking at last 5-25 posts feature.
2. I really liked when the individual posts were alternating colours so it was clear.
3. Could there be a reply box on the bottom of the page as well as this pop up one too please? Sometimes this takes a while to load, plus I liked being able to scroll up and down the page and add quotes and things from the thread if I needed to.
4. The drop-down box at the bottom is gone as has been pointed out.
5. I liked being able to pick the page number I wanted to go to.

Also also also if you make colour schemes again can you do a pink one pleeeeeeeease.

Strawberry cannot login at-all, but I am not sure howcome.
She sent me a message...

"i've tried logging in loads of times and it doesn't work for me. Whenever i've tried to log in, it says this on my laptop:

Fission mailed
Unrefined subroutine & main.called
File: index.pl
Line: 166

i don't know what any of that means".

Please can anyone help her at-all. Her email address is...malpas60 (at) hotmail (spot) com

Safari on me Mac doesn't render the reply box correctly.

Things I've noticed so far:

I've donated, but I can't make myself a member of the VIP Group and a Global Mod unless I'm being a moron.

" Doesn't seem to work, it does the " thing. Don't know if that goes for other characters as yet.

Split/Splice is gone...I used that a few times to move offtopic things etc and it would be handy to have it back. If it's not there already, I could be missing it due to blindness.

Would be good to see when people posted in the shoutbox again & to be able to view past shouts.

"Days since online" in profiles is wrong, it says I haven't been online in three days, I feel like I'm in a paradox.

& Pre-change quotes in PMs and signatures don't seem to work.

I've noticed that the postcount hangs over the post, I dunno if it's meant to..

Icons for Twitter, Facebook etc in Profile are a good idea, but even though I've put the URLs for mine in, they don't show in my profile. Or rather, the icons do, but they don't link to anything.

Also, on the menu page, regarding the boxes with the X in them beside each board name, could we get something like the old style whereby that box changes colour or something if a new post has been made in it. I know there is the Last post: 3 minutes ago or whatever, but thats kinda hard to follow sometimes.

It's not sorting automatically by most recent post any more. Is there an option or something, or is it just a bug?

Ironically I appear to have found a new bug, or I'm being stupid again. The pagecount only goes up to 5 but this is page 6 so I can't see my post unless I click the thread from the recent posts on the main page. It doesn't move to page 6 if I click the right arrow either

i know it's already been said but i am finding it really really difficult to distinguish between posts without having the colours behind them to break them up a bit

also, the split between a post and a sig seems to be a lot less obvious now, as the dotted line is greyed out... if you get what i mean?

Well, would it be possible if, when you click on the last posted in link on Main, that it takes you to the last post in the thread, as opposed to the first page? I've not explained that very well, I'm afraid.

Also, can we have something very visible like a gold star or something over the board if new posts have been made? I'm finding it difficult to tell if there have been new posts without clicking on the last posted in bit.

Cheers

Double Post!

But I miss having a five minute window to edit things without it showing up on the post.

I like the new font for the site name. Using only one L, very economical, smart move in the current climate, you just don't know where your next L is coming from.

So, anyone can edit anyone else's posts eh?

This is gonna be interesting.

Andjrames does indeed have MADSKILLZ


Darren, any idea when he'll be up here next?

Also, feel free to rename secret rants the B*tch About James page, because you'll not see me in there.

Don't know if I'll be entering it either. Might do, but I've never been able to get Paypal to work, so don't think I'd be able to access it even if I wanted to

The paypal donate isn't working, I've tried, Andramtkin's gots tos gets paids, he has funded this place out of his own pocket for a fair old time.

Also, the censor might need a bit of work. Isn't that right Cassius?

Sorry, Barry? Did you say something?

Hey, this isn't jim btw, he's still on his hippie trip around the Americas. Should be near a computer in 2 weeks but not due back home before august. He wanted me to keep an eye on this place for him while he's gone. Thought i'd surprise him by having it upgraded for when he get's back. If the paypal link isn't working, just send it to his email. Then get a mod to put you in the right group. It's quite important the site becomes self sufficiant. About a tenner a month, so if 10 people subscribe, it's sorted. I don't think he'll fix any bugs before he's back in the country. it's be nice if someone could put the list of bugs in the first post and keep it up to date.

the site shouald work with everything over ie6. Profiles should still work.

chris. I would have posted sooner but he didn't leave the password for his account!

It's all shiny and new. I like the new logo and I don't mind the new features.

I'm going to spend some time getting used to this new design and layout before I give any real feedback, though.

EDIT: Actually, I do have an issue. Page 4 doesn't show for this thread in the page list.

Wow. No wonder the wee sod hasn't been responding to any messages I've been sending him.
