Nothing changed with that! It is (right now) the same graphic we used with the old system ...

I just noticed....when you edit your post you can also type a reason why.....

Same with deleting a post.

Just noticed, When you vote on a poll it italicizes whatever you voted for. I know there's so many times where it say i've already voted but I don't remember what I voted for!

Also noticed that the list of active users on the Main Index screen is not in alphabetical order.

Not that it really makes a difference because when you click on Currently Active Users, the list is in order.....

Also, the list of today's birthdays are not in alpha order either. Again, just a minor thing that I noticed....and probably not worth the effort to change.

Paul reset the web server, this should (we hope) fix the search and maybe the uploading problems. Let us know!

The Entire "visible/invisible" mystery:

When you have yourself set to invisible, you see a red dot by your own name, and and asterisk by your name in the "Who's online" list.

The only other people who can see you as being online are Paul and myself. To everyone else, your "dot" is grey, and you do not appear on the who's online list as anything but one of the "guests."

Needless to say, I see many more people on "who's online" than you all do, including lurkers, which is interesting to see! Certain folks never post, but visit frequently! It is okay, shy ones, I won't give you away!

Karen,

Are you offically allowing larger signature spaces now, or is the old
limit still in effect? I noticed recently that some seem to have very large
sig. space used while others is a pretty small. Thanks.

[catnapper]

Good point Lizbud! I think it still needs to be small -- those on dialup have a hard time uploading everything. Besides, I think it is easy to create a pretty siggy, true artistry to create a pretty sig that still speaks well in a small size.

[lizbud]

I agree catnapper. It doesn't have to be large, just big enough to see
all pictures clearly.Your's is great. It's pretty, colorful and clear. I'd still
like to know what Karen & Paul think about sizes now.

[Kfamr]

See, the problem is that although her's is pretty, clear, etc.. it too is above the signature size limit. It's hard to create a signature that follows the size limit and still clear. Takes a lot of fooling around with and I hate the pixelated look it gets.

I think if the rule is to be inforced it should say somewhere in the FAQ or rules when you enter. There's a lot of newcomers that have no clue.

[Jessika]

Yeah I definitely have no clue, and before even making a signature I even looked to see if there were restrictions, and found NONE. So if there ARE rules here, they need to be a lot more obvious.

EDIT: Oh and to who said something about having smaller images for those on dial-up?? Well there IS an option in your profile to turn off images and/or signatures, or both, so that will help out those on dialup. Instead of an image there will just be a a link to the image instead of the actual image. So I don't think size or loading time should really be that big of an issue since you can turn images off.

Kay, I know, that's why I'd like to know if there's been a change made.
I do realize how hard it is to make pictures clear with all the space squished
up. I hope the rule has been relaxed a bit.

Ooopsie... I swear when I saved it on my computer, it was 24 and now its 26. Thats not the first time that happened... HOW does the file grow larger? I'll resave it tomorrow.
