Karen and Paul, I've waited until today to digest the new Pet Talk upgrade and I think it's great. Thanks for all work involved!

I'm still missing a couple of things but giving you time to finish what you have in mind.

I had some concern yesterday with the Members List, but today I notice it's in the old familiar format. Now I can search by Join Date. It used to default to newest members first, oldest last, which meant I was the third oldest member! Now it defaults to oldest first, which means I'm down the list!
(Just teasing.)

Now, about Phred's color problem - maybe use different shapes? I notice the icons have symbols in them - maybe symbols could be added.

Thanks again for a great Pet Talk!

Shapes are GOOD!!
The "old" Yelllow check mark being on/off was good enough for me!
I'm red/green color blind; but Yellow is always bright and noticable.
Blue is good as long as it's "bright" and not too deep or dark ...
some blues appear almost black.

Red/Green is the most common color deficiency ... but I know color blind folks who
see nothng but Black, White, and shades of Grey!

Thanks, Phred.

Say, in your post, now sandwiched between two of mine - on the right hand side next to the post number - do you see a triangle? I'm thinking "bad post" is not offered on our own posts.

Thanks Again.

Right you are!

You can't mark your OWN post as "bad"!

What HAPPENS if you hit that *clicker* on someone's post?????

I don't have the courage to "try it"!

Awww, NUTZ!

Notice the "Last edited by Cinder & Smoke : Today at 12:02 PM. Reason: typo
under my last post??

I went back in to fix a typo within 30 seconds or the original "posting" ...
And got "caught" with the "EDITED" flag!


I "used to" be able to fix schpelling and grammer errors
(within the first few minutes of a post being posted)
WITHOUT that "edited" flag being slapped on the post ...

NUTZ!

I just noticed another new feauture, you can "minimize" a Forum by clicking the 2 arrows on the right side of it.

LOL! Phred, perhaps you can edit without filling in the field, and it may noy show - haven't tried that myself.

Oh Phred, I see what you mean. Bad enough to see that you had to edit your post - but to be able to see the "reason" - makes it look like your grade just went from an "A" down to an A- ...........cause you couldn't spell!

"Report Bad Post" sends an automatic email to all the moderators/administrators and gives you a chance to put in a reason why you think it is a "bad" post.

Note, however, that it sends an email - NOT a private message, and if you need something noticed right away, a Private Message is always a faster way to reach me.

Paul is looking into the avatar problem, as noted in another post.

   Avatars should now be working again for everyone.
