Default We've Upgraded Forum Software

Hello Ladies and Gentlepeople.

We have updated the version of our forum software.

This has introduced a few new features, which may or may not be sticking around.

Some of the icons and stuff have changed, and we will do our best to get this place ship shape and looking like it should.

If you find any oddities please post them here.

Cheers!

James

I noticed that all of the pics posted in the gallery are shown as attachments, not as photos. To see then you have to click on each one separately.
Seems pretty odd to me.

Fixed

Maybe it's something with your settings because I'm not having that problem?

Hmmmm...

The image attachment thing is weird. In vwgary's picture thread, the images attached to the first post all shows as links to the actual image, while the attached image(s) in the last post shows as an actual image...

Fixed

There's no apostrophe before an 's' when you're talking about the plural version of a word. "I took some neat photo's!" is NOT correct.

Love the changes.
What I miss though is the location of the orger.

I am always curious in which state (or country for that matter ) the orgers live.

Is that feature gone now?

I'm with Marcia on the location info of the orger. After further lurking, I did notice that the "OLD FORUMS" menu is gone from the homepage. What's the status of it.

I've have too the same problem with pics, even on my thread. I'm getting the link for the pic, but no visible picture.

Fixed

I like the location bit too. I have not played around enough, but I like the friends thing, although I can see a High School thing happening there....

I miss the orange tabs, even though I love the blue. That's all I've noticed on my own so far.

Pretty pages! Thanks for all your hard work, everyone!
