We're Back

[Marian Rowling]

Well I do like the new look and colours although I find the logging in boxes a little small now......it's probably my age! I was wondering about the email updates to subscribed threads. I was getting them a couple of days ago but they seem to have stopped for the last two. Is it still part of the updating, and when they return will the links in them take you to the lates post as before? They have been taking you to the first page of threads.

Just also want to say my thanks to all that are working so hard to bring us our much loved site, I to missed it, more than I realised.

I stayed away till this was somewhat stable, and my sketch folder almost burst! Only thing I miss are the thread thumbnails in the WIP forum.
Overall I didn't really do much anything. I did draw kinda more, but I also constantly spammed Tumblr. Also I potentially offended people and seems like I somehow screwed my arm muscles up!
Also I enjoy running around here now without my Avast going nuts so great thanks for all!

[Ian Barker]

Loving the attachment manager now, vastly improved, only thing is I wish I could use it from the quick post options.

Are thread thumbnails planned to return?

[Star Eater]

Glad you are enjoying it Ian

However, once again a reminder to you guys that everything that is missing/lacking is
only because our admin are rebuilding and securing the site from the ground up. Things
will be appearing and disappearing quite a bit still.

I just hope my ten bazillion thanks aren't gone forever. I subsist on internet validation.

Your existence has been validated.

Is this still happening?

Is anyone else getting 'database error' whenever they try editing a post? Wondering if it's an issue on my end or just upgrading kinks being worked out.

Thanks button is back

[garg]

Is this still happening? That's the IP of the old server and it shouldn't be looking for that.

I timed it, and it took one and a half minutes to load this page.
Firefox says it's 'waiting for 66.150.138.143'.

[Star Eater]

I don't think it is garg. At least its not for me, has not been happening for a while.

[Ian Barker]

Cool, thanks are back

Does the "Remember Me" button not work for anyone else at log in? Not working for me and is a small annoyance.

Just noticed auto-save on posts, I'm sure that will save my life at some point

Edit: Thumbnails are back too I guess things are just about completed!

[Nemome]

Had a small conversation with Jason Manley this evening and he told me that there are still a loooooooooot of stuff on the way.
Right now they are focusing on getting the forum functions to work properly and afterwards they are going over the design again.
So yeah.
Sounds damn good to me so we just have to wait and see how everything develops over the next months

Did we fix the email notification? LOL, I walk away from my computer for ten minutes and come back to fifty email notifications from CA.

Yep, our guys are currently working them.

[Vulgar`]

Can there be an oldschool skin option?

[Black Spot]

The site isn't finished and the whole look may be changed. Bide your time and be happy you can post.

Hopefully unsubscribe is next.

Anybody else make the mistake of clicking on 'reply to post' after typing a response only to lose everything, or is it just me? I've done it like five times now. If you reply to quote under the person you want to quote there is no problem but if you reply at the end of a thread the button on the left is confusing cause it draws your attention more than the 'post quick reply' button on the right.

Nope, not at all, but we are getting there.

I don't have that problem.
It might be because it has happened to me so often that every time I finish, I hover around cautiously, reading all the buttons.
What bothers me more is that I can't middle-click "go advanced" which means in order to respond, I have to copy the URL, open the page again just to have on tab viewing the thread and one tab replying. Or is there a solution I miss?

[DefiledVisions]

I feel the thanks button and report button are too close to each other. It feels like I'll accidently report someone. Perhaps move it to the top of a post? Next to the "#postnumber"

just a thought Love the work that's been done so far. Looking forward to all the new changes.

*edit* I had to try it for myself. On second thought, pressing report doesn't lead directly to a post being reported. It brings you to a screen where you have to motivate why, which is good. If you accidently press report instead of thanks it's not worse than having to go back one page and press the right button instead not as bad as I thought.

[Ian Barker]

I notice the home page redirects to the forum now. Any plans to bring it back, presumably in more useful form?
