Sweeeet board! Great job! :yay :yay
And I LOVE the banner!
Just wait until you find all the options now. :drool
You can hide the top boxes (user info and key stats) if you want to by clicking on the little carat next to the "home" button.
There's more good stuff to come... ;) :)

If you can't find asian porn on your own you're beyond help. :)
Very nice. Very impressive. Are we really going to get ponys?
hmmmm....we can use huge avatars..... >:D
Does the new software have resizing options? :-\

There's still a couple things that need tweaking. Don't worry, your avatars will be the same tiny 75 square they've always been. :)
You guys should all go into your Profiles and play around with all of the new options (pop up boxes for PMs, etc).
Ooh....more goodies ;D
And the nipple-hardening announcement is still to come.

At first I liked this, but I've since had the same experience as
Wingspan. What options do we have, if any, with this feature?
That should be turned off now. We still haven't gone through all the options yet either. :)

Looking good.
A little weird how the "Most Popular Boards By Activity" in user stats only add up to 1%.
Otherwise, I don't see any problems. Pretty cool how we can still use the old theme if we want.
Everything looks great.

Personally, I like the "show unread posts since your last visit". Just makes everything easier
What everyone else has said, nice job folks!
I now know the reason PG was a raving lunatic about this new board: the ::)
If we post this on every single post, will it go away again and drive her absolutely insane?
hahaha, nah, I'm too excited about the other announcement to care about roll eyes. LOL

Holy shtein, that is the funniest smiley I've seen in a long time.
Spiffy...
Is there an ignore button? Just wondering.

You're right...it would be easier to ignore you if all I had to do was press a button. :P ;)

what did I miss?
Is that Lito Sheppard in the banner ? ???
McNabb, Owens, Hollywood, Westbrok, Michael Lewis, Simon, Darth, Freak
That banner is sick guys and everything else is tremendous. Thanks for all the hard work.
i second that LGM! Sweet! :CF
Phreaky likey. Phreaky want wingy :D
I can finally use my avatar. It is 80x80 and I never knew how to re-size stuff so I'm glad I can use it now.
I just wish I had a bigger monitor so I didn't have the scroll bar at the bottom of the screen. Anyone want to buy me a new spiffy monitor? ;D

I like that also, along with all the other new options.
I'm seeing a green that looks closer to the old Kelly Green than Midnight Green, but I'm using an old monitor 'cause my good one bit the dust. Maybe thats what it is?

At least you all can see it.
Try clearing your cache...and then logging back in?
:'( Please Jerome..........come back.......... :'(
I can see it on all your posts big guy.
Clearing my chache? Is that anything like cleaning your colon?
Well, both clean out old shtein ...
Bingo! Don't know what happened, I guess Jerome heard my post!
The board looks awesome!
First, a couple of questions:
1. Is there anyway to get the drop down box back for additional smilies. My pop up blocker blocks it every time I want view more smilies so I have to turn it off.
2. When I'm viewing a thread I noticed that posters who have long names are cut off. Anyone else experiencing this and is it something that can/will be fixed?
Everything else seems great. Lot's of bells and whistles on the new site. Good job to everyone involved in putting this thing together. :yay

We'll get that back as soon as we can. It doesn't come with the board software.
The new board looks cool.
Only problem so far is when I make a post sometimes I get a weird error, I forget what it is, but if I get it again I'll post it.

Yeah, I think I got the same thing. I was in the middle of posting something and stepped away from my computer to grab something from the fridge. When I came back and finished my post and submitted it, I got an error about being timed out or something. When I logged in though, I clicked on the icon to always stay logged in. ???
Oh, you people and your silly ideas that things should work right.

Now that I think about it, how would you guys feel about all the normal sized smileys listed on the reply page with the regular ones? We can do that and leave the big ones on the popup.
Sounds good. That way, we don't have to go into the menu to get the laughing or paranoid ones....
All the more or less standard sized ones are up on the reply page now. Still can't do much about the order they're in. I left the splat one on the popup. If you guys really want it on here instead just let me know. :)
looks good GF. :yay Thanks

Thanks GL. Did you see the announcement and the new forum? 8)
Nice board......but is it my piece of shtein computer or is anybody else having a problem reading any other of the messages?
For example:
PG's post above mine shows only half her response on my screen....there is a scroll bar on the right side of the page that allows me to scroll down and see the rest of her message.......not much of a problem there........
However there are other messages around the board that I can only read a few lines of what is being said and there is no scroll bar that will allow me to see thre rest of the message...... ???
For example: Going Long's message right above PG's ends with: "it'll take a little time"....that's all I have on my screen.......
My only trouble so far has been when I hit the post button and it says that I've timed out, which I haven't.
...or have you? :paranoid

Is it me or is the MB loading very slow? I have no problesm with any other sites tonight. My PMs are cleared out too. ???
Its not you. Its been slow for me all day today too. I thought it was my new browser (just switched from IE to Mozilla), but I guess not.
Its been timing out for me all night.
The host that we just switched to, which came highly recommended, has been acting up all over the place. At least one of the F2FA sites has been down for close to three days, and the guy who runs it is rightfully pissed.
I've been having a ton of trouble getting the old domain name to point here, and after hearing about that I don't think it would be a bad idea to keep it pointed at the old site just in case.
I think you should too...mainly because people visiting it will think the site is gone for good.

It looks like the DNS servers are listed correctly in the whois lookups...but I suspect that the hostitnow DNS servers are not aware of the domain name and IP address relationship. You probably need to tap them to update their DNS server(s) accordingly.
I have been unable to connect to the board for most of the morning (at least consistently).

They're pretty backed up right now with requests to find out why so many sites are down. We're pretty low on the priority list this week.
Damn, new host means no more calling up and yelling at ProHosting? Shucks.
The only thing I noticed so far was that some peoples avatars are blue boxes? Other than that I am liking the new feel. :yay
"Who's Online" is pretty cool. Except now Big Brother is hiding what he's doing. :paranoid
Am I? I didn't turn that on, it must do that for admins by default.
Isn't there the option in your profile to change your status to "hidden" if you don't want anyone to know you're online?
