Hoo boy.





Oh, and now you click the quote at the bottom of the post rather than the top. Duly noted. Thanks Andreas!

[robthehand]

Wow, this is like some kind of parallel universe. I like it!

[SomeNewGuy]

Spiffy. B)

[Marian Schedenig]

To tell the truth, I'm still not convinced we need this (especially since it costs money). But it does seem to work, and I guess we can get used to the new design as well (although those message type icons look a bit confusing).

But congratulations are in order, seems to be a very smooth transition!

I do miss quick reply though.

[Stefancos]

Small comment, the max size for avatars seems to have gone down again.

Right now I'm missing quick reply, but that's not really a biggie.

To tell the truth, I'm still not convinced we need this (especially since it costs money).

Is that really your problem, since (to my knowledge) you are not a paying member.

I am, so I should get special powers like Marc has.....

[robthehand]

Hey, Steef, you're only an "Advanced Member" like most of the rest of us!!

[Stefancos]

I have been betrayed....I have been so terribly...betrayed!

testing, whoever reads this has no life!

[Mark Olivarez]

It will take some time to get used to but it looks good so far.

[Stefancos]

Testing the upload function.

[Jim Ware]

I like it! Testing my new avatar.

[Stefancos]

So am I!

[Andreas]

Hehe,

this is the best messageboard system, we can do everythink!

- Quick replay enable (to always use it change the option in "My controls"

- Now you can use avaters up to 150x150 pixels

Andreas

[Stefancos]

Done, thank you Andreas.

[Red Rabbit]

Its going to take some getting use to, but it is an improvement.

Thanks Andreas

[Panthera]

Woah.... I didn't know there would be a change.

[Stefancos]

It had been announced for a week now, you know...

[Blumenkohl]

Looking good, except the banner doesn't quite match the site....


How about...

[king mark]

It had been announced for a week now, you know...

Advanced Member...what the hell?I'm a Master.Everyone's an advanced member


k.M.

[Stefancos]

Looks good

[king mark]

Leave somekind of color in the background...white was too blinding.

and fix the MB ranks please.

not enough emoticons

looks pretty good other wise

K.M.Already used to it

[Josh500]

Wow this is really great. Needs some time to getting used to, though. Twenty minutes should suffice.

[John Crichton]

Steef, KM, here's the solution to the title problems:

Go to My Controls, then Edit Profile Information. The first option on there is Custom Member Title, where you can make it whatever you want. As you can see I've changed mine, but I don't know if I'll keep it.

[Mr. Breathmask]

Please note that the PM system now holds only 50 messages. You may need to delete some old ones if you want to receive new messages (for trading, for instance).

[Luke Skywalker]

Wow cool new board

New face for the board, new face for Luke.

LOL

[Greg1138]

Oh my - this is going to take some getting used to!!!

Thanks for all your efforts, Andreas! I look forward to having time to have a play!

Greg - just off to work...

[Maurizio]

Really cool and slick new design. I like it very much! Congrats!

[Morlock]

Very nice. It's gonna take a while to get used to it, but very nice.

One thing I've noticed....my PM box was about 65% full, and now it says it's 100%....what's the new limit?

[Mr. Breathmask]

Please note that the PM system now holds only 50 messages. You may need to delete some old ones if you want to receive new messages (for trading, for instance).

[Stefancos]

Why am I still only a advanced member?

I'm a Grand Master, god dammit!

[Morlock]

Ah. Well, there it is.

EDIT: Apparantly, that also includes sent items, people.

[Mr. Breathmask]

Why am I still only a advanced member?

You can change your title to whatever you want in your Profile Information, Steef.

Which John Crichton already mentioned.

Ah. Well, there it is.

EDIT: Apparantly, that also includes sent items, people.

It does. I haven't been able to find a setting for it yet.

Andreas, would you mind setting that limit a bit higher? It used to be 100 items in both your Inbox and Sent box (and I think also in your Save box).

There ya' go.

[Stefancos]

This is frankly unacceptable Marc.
First of all this means that I have to set this myself, which is uncouth.

Also it means anyone can call himself a Grand Master, which is just Soviet!

[Mr. Breathmask]

Then come up with something original, why don't you?

[Stefancos]

With this new MB we can do everything ourselves.

So we don't really need you anymore, right?
