Edit: and yet it works!?!? Strange.
what was the error exactly?Superdeft said:Produces an upload error.
Would you say mine is too long? I agree yes, there needs to be SOME kind of limiting but how would you honestly go about doing it? When someone writes an essay and has it in their sig there is a problem, but listing sponsors or having a quote, I dunno, its not that big of a deal as long as its some what under control.911 said:
The main bulk of what makes the threads so big right now appears to be the table spacing/padding and space between tables, with those fixed it might not be such an issue.
Here it is:Ridemonkey said:
"There has been an error in the upload. Please ensure that the file has been correctly selected and that the upload has taken place successfully."
For example, check these 3 spots out. (see image for locations)
1) large amount of space between top table of post where the date is, the hr, and where the text actually begins, by making this slightly smaller you reduce page length exponentially
2) again, more space where not as much is needed, the space between the bottom of the sig and the bottom of the post table could be reduced
3) 10-15 or so pixels could be removed to put the tables up against each other which would reduce the page even more.
I know how much of a nightmare it can be to tweak forum software so I don't mean to be picky, just a few ideas that might be worth looking into. Good luck with the tweaks RM

Did not get the error message.
actually i think it would still be linear. hehemplutodh1 said:
note 2: the Get New link from the front page is still not fixed as of 3:53 pm on sunday
note 3: where is "mark all as read" on the view new posts/get new page?
note 4: i have browsed with the option of not viewing signatures for quite a while since sig length/complexity/images are out of hand imo.
Haha, well yes, I dunno what i was thinking, I blame it on my studying for finals (hmmm yeah or lack there of)Toshi said:actually i think it would still be linear. hehe
one thing that i think needs to be added. dont know if it has been metioned yet but like not in the thread but where all the thread are listed you should have page numbers there.but how it is not i have to open the thread then click on the last page.
It's different I miss the familiar, but I am sure I will get used to the new.Great job on getting this up and running on the new server...I would be bored outta my mind without the
whooaaa went to the lake for the weekend and come back and wow. Very cool new looking stuff.
:angry: :angry: :mumble: :mumble: Start tweeking please! The new style sucks ****!!Ridemonkey said:I figure I'd start with something new and tweek it until you stop bitching about it
Even though it is the same people and all it seems so different. At least change the colors so they are more simlilar to the old style. Or maybe give us the option up selecting how we view the forum.

Aye! Aye! Aye! Aye! Aye! Aye! Aye! Aye! Aye! Aye! 
neaky:Is it just me or weren't the sticky threads a different color on the forum page than the other threads on the old server? I dunno maybe I'm crazy but it seems a whole bunch harder to differentiate between the sticky threads and the non-sticky threads now.
My Resolution is set at 1280x1024. I hate big fonts! Its not showing up on my screen any bigger than it used to.Roasted said:

i think the problem is directly related to how much eminem you have cued up. delete all those music files and try it again :eviltongu
This is too radical of a change...something more like the old layout would be cool.
Apparently posts now have to be more than 10 characters.

Not to Derail the thread, but.... suck itSuperdeft said:
I love Emienem, he is a great artist, and has incredible ways of getting himself out there and recognized as a name. "all publicity is good publicity"and, back on topic, AYE AYE AYE!
same here..my computer has been down for a bit...then I come back to RM and I was thinking WTF!!maybe since I installed XP it's going to look like this from now on...but never the less this is the 2nd makeover of RM so I'm sure I will adjust just like I did to the las one....Dlaura said:
I get home with a high reso and everything is fine. At 1024x768 the fonts are massive (for me)...no worries. I can live with it. I just like to be able to change the font size with ease.BigMike said:My Resolution is set at 1280x1024. I hate big fonts! Its not showing up on my screen any bigger than it used to.

About the titles under the usernames.... WHERE DID TURBO MONKEY GO!? I dont wanna be just a registered user nobody. :mumble: :mumble: 
Edit: also, I think it would be nice to have back, in the forum, the list of who is in that forum at the time. I liked that a lot.

After doing a reply or when you are viewing a thread..
if you look near the top you have "Ridemonkey > Biking Forums > The Lounge"
would it be possible to also add one at the bottom? Why?
well after posting a reply you are automatically directed to you last post...in the older forum I could simply click on "The Lounge" and keep on reading new posts. Now I have scroll to the top which it time consuming
thanks.

Awesome!
Threads that I have posted in, that have unread posts, no longer show up as an open envelope with the black dot. They now show as a closed envelope with the black dot.

all good now
only complaint i have is in the main forum indexes there is no red envelope for threads with alot of replies, only the yellow for ones that have been replied to and grey for everything else...either threads without replies or hot threads, theyre all the same color
Looks like MTBR now...
Buttons and what not are in different places etc.
No biggie, Ill get use to it.

(1)When you finish a thread, or anytime you go back, you always are at the top of the page. It used to be you were returned to the same place you started from.
EG: If I click on a thread 2/3rds of the way down the Lounge page, I read it, and I decided to go back to another thread, I would return to the place on the Lounge page that I was just viewing, not the top of the page. It also happens when you go back a page within a thread. Instead of returning to the bottom of the previous page, you go to the top of the page.
(2)Get rid of the white text boxes in the username / post count areas and just show the information. It would make the forums look much better.
I'll get used to the changes, but I miss the color. The new site looks too bland and sterile.
whats up with the picture picture attachments? how do you make the pictures come up as pictures other than filenames?

I know have this flashing things at the top of the pages. It wants me to click it and stuff. Get rid of that!
We'll get that fixed.shifty S said:
