All very smart, this forum here.
and the site works on the mac better than most sites companys pay for.
Just wondering whats happened to the gallery photo pages?
Can't see it around.

[MikQuattro]

The gallery, unfortunately, is broke. The data is all still there, but the script is broke and that is my next major item on the to-do list.....

[Sephiroth401]

******, i take it very time consuming work then.
Great work on the site though.

Hi Mik,

Great updates, but could I maybe suggest a few tweaks?

1. The user CP box (bottom right on home page, is too low and therefore cannot be read without scrolling down (if you remember it is there). This is a very important box as it tells you if you have new PM's. Being below the page, people may not notice they have PM's. It really should sit where the current polls box is.

2. I agree with Jamo that the thread names are too squashed. Could we reduce the size of the Last post box a tad and also allow both boxes to run closer to the edges, as the thread box cuts off quite along way from the border.

3. As mentioned to Greg, I have just been forced to upgrade to IE7 on my work laptop and I have a problem on the posting page which I do not have under IE6 at home.

The problem would seem to be that the blank area to the left of the text entry box, in the 'Reply to Thread' window will not reduce down to zero on lower res settings (I am using 1024x768) under IE7, but it will under IE6. Therefore, I loose the right hand side of the smilies when writing a post?

This also means that I cannot see the arrows which allow me to expand the text window....which is a pain as I often write long winded and very dull messages...so maybe this is a good thing for your guys?

From a quite scan through your code, it would seem to be because of the way that IE handles your absolute sizing on line 577, which is currently set to 640px.

HPmuirt, is this a "take advantage of Mik while he's here" sort of thing? LOL....that's cool, I don't mind...

1. Done

2. Sorted

3. Try that (lemme know if it's still messed up)

Hi Mik,

IE7 advanced reply issue is still there for me.

Can you have another look at it?

Forum is looking Magic though!

Thanks,

Steve

Boss is watching mode

Some avatars are too raunchy for viewing at my workplace. My vote would be to remove the avatar pics from the Boss is Watching mode? (as before). Obviously go with the prevailing view on this.

Just wanted to say that the forum is looking really good. Navigating is much easier and I like the new layout.
Big thanks to Mik

P.s. will agree with the Avatar removal for boss is watching. Got greg's Christina lips on full view this afternoon which wasn't accepted well!

Guys, test the smilie box thing again for me please....

I just need to go thru the Boss style again and fix everything, will get to it asap...

[4WheelDrifter]

It's working for me now.
Keep up the good work Mik. It's good to have you back.
