Just wondering Anne, It's soooo good not having the ads, will these be returning?

Also the little box, in the top left hand corner of the screen has the dreaded x.

So far I'm enjoying it, and it feels alot faster to me. (I love this little fella- will be using him alot)

When I logged on this morning, I thought I was on a new site! I love the layout and that your Private Messages are at the top of the screen. I also like that you can change the Display Mode of the thread.

I will have to go investigate all the other new changes.

Alas the ads will be returning - currently it's the only way for us to make some money to support the site. We are always looking into ways to make the ads less intrusive though. Depending on what certain advertising networks offer, we may be able to switch to text only ads. Another possibility on the horizon - paid subscriptions for an ad-less version of the site.

The dreaded X - I am working on getting header back in place and that should solve the problem.

Quick reply - yes, definitely, as soon as I figure out how to get it to work

This guy is always available on out smilie page - I need to sort out the display that shows alongside the posting page.

Thanks for your input - very much appreciated!

When someone sends a private message, the reply button is not there nd so i have to start a new message to reply to the one that was sent to me.

ALso, I noticed that the forum displays each persons IP address. Shouldnt they be kept private?

Please ignore the color changes folks. I'm sorry I have to work on this while we're all here. I had planned to finish everything much earlier but as luck would have it the VB site crashed right when I was working. So it was either close this place for the day or let you all see the work in progress...

Right now I am still working on the templates, once that's done I will look into all other issues. I've had to switch off the option to choose between styles - I hope this is just temporary.

Hedi- you have a portion that says Quick Links, if you click on that, you will see all sorts of options including View all new posts.

Uh, oh: I wanted to dump my Easter avatar, and go back to the custom one I normally use, but no go. Aren't custom avatars going to be allowed any more, or is this just temporary?

Okay at the risk of sounding like an idiot, are the picture uploaded suppossed to be links? I just made a thread in the Fur Pictures only forum and attached pictures and all it is showing is links. Of course the links work but I was wondering if I have done something wrong?

I don't think anyone is doing anything wrong. Anne is still chasing the problems and until she is finished there is likely to be all sorts of problems that you encounter. Just look at it as we are in the beta stage right now-

Are you still seeing images as links? I think I set it up properly now - please let me know if you're still seeing just link. BTW you can have up to 3 attachments per post now.

Oh yeah.....finally a pop up notification for Private Messages!!! Now I'm totally satisfied!!

One question, where do I go to change the title under my avatar? I can't seem to find it? Maybe I missed it when I scrolled through the options.

Thanks Anne for all the changes!

I couldn't find how to do this, I went to edit profile and I don't think there was anything about uploading a picture to my profile?

I like google ads!

Thanks again Anne.
