Thumbs up New Message Board Live!

Hey everyone,

The new message board is up and running. I'm still playing with some of our new features, so certain things may come or go over the next few weeks depending on how people use them. The new forum software integrates a lot of "social networking" features which can be great, but can also be abused. We'll see how it goes.

Over the next couple of days we'll be posting about new features and notable changes. We'll also be stomping out any bugs that we missed in the beta testing. If you notice any bugs, please contact us.

Now let's see who get the first "first" post

I tweaked my signature. I like the "Add your own picture" feature.

Hi Chris,

Have we lost the option to view the BB in full screen mode, my old settings disappeared the side menu, but I cannot find that option now?

Where did "marketting" go, or am I missing it.

Yikes, no more spell check. We're in trouble now.

Not enough people used that option to make it worthwhile to maintain it (I had to rewrite this entire theme to work with the new message board system). Maybe in the future I'll create a new "minimal" option, but not right now.

Hmm?it looks like the spell checker we were using doesn't work on this version of the forum, so I'll have to find something new. In the meantime, I'd recommend installing ieSpell, which lets you spellcheck any field in Internet Explorer, or use the newest version of Firefox, which has inline spellchecking (red underline, like MS word).

Cheers,

CM

I'm with you Gerry. I also used the MB in minimal(to get red of the blue sidebar)

I hope Chris will add that option back in.
