furryman
circles!

yerssot
ok!

NO bigger avatars for any member, only for mods and admin big grin

~*~Tassie~*~
How about..

When we update our sig, before automatically being transferred to the user control panel.. can't we preview it somehow ?

Storm
There is a preview.

Dexx
no there's not. it shows you your uploaded image. but by the time it is uploaded, your old one is deleted.
there is no need for a preview, though. size mpodifications don't occur...so...it is as you have it. why the need for a preview?

rusky
I see u've left out the criticism/downsides/yuck part evil face

j/k big grin Circles ? u mean like for the overall design ?

Dexx
no i didn't....i just forgot to finish the post with my " DISMISSED! thumb down " line.


and as i have stated before, i would very much like triangles instead of circles. don't know what for....but definitely triangles instread of circles.

Clovie
yerss' pics everywhere big grin

yerssot
that doesn't categorise as improvements

Agent Elrond
but it is a suggestion

make .bmp a valid extension. I have converting to JPG and losing the quality. Also, more layouts, skins, whatever they're called.


Edit: Add a full list of a vB codes. I know there is a link that explains it, but it only has some of the them. the glow, blur, reserve and alignment tags aren't listed. Also, we should be able to use html in our posts (if it can be done here)

Storm
The new styles are still "in progress" I take.
New Default Style

furryman
mad you and your 3 sided totally internally 360 degree angular sons of b!tches

Storm
A spellcheck when sending PM' s.

Clovie
why not?

but for sure it is an idea big grin

Dexx
the sum of the triangle internal angles is 180 furryman smile
360 is around a circle centre


a bmp has a way bigger size than the currently allowed one....and that's staying as it is smile....so i don't seee bmps coming

lil bitchiness
How about the jumping option to the sub-forums, or even to be able to see it on main index, just like we can for the General Fiction?

yerssot
bad idea and terrible suggestion


and for the bmp, bmps have the tendency to be huge

furryman
I knew that Dexx embarrasment

Evy_O
to see if it's the correct size?
cause then if it's not, sometimes, what you had written is erased... I think confused

not everyone has just a pic for their sig

Clovie
i still like it eek!

yerssot
no one else does

Clovie
i noticed cry
but i can't understand why....

yerssot
cause it's not a good idea, do you want your pic on this forum every page?

Clovie
of coz i don't want it.
i want yours.

yerssot
no one else wants that

Clovie
confused schade.

yerssot
das tut mir leid

Dexx
if the pic is oversized, then it will tell you so..and the former pic will NOT be deleted.
so there'so problem

Clovie
mir auch erm

Evy_O
nope, if for example, you want to use a pic and text; you don't know if the combo will be below 10 lines (that's the limit, no?)

or, if there's a way of finding it out OTHER than trying, I dunno it yet ninja

dave123
i suggest you ban yers.... tha will improve the forums considerably yes

yerssot
and drop the post count considerably too

Clovie
no cry
don't bann yers

dave123
its for our own good...

yerssot
ban everyone from otf and problem is solved dave

Clovie
don't bann me cry

or maybe it would set me free?

yerssot
perhaps you'll refind life eek!

Clovie
i'll wait with it till august. erm

yerssot
then you'll leave?

Clovie
yes
dunno for how long.
but for sure.
why?

yerssot
cause I like to kill a cat

dave123
this isn't the OTF stick out tongue

yerssot
no, but raz said he wouldn't close threads that got answered, so we're taking advantage of it stick out tongue

ÞÁØlå
this might be a bad idea but..... who cares? stick out tongue

do you guys remember at the otf how all this goodbye and congratulations threads flooded the poor and defenseless off-topic forum?

well.... what about a "Congratulations" forum, where we can post congrats to our people in birthdays, anniversaries, blah blah blah wink and also goodbye them?.... confused

I saw it in another forum and just thought it might work here......

oh!! and I almost forget: I totally and absolutely support Clovie on her idea rock

see ya every1! stick out tongue

BlackC@t
Heres a suggestion: why don't you stop critising others opinions? roll eyes (sarcastic)
I thought it was a brillaint idea.

Here are my real suggestions: Being able to get to the last page of note threads without having to go into the first page and the option to edit Thread titles that we've made.

TOH
1) Ban yers and dvae
2) PNG support
3) 100 x 100 px avatars
4) Show post count below avatar

ÞÁØlå
oh yeah I hate that!!! that's why I don't post in "note" threads stick out tongue

Clovie
tx for support happy


and to go to last page of note-thread you can cloick on the arrow sign next to name of last poster. smartass(yerss told me stick out tongue)

V@LL3jOk!D707
Ditto those(maybe expect number 1) plus image attachments for PM's.

ÞÁØlå
eek! oh yeah that's true!!!

notworthy that yerssot is a GOD! stick out tongue

Clovie
it is why we should put his pics everywhere happy notworthy

yerssot

Clovie
but yerss..
she said she like my idea happy

yerssot
all your ideas are great stick out tongue

Clovie
thank you for admitting it at last happy
so.. could you start posting your pics? shifty

yerssot
no no expression
lets do a new suggestion: clovie's pics everywhere

Clovie
immpossible.

yerssot
because

Clovie
i'm not you. *shrugs*

yerssot
that's the good thing, so why not?

hobbit_dude
laughing out loud

Clovie
you think so? confused

maybe coz there are NO my pics here!

yerssot
then post some

Clovie
maybe when i got my comp back. erm

yerssot
great!

Suggestion: always Clovie's pic on the mainpage big grin

Clovie
on my mainpage i'd prefer Yers pic big grin

yerssot
first yours wink

Dexx
could we keep at least one on topic? erm

yerssot
the suggestion of having a member pic on top of the page is not important to you dexx?

what if you were it? would you dislike it?

Clovie
confused we r exacly on topic.

Dexx
definitely

yerssot
but you posted it on a public board...

Dexx
yes, but not with the purpose of it ever appearing on top of the page.

yerssot
what if it says in the rules that it is for that purpose later on?

Dexx
if those were the rules...i would't have posted it.
but they aren't

Clovie
laughing out loud i would make some rules up.....
if only i were a mod.. or admin evil face

yerssot
I just don't get it though... you post it on a public forum but mind if it's on the mainpage... we all know how you look like dexx stick out tongue

Raz
Great ideas so far. I'll implement some of them soon. smile

Yers & Clovie - OTF is thata way!

yerssot
-update to vB 3
-moodboxes

silver_tears
What the heck is the point of mood boxes, I mean why not what are you listening to now boxes?

And I think that threads with alot of pictures in them, should have like galleries, like the member pics thread has.

Raz
The boxes can be in your sigs (like Phoes). Don't see the point of creating an extra field.

lil bitchiness
Wonderfull! eek!

Hope you're considering the subforum jummpy thingy! happy

BlackC@t
I like the sub-forum jump idea, maybe if that happens we can get more people in the Hulk forum happy

Tptmanno1
Well what I really liked was that after you became a cool member Raz would give you a specialized name. Like Ush was "Forum Paladan" and stuff. I think it would be cool if that was reinstated without the green boxes.

§pearhead
not necessarily, on my XP, when I try to save .jpgs and .gifs it only gives me the option of saving it as a .bmp, so I make a run to paint to change it and loose some color and focus in the process

ÞÁØlå
ok......... big grin


what about "yerssot's pics everywhere" idea? confused

Clovie
i'm sending pic via email. and then they r able to be saved as jpg and gif
and i have no idea why this stupid computer sometimes doesn't want to save pics in normal way.
i hate bmps and i hate paint.




GRACIE PAO!!!! (i spelled it right????)

yerssot
we already had that a time ago... dunno why it was dumped though

Tex was Forum Diva if memory serves

lil bitchiness
Kes was ''forum blink''

I loved that! laughing out loud

Tptmanno1
See wouldn't it be cool if it was brought back??

Ushgarak
Was I Forum Paladin? I don't remember customising that. Paladin is still under my name of course.

I think the problem was that it was 'rank' related, and we developed an aversion to rating systems quite a while ago.

Spearhead, that is an IE bug as far as I know- use 'save target as' and you will get the jpg or gif instead of the bmp.

Drac39
I was just curious cause you guys turn most summer hits into forums(Pirates of mthe Caribbean,Hulk,Terminator,Kill Bill) Why not AvsP it has great box office potential like those films

Dexx
DISMISSED! thumb down


you could've AT LEAST have posted this in the suggestion thread...that's what it's there for.
and you can't amke a section for a movie that not only is not out yet...but might very well be sucky.

i dislike the sections you mentioned there also....but hey...what can i do..

yerssot
POTC... cause those 13 year old fangirls had to get thrown to their own modless section cause it was hell otherwise
Hulk, it got created and is left dieing, should imo be deleted,... like terminator big grin
and KB cause BKK likes it

but come on ...AvP? it's not even out... and I reckon the only country where it will get a bit of money will be the US

Drac39
I dunn just mean AvsP I mean Alien,and Predator all together

yerssot
suggestion: those notes about changing usersnames and such... can they be written in firey-red and have a size 16?

an attempt to stop silly threads where it's already answered in a note

Raz
Still prolly won't make a difference...

yerssot
but would be at least a bit funny to still see people missing it

dave123
I suggest you sort out the thing that checks sig length yes fix it so it takes into account font sizes

Dexx
a big red font would be ridiculous.....erm

yerssot
yeah, so they can't miss it

Dexx
why does the board have to look awful because some n00b can't read?

yerssot
to show how redicule it is some miss it

Dexx
show to whom? i don't actually care if they're embarassed or not. it woulds till look awful and kiddish....for ALL of us

yerssot
to me, I already am awful and kiddish no expression

Clovie
let's make it purple!!! eek!

yerssot
can there be more than 5 smileys in a post ?

dave123
smile sad embarrasment big grin wink stick out tongue yes, there can

yerssot
wow, that was fast no expression

dave123
smile sad embarrasment stick out tongue wink big grin cool roll eyes (sarcastic) mad evil face 10, even

yerssot
I thought so yes

hobbit_dude
raz did u once tried to make a political forum??? y didnt work??? to many fights??? how long did it last???

Raz
Lasted for a few months. Yes there were lots of fights.

Fire
that's about it, it was the fault of ppl who couldn't keep calm and who were overly passionate and overly patriotic

hobbit_dude
were the ppl who fight the most about their patroism form america?? coz not that is a bad thing most americans are very patroists!!

dave123
you aint getting this forum, sorry sad

hobbit_dude
oh no I wasnt asking for it stick out tongue i just wanted to know about the previous one

hobbit_dude
anywayz Im off bye!!

Jedi Priestess
kewl! Im 13 again! eek!

yerssot
patriotism isn't, overtly patriotism very much is

and JP, my pleasure

Raz... 20 smileys in a reply? big grin

§pearhead
Just a question, why would you need so many smilies messed

and JP, youth is a gift stick out tongue cherish it!

yerssot

§pearhead
oh yea, I forgot the thing about quotes messed maybe only that part should be changed then?

and nice examples stick out tongue

yerssot
those examples popped instantly into my mind wink

and it would be ace if you can get the smileys not count in the quote big grin

BlackC@t
I was thinking of a games forum, we have so many people making games in the OTF that it's getting a bit clogged, think about it, we could have trivia games and everything. smile

Jedi Priestess
My suggestion is that the default for KMC be the BLACK.........posts and siggeys stand out better on a dark backround IMHO

dave123
but the smilies look poor with a white out-line erm

Jedi Priestess
mine never do? I have switched back to the default on occasion and everything just looks all washed out messed

BTW I love your Snoopy Dave!

silver_tears
I love the black, but the smilies piss me off embarrasment

G.P
Hey it was my Snoopy mad ! I used to have it as an avvy and more occasionnally as a sig before Dave even register here !


The audacity ! stick out tongue

dave123
well all the thanks goes to the wonderful silver for making it happy i didin't even give her the idea of snoopy big grin

G.P
Irene, we have to talk. no expression




That's worse because because Irene was here at the time I used this very Snoopy. sad Will soon my rabbit from the French subway and my Droopies be stolen too ?

dave123
well it's mine now happy

Dogbert
I would like to make a suggestion:
Make a list of all the banned memebers and the reason why they were banned. *crosses fingers*

dave123
yeah, and how long they have left eek!

Raz
That was on my to-do list.

With the latest developments, this is a must!

Stormy Day
Then the off-topic wouldnt be what it is sad

Jedi Priestess
you might make it post free to avoid all the eulogies. messed

silver_tears
*hides* ermm

lil bitchiness
Raz, is the sub-forum jumpy thingy ever gonna happen cry

Raz
Soon! smile

dave123
I want my new sig soon sweetie yes

BlackC@t
Raz could perhaps post the suggestions you've made after?

lil bitchiness
Scoreness!! happy

Cyclops
Raz,

I have heard through the grape vine that a Smallville forum was suggested and was turned down. May I:

1) Ask why it was rejected
2) Re-suggest on

Raz
There doesn't seem to be a need to create a forum.

BlackC@t
It's just KMC can get a bit boring with the same old forums erm......

golden moon
can we have a celebrity wallpaper contest?

Lil' Backfire
Is there anything I can do to convince you of otherwise?
