[ophis]

Update again.... so i will repeat my self again.

OLD DESIGN WAS BETTER LOOKING



....what was wrong with it. Is this because of adds?

[Hermes]

No way, ophis this is a professional screen but the spell check in message section doesn't work. Some bug?
I tried to locate Victor as the owner of the forum but he is hidden. No name like victor on forum.
Cheers Hermes

Hi Victor.


How do U now read Ur/Ones "Sent" messages?


I can not find a link anywhere! 

[esoito]

Simple question, why change it? do you have a reason to change it? and what is it?
I liked it as it was!

This upgrade is to take advantage of a host of new features now available -- including being able to stop spammers before they get a foot through the door.
That's a very important feature because spambots are widespread, increasing in numbers, persistent and it's a damned, time-wasting nuisance to get rid of their effects.
So in the end it's to all our advantage to have this very necessary upgrade.

@Chris


- attachimg positioning still not in place.


- Check your sent ones at: link:://rouletteforum.cc/pm/?f=sent Link on your left right below inbox.


- Allow some time, new features are still rusty because i must be careful when adding them. I do not want to make mistakes which can bring things down, so basically I'm adding bit by bit and leaving it in the same state until sure that I can add something more. It is a *LOT* easier this way rather than adding everything at once and then god knows what breaks what!!! This way you can pin-point easily in case of troubles: last addition is the clear culprit 


@mimoto


Besides, the new moderation features (not trivial given the recent amount of spam posts) there is also the security issue.


Keeping outdated versions of software in production/live systems is a #1 "No no", not because the product isn't capable of delivering, but outdated versions are for the most part unpatched and have holes.


Be certain no sane person who appreciated their computer's integrity will browse the web with -for instance- using Windows 98 and its internet explorer version... not because it isn't able of making a connection for browsing a site, but because it has more holes and exploits than you can recall. That is the silent ever-lasting war and for us to be on the safe side we must keep the forum's core upgraded.

....what was wrong with it.

Nothing. But sadly if we leave in place it means we would be exposed to unnecessary risks.





Why upgrade windows millennium or any of the Win9X branch when they are capable of processing data? Why upgrade to Word 2010 when you can still work with Word 95? or... Why upgrade from MST 1.0 if the roulette system you wish is coded on it?


As a proficient programmer you know the reason internally and intuitively.. don't you? 

[VLS]

P.S: Currently "whitening" it so it looks a bit more like our old self.


Remember this is not our final look, just a needed intermission... our "core" upon which modifications occur.

[VLS]

Something strange about attachment of images into a message?


Can You have a Look Victor?

OK, I did have a look to import the attachimg feature and the new forum's internal format is in fact showing differences from the one before and is creating some minor issues (at least minor than you could expect from a "version shift" upgrade like we had!)


I'm just needing a large cup of coffee instead of a small one 


This is one of the mandatory features and it is switched over to the top of priorities. Attachments + downloads that is.

Yes but didint know it was Core update and that old skin is not supported.

I did think its was just transfer to another (cheaper) server.

after posing a reply you are redirected out of the thread instead of being redirected to the thread you have just posted in.

No Biggy Boss, just put this at the back of the to-do list, but necc all the same.


On the Topic Headers, it says "Author", but not WHO THE AUTHOR IS.


As I say, just another of those- I'll do it when I get a "Round-2-it"

(I used to have one of those- masquerading as a Coffee mug!)

Also Boss, can you add the color 2Grey" to the color options please. I used it a lot to show the Intensity of certain texts, and take your eye to other words/phrases.
I can still make it work by adding the code.
[color=grey] Hi! Victor[/color]

cheers bro.

Addressed. Thanks for the report.

I am quite sastisfied with the new look of the forum but unhappy because can not see the images in the topics specially my compilation of roulette data in actuals.

[chrisbis]

News In Briefs. [reveal]Nickers, Are On The Line, In Shock Announcement!![reveal]The Washing Line, that is! LoL[/reveal][/reveal]


Here, few items to consider:-
The Guest Title in the "Who's On Line?", section, are too bold. (Maybe [color=grey]Scale[/color]?)


The "Section on View" is not bold enough. The Viewing/Posting/Printing/Others Titles, are not the important issue here, but the section that people are visiting IS! (In My Humble Opinion)


(Note:- Again, my Humour is laid open for all to inspect, until the Reveal Function comes back to Forums shores!)
