That's a style issue best left for later or possibly even the vB devs.
I'm not sure how feasible that would be, but it's something I've been thinking about too. It would involve custom templates, which can start to get tricky when trying to keep the software updated. |

Eh? The width probably won't be too far from what it is now once the ads are given final placement and such. It was actually narrowed a bit the other day when I noticed lots of white space. The sidebar should also be pushed back to the left. But again anything involving the current look is a subject best left for later when that's the focus. [/ QUOTE ] I completely agree with tuq. The margins are HUGE! Is this a screen resolution (1600x1200) issue? ![]() {Thumbnail so it doesn't stretch everyone's page) |

As I said, anything related to how it looks should come later. If you comment about any of that now you're probably just wasting your time anyway because you aren't viewing what we intend. Having said that a few times now, I'm probably not going to address it again until we're there. |

[img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] I mean this in the nicest way possible... [/ QUOTE ] OMG WHY ARE YOU FLAMING US?!!?! Anyway, here's some comments: - clicking on the "last post by" link no longer takes you to the last post, it takes you to that user's profile. There are a lot of threads I don't want to show up as marked read so I just click on that last post and scroll up, sort of like dipping my toe in the pool. If the thread is not of interest to me, then I don't have to deal with it being marked read and drawing my attention all the time. I may be the only one who does this though. - it would be nice to have emoticons and URL/image stuff in quick reply, but if that is considered too much clutter then never mind. - the most recent thread in the test forum is StevieG posting about the ability for all users to embed Youtube videos. I think this would be a terrible idea, particularly if they auto-launch (iron had a self-launching Youtube video embedded in one of these threads that freaked me out). That and the ability to change font size/marquee etc., I hope all that stuff is disabled for regular users (hell, or everyone, but mods seem to use it sparingly and appropriately). Hopefully that is more of what you are looking for. |

I can't say I'm a big fan of having to click on a button in someone's post in order to activate quick reply. I'd much rather just have quick reply assume I'm responding to the last post, just like it does now.

ryan,
I 2nd entertainme in talking about how HH will work. If you have an idea I think it would be a good idea to PM tickner (he does the lego converter) That said, I know you dont want look stuff, but avatars, locations and titles are needed. Also, the who the thread is by needs to be WAY more visable. Something I just noticed too was that when you click on a users name to send them a PM (or edit them) the option to visit their homepage comes up. Might wanna disable that. |

Ive noticed something which may or may not be relevant.
In the strat forums, when a hand history is posted in its converted format, the HTML tags which control the images ie [ img ] and [ /img ] and fonts and such are now (I assume) obsolete, meaning that instead of an image of a card or whatever, you just get code. ![]() This is going to be a huge problem if not rectified as the people who make the HH converters are going to have to completely recode their programs, and all HH posted are going to be corrupt. I am pretty sure that the vB developers can organise a way around this but just thought I would point this out if you hadn't noticed already. |

I should clarify this a bit more.
Poke around and see what comes to mind. I'd also like to see most of this discussion take place over there to keep it more or less in one place. Those who were around for the UBB 7 stuff should note that things will be a bit different here. We actually have much less to discuss beforehand, as last time we were dealing with a total reorganization and new sidebar too. While vB does provide substantially more features, there's nothing that says we need to have every specific ironed out before going forward, like whether a minor setting should 9 or 10. |
