I like the new background image, although it is a little bit sketchy to browse in public xD
Btw is there an option to turn off "watching Topics" permanentely? I do not want to uncheck the checkbox every time I post.

Is there any way to get rid of those notification emails? I've already set it in my Preferences so that I don't get them, but I still do.

You get them when you watch a topic. There is no setting to turn off e-mails for that I'm afraid. Asad

I dun even deliberately click that "watch this topic" thing. D:

by **PT-Desu** Sun Mar 11, 2012 11:08 pm

The option can't be made off as default, i asked the forum support guys.
Go to your profile and check "Topics being watched" , also go to "Always notify me of replies :" under Preferences and check "no" .

Doing that will make the "Notify" thing off by default.

There seems to be some kind of glitch when uploading avys from my computer.

I uploaded one and it turned into Brandon's avy. No joke Adissapoint

Didn't you managed to change avy recently?
also, if your uplaoding from your PC it needs to be smaller than 64kb

I had to upload it multiple times.

I've only had to re-upload my avatar twice. For what ever reason when I tried to upload my new avy for the first time it changed my avatar back to one of my previous ones.

by **PT-Desu** Sun Apr 01, 2012 5:21 am

As long as you guys can get it to work it's ok, since i can't change anything related to that (it's related to the forum host).
If in the future you can't upload them from your computer you can always go with the alternative.

I tried my best to support the lowest but there is so much i can do with the crappy CSS this forum uses.

Would it be possible to use a fixed width or to increase the minimum width by about 100 pixels? That should fix the problem and it's something even a crappy CSS could be capable of.

I would have to rebuild everything with HTML instead of CSS, i have some knowledge of it but i'd say not enough, along with available time :(
I can try making the forum widther, i think, but i'll have to try it Saturday when i have more free time since i will probably have to change other stuff too.

Also could you guys post screenshots of how you are viewing the forum atm ?
Also what resolutions your using

by Efrye Thu Apr 19, 2012 6:17 am

The resolution is 1050*1680. It's my secondary monitor which is flipped vertically, so the 1050 is actually the width. You should be able to recreate the problem by simply scaling down your browser window.

It looks like the minimum width of "postbody" plus the minimum width of "postprofile" is larger than the minimum width of the main template. Therefore the forum has to put postprofile beneath postbody when the frame gets too small.

Screenshot:

Either way, I don't have any experience with this forum software either, but I found some potentially useful information on the help forums:

Go to your AP > Diplay > Colors > CSS and find #wrap {

Change the width settings below it to change it for the whole forum.

Hey, PT. I was wondering if we can bring back the Anime Thread Directory/Index sticky from the old forum and use it here.

I will personally link all of the threads myself and will add new ones as new shows come out.

by **PT-Desu** Thu Apr 19, 2012 7:39 am

@Efrye: Thanks, that helps alot :)

@Destructo: Go for it, i will sticky it later.

by Destructo Thu Apr 19, 2012 7:41 am

Maybe on the weekend. lol

by Destructo Sun Apr 22, 2012 3:30 am

Alright, PT. I finished it.

Also, how will I be able to edit if it's stickied?

by **PT-Desu** Sun Apr 22, 2012 10:15 am

As long as i leave the thread open you should be able to edit it.

by Destructo Sun Apr 22, 2012 10:18 am

awesome, thanks.

by Efrye Tue Apr 24, 2012 8:09 pm

Thanks for fixing the low resolution problem by the way.
Looks much better now ~

Awesome, glad it's fixed now
was just waiting for you to say something :)

Is there any way to put lines between threads, or make each row a different color shade? When I want to go to the last page of a thread, sometimes I'll select the thread below what I want. With the thread info (pages, replies, views, last post) being kind of far from the thread title, you kind of have to follow your mouse across to make sure you're looking at the right row. All the rows just kind of blur together. If you can implement this, it would make navigating these forums a hundred times easier and make for a much better user experience.

If you can't implement this, it would be cool if you could at least put the page numbers directly next to the thread title
(like on GT - see last pic).

Examples:

Current Layout. Hard to differentiate rows since there is nothing separating them.

Line Separators. A simple yet effective way to differentiate rows.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Different Shades. Alternate colors between rows, making it extremely easy to differentiate rows.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

GT Layout (reference). Threads separated by lines, thread info (columns) separated by different color shades.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

by **PT-Desu** Thu Apr 26, 2012 6:14 pm

I think some sort of separators is possible, different shades not sure.

by **FullArmageddon** Fri Apr 27, 2012 1:03 pm

Sweet. It would be cool if you could implement something.

by **PT-Desu** Sat Apr 28, 2012 5:46 am

After a lot of brain frying i managed to get something that works.
I made a thread asking for help but no one could help >_>

Also, the code i had to use isn't very Internet Explorer friendly.
So to anyone using it, you won't see any change (probably).
