    New forum styles, skins, colors

    Hi everyone :)

    It's been mentioned a couple of times and I've received some pms about it so I thought I should post about it.

    None of our old styles/skins were able to be converted from the old board due to the way the developers coded this version (it's almost a ground up re-coding). So none of the style variables stayed the same.

    I can make my own styles/skins and will over time attempt to make some that look good For the time being though, we only get the one style/skin to look at
    Question: Why can't I post links or pictures?
    Question: Why can't I have a signature, avatar, or profile picture?
    Question: What's wrong with my account?

    Answer: You are in the "registered users" user group. This group is very limited in what it can do. This will annoy spammers to no end Just keep posting once you have been registered for 30 days and have made 11 posts your account will be "unlocked".

    It's really easy to put someone on ignore and it's strongly recommended that you do so with people who's posts you don't like.

    Step 1 - log in
    Step 2 - click on the "settings" link
    Step 3 - click on the "edit ignore list" link on the left side of the screen
    Step 4 - type (or paste if you copied and pasted it) the username of the person you want to ignore
    Step 5 - click the "ok" button on the right of the screen

    Easy peasy and will lower your blood pressure. One important note though, this won't hide quoted posts. It's an oversight on the developers part and it's not an easy thing to "fix." So if someone quotes someone you have ignored, you'll see the quote.

    Alternatively when you click on a person's name and view their profile page, underneath their avatar, there is a option that says, "Ignore this person". Click that link and then click the yes button.

    Getting used to using it. Was a bit shocking at first LOL. I'm getting there. Thank you for all the work you do. Would like something sunny and happy when you can get to it.

      That explains a lot why there is only one style/skin. Anyway, looking forward for an upgrade =)
