kudyba Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 Just to let you all know, I'm planning another forum software upgrade. The only real new feature is an "avatar" option. We can also have the option for "custom" avatars, where users will be allowed to use their own image. Avatars, by the way, are little images that appear (optionally) below your "displayed name" on the left column. There will be several dozen to choose from and they will be selectable through the "my profile" link. The upgrade will also fix a little bug some of you are experiencing with private messages. It'll probably take me a couple of hours to complete to run some of the recommended update utilities that come with the software. I'm planning for Wed. AM and everything looks good so far...wish me luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

videoeditor1 Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 I suspect this is just an excuse for someone to take a (well deserved) vacation. We'll be so busy with the funny faces, we probably woudn't notice if a certain forum administrator mysteriously ended up somewhere in Italy for the next 3 weeks or so... :D identity withheld.

Wewus432 Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 Thanks Robbo: We appreciate you taking care of this place, our little playground. I would like to personally thank you for taking care of that problem I had when I couldn't log on for a day or two. That seriously cut in to my post count. Avatars are cool, for an example go here: http://forum.oc-forums.com/vb/showthread.php?s=d1d633fe3108cc61a10ae6df1cb7fd2a&threadid=71266 and then check out the rest of the forum, a lot of the people are using avatars. This is really a primo feature and one I think a lot of people are going to have fun with. Thanks again Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KHAN Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 Rob, will custom avatars be uploaded, or will we have to have them linked off of another site? So Many Drummers. So Little Time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kudyba Posted April 16, 2002 Author Share Posted April 16, 2002 I think there's like 90 "stock" images that come with it and I can set the option to allow users, e.g., Senior Members, to use avatars that are hosted else where... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfjunkie Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 avatars will be cool, but i bet some members are afraid of flying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miroslav Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 First off...fixin' bugs is a good thing...THANKS!! But more "upgrades"...? :bor: Pretty soon all the forums will look exactly the same,...could be someone "upstairs" feels that all these "features" will make a difference in forum membership numbers...? Hey...whatever it takes to keep the kids happy while they're here playing...I guess... :p miroslav - miroslavmusic.com "Just because it happened to you, it doesn't mean it's important."
