Small problems
What are the things you would like changed over the next few days?

Can anyone use this link. . . . .
http://www.mechmate.com/forums/showp...71&postcount=1 . . . . . . if they are not logged on? And, if you are logged on, can you download the files from there? |
Gerald: Link works when not registered-Can only download if registered. Hope you enjoyed your trip to Atlanta. I bet you're glad to be back home.

Who else sees this thread "upside down"? The latest post should be at the bottom?

Gerald:
I was able to download the PDF files to my desktop just fine, and also was able by selecting the correct option to open the gas strut mounting PDF file while I was online here and browse through it just fine. I find that the last post being placed at the top of the forum a little confusing,but I am sure I can adapt eventually. One thing I am liking already, is the button "Post Reply" allows you to go directly to the main reply window, without scrolling all the way to the bottom. Neat!:D |
Found out why I saw the last post on top - "Tester" had been playing with too many buttons!
In the User CP (control panel) > Edit Options, I had changed the "display order" |
Dave, Atlanta was one of those business trips where you were so busy you have a hard time remembering what the weather was like. (Funny how family always thinks a trip abroad is a "jolly"). Picked up a throat infection from face-to-face talking at the expo and being Delta's confined guest for the 18-hour flight either way.

Picture upload test

I prefer the in-line big pictures and I will figure out how to get that again. The thumbnail style will come when too many people are viewing big pictures and my server company sends me a bill!

link does not work
The link in post #2 does not work for me (I am logged in). I don't mind the thumbnails at all, as soon as I click them I get a nice large picture. Personally I like the new post at the top, that way I don't have to scroll down.
|
That link stopped working for me as well, so I played it safe and put...
http://www.mechmate.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=20 ....on the www.mechmate.com page for "Downloads" But maybe the link to the thread....... http://www.mechmate.com/forums/showthread.php?t=327 .....will be better for "Downloads" (look at the last bit: forum=20, thread=327) |
Gerald, don't know if this is a problem or you just don't want to use the option but the link to members list says I don't have permision to veiw it, same with clicking on a user name it will not bring up there profile. no worries on either but I think to send PM's you have to be able to go to members profile.

I do want PM's to work, but I don't want members lists to show. Thanks David, I'll look into it. (Also, vB allows both PM's and e-mail between the members - I am trying to figure which is the better one (once I have figured out what the difference is!))

Gerald: Is there a way for the threads to reflect that I have opened them to read them besides manually hitting the "mark threads as read" button? I am navigating through the front page rather than "new posts".

Hi Dave
Right at the bottom of the front page, is an explanation of the icons: http://www.mechmate.com/forums/image.../forum_new.gif (new posts) ,and http://www.mechmate.com/forums/image.../forum_old.gif (already read) I reckon there isn't enough contrast between them, maybe I should replace the top one with: Attachment 47 (from the old board) Any objections from anyone? Any other suggestions? Then, once you are in the clicked forum, the bold threads near the top are the unread ones. |
