Well, his is that big because the avatars didn't scale down when everything was transfered. I think.
New Forum FeedBack?

I ran into a major problem. I couldn't log in! I kept trying this morning, but it kept telling me the information was invalid. I tried getting a new password in case I had just forggoten mine or forgotten to capitalize something, but It still wouldn't let me in. Finnally after a while I just broke and made a new account. Can anyone tell me What happened.
PS if anyone is wondering my old accound name was Luffie's Hat. See the huge change I had to make?

Luffies Hat, Read the FAQ. http://ap.animemedia.org/showthread.php?t=3023

I'm digging the new color sheme and overlook of the new forum. It honestly doesn't even seem all that different, it just looks a little prettier. These smilies do lick balls though. Gotta do something about that.
-
I sorta liked having postcounts. And It's nice to see everyone reappearing here!
-
The layout is very nice, the choice of blues are great and me loving blue layouts makes it even better. Miss the old smilies though :D
-
I don't much care for the font of the buttons. It looks "dirty." I don't understand what the significance of the characters to the buttons is, but they work okay.
The logo at the top seems far more whimsical than the old "Arlong with a hernia" image. I like it. It might be fun to change it every so often for events relevant to the fandom (ie characters' birthdays) or just for humourous purposes.
I think some tag-stripping needs to occur. There are old "snapbacks" on posts which are now sitting broken, and many signatures are just HTML blobs.
I like the new look, except that "show new posts" is hidden in a menu.
Overall, fairly impressive. I am awaiting the new smilites too.
-
Ah, vBulletin.. Nice to see you at Arlong Park… :)
Overall, I like the new look... And I don't need to say it, but vBulletin kicks ass.
-
i love the new layout. especialy the new buttons for reply, quick reply, edit, and topic. i cant wait to see it when its all done . only problem is i done like the smiles here as much :frown:
-
I just noticed.. Shouldn't the maximum avatar size be reduced? Look at this: http://ap.animemedia.org/member.php?u=1255

The new forums are flippin awsome! :D Thanks!!
UPRC, your sig made me laugh. ^o^

It took me a while to figure out how to see the images and avatars and siggys, but I figured it out (Me: duhrr I'm inteligent..) and I like the colors… The smilies need to be better though...
PS: Taboo, I like those smilies that you made! FUN!
-
I think it sucks to be honest. >_<
-
Well it's ok, but I did like the old layout better.
-
I enjoyed the curves and image of the old board, this seems to be much sharper, but it does have some convenient stuff.
-
nice to see this place up and running again.
it's still a bit rough around the edges but i'm confident you'll straighten that out.^^
-
meh, i liked the old smileys much better, it seems kinda small and cluttered, i definetely liked the old one better, but i dont mind readjusting. overall i give the new boards about a 6 out of 10. i feel like i am at the AS boards.
EDIT: OMG, we cant have sigs or avatars?!?!?!!? that lowers my score from a 6 to like a 4….sorry.

For the last time, everyone CAN have signatures and avatars. You just need to go to your options menu in your User CP and enable them.
We made a topic or two about adjusting to the new forum, read them.
I personally like the new forum. It's more complex, but there are so many new possibilities for things. Not to mention that the moderators get their own control panel now to actually ban members now. As for smilies, I hate them so I really don't give a damn how they look. The world will keep on spinning without them.
-
you mean it's easier for you to ban members now?
nooooo!!!!
;)
-
love the software, but not too sure on the colour scheme.
-
Personally, I really don't like the new layout =o. I liked being able to see people's avatars and Sigs right near their name. It'll take some getting used to though.
You need to turn it on under "Edit options" if you are saying no avatars or sigs are displayed.
I think some tag-stripping needs to occur. There are old "snapbacks" on posts which are now sitting broken, and many signatures are just HTML blobs.
I don't think VB has this feature and it would be very tedious to hard code such stripper or manually remove them. As for the HTML in signatures, we have explained it a lot of times already.
-
I personally prefer the old layout. I also mourn the loss of the image re-scaler. I had to chop off half of my avatar… :frown: (sniff)
-
Visually, this is taking some getting used to, but that's to be expected. And glory be, I can finally turn sigs and avatars off. Seriously, some of you are eyerapists.
-
Eyerapists??? What's that s'possed to mean!?
-
yes with sigs turned off this forum look better than ever.
-
It means some of your signitures were ridiculous, and I agree. I plan to enforce our signiture rules this time around. And pirate hunter, you don't have to chop off parts of your avatar, learn to resize your own avatar.
-
yes with sigs turned off this forum look better than ever.
Well… not really. Like Wander mention, cuz all of the screwed up ones but, there we're some really nice ones that i'm gonna miss :frown:
But meh, it's all good. I don't want to say "Oh the new forums suck!" here on the board cuz it's kinda bashing the admins work. So I'll take my words elsewhere
-
Well, I'm still getting used to the new forums, vB in particular. Everything seems good. The skins is a little too blue on my eyes, but I'm sure you guys are working on it.
The only thing I really have a bite with is signatures. I'll have to double-check if mine is under 100kb (if not, I'll go and optimize it for the web). That I have no problem with. I tried fixing my signature to get a 400 characters max. I'm guessing that's from the code and my gaming stats I listed underneath it….. With the quote and such (now that I think of it, I can reduce it a little bit). So, maybe a slightly larger signature size? Although most people have images, sometimes just quotes or words are nice as well. Or a combination of both.
The other thing is the image dimensions. I usually use a base height of 110 and a base width of 480 for my signatures. I'm wondering if it would be okay to keep my signature still?
Otherwise, thanks to everyone who donated (sadly, I'm not one of them -_-) and thanks to our hard-working, dedicated staff. Looks great. Keep up the good work!
EDIT: I reduced the size apparently, so my sig should work soon I guess. Although, I'd still like a slightly larger character limit for signatures (maybe 500). Not a necessity though, just a want.
-
You can say anything you want with these forums here, that's what this topic is for, but, give a why, it doesn't help us if you just say it sucks, tell us what you don't like about it so we can try and fix it.
-
Is that referring to my signature size? If so, I guess I didn't make it clear. It'd like for the max. character limit to be slightly larger so I can fit more stuff in there. I had an Image URL along with a quote and some stats in there and that took up some room. Though I have a sudden idea now….. (maybe use TinyURL for the image URL).
Anyways, if that wasn't clear, then I guess maybe I can ask you through PM instead of using up space here (I have a tendency, I realize, to not be clear about things). And if that wasn't directed towards me..... Oops. >> <<
-
You know what I miss is the Post count. Is their an way to get the post count back?
-
Post count is still here, it's just not under your username. Go to your public profile to find it.
-
oh well it was better when it was under our username the new forums is still ok.
-
And what does post count do for you?
Didly squat.
-
That's one of the things that makes this forum better than the last one. Post Counts only feed the ego of some that think high post counts make you important. Good job to whoever made that decision <3 !
-
yes, post counts are the true works of evil! they make you greedy. and ultimately lead to the destruction of worlds.
by the way, could the 'delete' -button make a glorious retun? even though i like it not being able to cancel my possible random acts of stupidity.
-
You can delete your posts. Edit your post and you will find a delete option.

oh, i didn't even notice that. thanks. too complicated, i guess i need big fancy buttons to show me right path.
-

the post count gave my life meaning…
-

There's probably a mod for that? I don't know.. Maybe you can suggest it to WZ though I don't think he'll install that.
-
Can we still do polls? I haven't seen that option around yet…
-
is there anyway for it to keep threads i havent read marked as not read? as soon a i go in somewere like the one piece anime forum if i leav and come back all the threads are now marked read wether i read them or not. mabey you cant change it but i liked the way the old board remembered exactly what threads i had read and which ones i hadnt.
-
Can we still do polls? I haven't seen that option around yet…
Yes. When posting a new topic there's "Additional Options" where you will find the "Post a poll" thing.
ronoazoro, I have no idea, actually.
-
did "gender" disappear? i no longer know what i am…

Yupp. Sorry. I will remind you from time to time, okay ? ^^
-
walks into girls bathroom doh!

There's probably such an option if the admins have enabled it ^^;;
@ronozoro: the system is probably buggy and might be fixed in a newer version.

ronozoro, it works perfectly fine for me, try clearing your cache and your cookies.
