FTO AUSTRALIA

This is great! love the new look forum Job well done.

This new site is looking great Ben
Great job Mate.

Done lots of prodding around, apart from some missing avatars, it's all hunky dory.

Awesome work

New gallery is up

http://www.ftoaustralia.com/gallery/index.php

Not yet transferred anything into it, just working on a script that will bulk dump everything in from the old gallery.

Don't sign up a new account & start putting things in yet, the script will transfer your account and pictures over

That will be because I have re-disabled the feature for users to link to an offsite avatar.
I want all users to have their avatars stored locally on this server, so everytime you view a thread, we aren't waiting for 15 other servers to load up offsite avatar images.

Thats a great idea as I've noticed the avatars (and sigs) seem to be the last few things to load, while all the banners and menu bars had already loaded up.

Edit: wanted to ask if this message vvv is really necessary? It pops up after you post something and always seemed pointless to me. Anyway to bypass it and maybe go straight to what you just posted?

tits indeed!

Garage!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

how would one get to the garage once its up? from other clubs (MCA) its got a line of links below the banner at the top of the page. would it be something like that?

Yeah, you'll see a link up next to private messages.

Nice upgrade!!

PM box is huge now


btw, pms seemed to be in the outbox now, after I clicked send.
They are not being sent yet?

it means the receiver has not opened them yet

What do you think about the topic icons? (the little folder, folder with star, folder with plus or folder with star and plus)

The star sybmol means 'popular topic'.... I don't like it. I want to remove it, we've never had a reason to mark topics 'popular' or not...

The plus symbol means 'I've posted in this thread'.... that feature I quite like. I'd like to keep that one.

I was wondering what they all meant.

Yeah i agree with your sentiments. Is it possible to have a key as to what the mean at the bottom or something?
