Why did you change it? Old saying: If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

**Shaggy** · 05-18-2005, 11:42 AM

It was, could get it o work right, and I like vb forums better, less security risks and easier to us.

Do you not like the move David? This will not be the normal skin. I will change this to.

DavidDoyle · 05-18-2005, 11:47 AM

Why is there a Cichlid section under FW and then another set of Cichlid forums as well?

**Shaggy** · 05-18-2005, 11:52 AM

Well, I'm still getting the bugs out from the import. Everything will will be fixed..

**Damon** · 05-18-2005, 02:06 PM

I like Vb boards. APC changed within the last year for the same reasons. Right after all the PHP boards got hacked.

**Shaggy** · 05-18-2005, 04:23 PM

That was one of the reason I switched. PHPBB boards are hacked inot very easily as you all witnessed bfore..

**Osiris** · 05-18-2005, 04:25 PM

some peeps just not patient lol, shoulda seen the crash of "aquabid" think people are still in professional help, lol

I like the new format much better. The old one was too wide for my computer and I always had to slide back and forth.

**Osiris** · 05-18-2005, 04:30 PM

someone told peeps how to fix that z man but i can't remember, how to fix that, something on how windows font or something..

fishfreaks · 05-18-2005, 07:40 PM

i for one am all for it, good work shaggy!

**TheOldSalt** · 05-18-2005, 07:55 PM

Hmmm... I'm not sure yet just what I think. It looks okay, and it certainly runs faster on my machine when changing pages. It doesn't tell us how many new posts or topics there are in a thread, so now we have to click on them to see, but since it's so much faster that might work out okay. I see the quick reply feature still works..that's very good.

I guess my only disappointment is the new selection of forums. After all that stuff we talked about, we only got some cichlid stuff? I guess you're still working on it, though, so I'll sit and see what happens.

ijedic · 05-18-2005, 09:43 PM

Hi Bryan, It's a lot faster this new way! Looks great on my dial up! Have a great week, Shannon

I didn't make up that forum. On the importing of the forum from phpbb to vbulletin, it couldn't do subforums. So it just created a full forum. The cichlid forum was originally the subforum of the cichlid forum in the freshwater section. I didn't see it until you told me about it. I moved I all back to its original spot.

Now about the new post, there is a link on top in the navi section where it says "New Posts". Clicking on that link will take to you a page that will show you all the new threads and posts that you missed out on.

I like I said before, this is not going to be the normal look. Its just the default look, I am going to have a custom look/skin made for this site, and it will not look like any other forum sites out there.

This forum software is the best out there IMHO. Its great with securtiy, look and feel. You all will not be disappointed. SERIOUSLY!!

Is it possible to allow larger attachmnets?

**Shaggy** · 05-19-2005, 12:59 AM

yep...I need to change that. I'm doing that as we speak!

**Shaggy** · 05-19-2005, 01:02 AM

I made it where you can have a 160x160 avatar with the file size of 80kb. Have at it..

mrmoby · 05-19-2005, 01:02 AM

cool...thank you

mrmoby · 05-19-2005, 01:38 AM

Actually, I was wondering about the file size for attaching pics. I tired but it tells me the file cutoff is 39kb.....
