Questions/Comments about the new board format? Post 'em here.

[LurkerDave]

I am unable to log in using my old handle and when I attempted to reregister using that nic, I was notified that it was taken. Consequently, I was forced to create a new handle.

Time???

Anyone else here uncomfortable with board time at GMT? In the heat of reading and posts, sometimes forget to convert.

Can someone make the background of each post a shade of grey. The white is way too bright!
​

Agree on this one! And yeah, what's with the chintzy smilies?

You can change it in your User CP -> Edit Options

Set it to GMT -5 hrs

for now you can click on TERB Front page at the bottom right of the pages, and go to Sponsors

Why the W I D E Left margin?

Just saw a very recent change made where the left side margin, in pale yellow, was widened way TOO MUCH, 3 1/2 inches, on my monitor. It looked better the way it was before, IMHO.

OK, so where did you guys put the "Reply" button for a private message.

Also, the "request read receipt" should be an option to select if you want it, otherwise it should be off. The "Ok" or "cancel" popup is annoying.

 

[yychobbyist]

Is there anyway to have Member's Homepages open up in a separate window? I find it annoying to always hit the "back" button to get back to terb once I follow a link to someone's home page.

What is the best way to refresh or reload a page. If I hit 'new posts', well that's what I see. But does that update the 'views' on all the posts? I don't think so.

Do I have to hit 'new posts' and then reload/refresh on my browser or is there some easier way to do things that I'm just not seeing?

jwm

P.S. I'm using FireFox and not IE if that makes any difference.

 

[jwmorrice]

Bring in the mods...

*bump*

Nobody able to answer the question in my previous posting??

jwm

 

[Gentle Ben]

what about refresh in IE?

 

[jwmorrice]

what about refresh in IE?

Nope. That doesn't bring up the new postings either.

[HappyHookers]

The remember option is not working.

I didn't read the whole thread to find out why. My bad!

Can someone please advise if there is something I should do to fix it.

Thanks,
HH

BTW, I have the remember me button checked and cookies is enabled. I have no other probelm with any other board that uses the same software.
