Yeah - way more feature than before, even if the pciture sigs aren't to everyones' liking - but I think people will gte used to it eventually, and new players joining the game won't know any other forum style.

No.

The search is **** and as far as I know there's no "show all posts" function for threads, which makes quick read-through a hassle.

Edit: Oh yeah, I forgot, now the forum is full of CoH Eu players.

GG is the only one to go from 0 to forum cartel in three, count them, three months, on the EU boards last year, while simultaneously hitting 2K-ish posts over on Cryptics boards, lol.


Those other forums miss you, surely. =T






Good finds Mace. Those will make a great sig.

My husband is my hero!

Okay I have the "quick reply" feature turned on and some of the options are nice but for those of you who were probably hating it for the reason I did, go to the upper left hand corner just below all of the options for "user cp" or "new posts"...okay...see where it has the string of places you had to go through to get here? Click on English!!!!

It may still be a little icky but I prefer looking for my favorite forums in that format rather than the other!!!

I don't go to other forums specifically because I hate the search by line until you are dizzy & your vision is blurred feel...I have to stare at a work puter all day I don't want to go on the internet to visit boards that make my eyes cross!!!

Anyway, try it, if your problem was the same as mine, you will be much happier, yay!

I'd like one - but I'm not sure what to put in it yet - I might even wait until I make some 3D art pictures first.

While I don't mind signature pictures... there needs to be a relatively tight limit. Images that are like, 300-400px tall just get irritating




Thank you, Champion.

I expect them to put a limitation on it after it gets abused. Most forums 200px is the max height and that's the very lenient ones.

I'd settle for getting my avatar to look acceptable on these forums.

I've noticed that several people's siggy pics are blurry as well. No idea what causes it.


Loose --> not tight.
Lose --> Did not win, misplace, cannot find, subtract.
One extra 'o' makes a big difference.

I'm used to them. I've been a member of many a forum, and I don't really mind them to be honest. Like yours, it's a reasonable height. It's what? 120? 150 pixels? I think that 150 would be a good cap. Anything beyond that gets far too distracting.




Thank you, Champion.

Np, all I did was add some transparency around it so it wouldn't stretch, takes 5 seconds with the right software.

Why's it not perfect? I can probably fix it

CSS knowledge + firefox + stylish = best option

Or there is a post in general <i think> with 2 premade style sheets

Yeah, I'm planning on doing something with that eventually, just been lazy.

I didn't even know there were different themes... but just went to the redside with mine.

I'm still kinda iffy, because I'm like the little old lady who doesn't want to change even if it means I get run over by it. However, as I've been reforging all my links and bookmarking things that are not linked from forums anymore (like server status and the main CoH website), it grows on me a little. Like lichen.
