So far so good, I quite like it. Don't like the smileys much though they look a bit buggy. See if you can get the same ones that yahoo have pls ebay.

 

Hi tcm 🙂

I don't see the use in that "success" message either!

I do not see where we have the ability to center pictures. Woman Sad  I do not like the new emoticons either.

This Success thing is dumb.  Our post should just show up with the other posts before it.

We also cannot use standard HTML emoticons.

Okay, I had to make my siggie smaller to show the text.  Let's see if it worked.

Oh bliss, one can  "ignore" the silly, repeated, lengthy, boring signatures that are often more interesting than the post content!

Doesn't the "Board Rule" apply over here that images used in sigs must be no bigger than 50 pixels by 220 pixels and must be static?

 

Just testing:-

Re: what is everyones opinion of this new format? I think it is awful

The UK boards are going to be down next week and then we'll be using the same platform as you folks so we'll have a few things to get used to.

 

At present, we have to jump through hoops to post pics, animated gifs and our own saved smilies so we don't have to use the awful ones we've been "given".

 

Just testing a few:-

It's life Jim, but not as WE know it.

Yes, cee-dee, same rules... 50x220 pixels size-limit...

Must be static, except in board communities where they're accepted and welcomed...

 

As I've read HERE:

BTW,

The Ziggys are not my "siggy" plain.gif

Re: what is everyones opinion of this new format? I think it is awful

Hi, yes, I knew they weren't a sig but I've seen others which are oversize and just wondered.

 

I'm also wondering what size pics can be posted on the new platform. I'll try one:-

"800 pixels wide" appears to be the unoffical limit for in-post picts...

(Might actully be somewhat higher, like 1000px to 1200px wide).

 

BTW, cool photo...

                            cool.gif

 

 

Now I'll try one... 1234px wide TEST:

(Used resize "handles" to fit pict to Reply form window)
