OK, after popular public demand we have changed the member ranks yet again, to be honest we were never very happy with the army style ranks.

 

See if you can spot the not-so-subtle symbolism

Like the new site lots. I have found no problems. Got to say I liked being in the army but I guess a mountain is ok. Well done and thanks to everyone who has made this site possible

I am exploring the new site ....it looks great, :clap:

 

but I'll have to get used to it a bit to find it familiar :ph34r:

 

I changed to some sort of pike, is that a fish or a weapon?

Just a quick question and it's probably me. :wallbash:

We used to be able to click on someone's user name and it would tell us how many posts and then you could click on read all posts by that users.I actually found this feature helpful if I couldn't remember all the persons history.Is this feature no longer available or am I going mad :huh:

Are you using the correct tags:- [ img ] [ /img ] (without spaces?)

It should work as it works for me.

The only time it wouldn't,is if image posting is not enabled,or if the link had a space or some other break in it,can't think of any other reason at the moment.

I would just like to add my heartfelt thanks to everone involved in the forum upgrade, it had gone as smoothly as anyone could have expected.

 

One thing that has been bothering me is the fact that getting acquiring the new web space etc. must have meant you all putting your hands in your pockets.

 

While I am sure we are all united in agreeing that this site should never have a subscriotion, it seems unfaitr that you should have to do all the work and find all the cash.

 

There are a number of people here who would be more than happy to chip in to help with the costs involved. Please don't be embarassed to ask! Maybe you could set upa paypal account for people to make donations to if they would like to?

Hi Simon,

 

 

That is such a lovely gesture and I know you mean it sincerely.

 

Kris and I very happily covered the costs of the old forum,..but expansion and the need for stability forced our move into this web space. Lufty was quick off the mark to secure everything for us,..including meeting the costs, but getting him to divulge the figure so that I can contribute has been like getting support out of an LEA school!

 

We will seek external sponsorship, before we turn to the forum members though. :) We wont be asking for donations towards the upkeep of the batcave just yet!

 

Thanks a million though.

 

Kindest regards,

 

Elefan

I spent hours recreating the 'look & feel' of the forum for the batvent calendar to make it as authentic as possible, then you go and change it :crying:

 

I spend hours making sure that none of the posts overlap to make it as authentic as possible, then find that they do.

 

But you'll have to look at the Batcave page one to see Kirstie on top of Carol :o , cos when i tried to attach a screenshot it said: The requested file upload failed because suitable permissions have not been enabled on the 'uploads' directory. Please contact the board administrator and inform them of this error.

 

 

 

I don't make your life harder on purpose, promise :whistle:

Hi Lufty

my PM system seems to be losing sent messages somewhere - nothing has been recorded as being sent since the 17th and I know I sent loads yesterday

 

Zemanski

 

Unless you specify otherswise by ticking the 'keep a copy' box the PM isn't kept, but on the old system it was kept unless you specified otherwise.

 

I hope that makes sense!

Lufty,

 

I am aware that you have to save your message before sending it but I keep forgetting. :crying: Is there any way of changing it to the old method where every message is saved?

Hi

 

My son tried to register on the forum but did not get a reply is it because he used an MSN rather than e-mail account?

 

Hi stressed out mum

 

Do you know the name your son registered with please ?

 

Many thanks

Hi Lufty

 

Since I have been back posting on the Forum I do not receive replies notification :(:oops: even if I put it as a set up in the E-mail setting, anything I should do??? as I find it quite important when I subscribe to a topic.
