Looks good.

Jessifer 2004-01-18 06:23 PM

Actually, I rather like the new version. The only problem I have are the lack of custom titles. :( But I'll live. ;)

Vollstrecker 2004-01-19 02:30 AM

I like where the title is on that. Good idea.

Chruser 2004-01-19 09:41 AM

Actually, just hover your mouse pointer over the avatar. It's got a tooltip containing your title to save space in the post itself. It's compressed to fit more information into one page, which is better than having all posts extended to read the user titles in a separate cell. Sure, it's fun to read them, but you still can by consuming 0.003 calories by moving your mouse a few pixels to the avatar. Load times are lower now, and once again, we save display space.

Hmm, your Title shows the "<"s before and after, not enabled you to bold titles. Enable that!!

I like how you can edit someone and give a reason as to why now. I noticed it on a post from Penny_Bagz, and that was really cool.

I don't like how all the User Names, Threads, Forum Names, and everything is underlined, and I don't like non-bold and italicized Member names for Staff...

Um, it does, on non-Synthesis styles.

Perhaps change the "reply" button to say quote?

Except then there'd be no reply button.

I kind of miss the "Get new posts" thing in the top left.

Exactly and EXACTLY

Are you blind? When I look to the top left of ANY of the styles, I see a link to get new posts.

Can we get something to flash when we have a new PM on Ocean? I don't know if it does on anything, but all I really care about is Ocean :)

We mean the little nublet with "Wiew New Posts" I know ther is a new one because I use it... and it actually seems that the menu items auto arrange themselves in order of most used to least used... I could have sworn the New Posts link was the fifth one until about 20 minutes ago.

WetWired 2004-01-19 04:52 PM

It was changed about 5 hours ago, actually, in response to Grav and others' complaint. My original work on Synthesis included the classic view new posts and search features (with the spelling corrected, BTW), however, it all had to be scrapped when the final templates finally arrived with vB3RC1, and when I looked at what was new, I decided that there was no great advantage to putting them in vB3, since the new nav already had a view new posts and a quick search.

RoboticSilence 2004-01-19 04:53 PM

Now what about fixing the Quick Reply to not be so crappy?

I'll look into it, but you know, there's an option to display a message box when there is a new private message, and I find it more effective than the flashing thing ever was.

RoboticSilence 2004-01-19 04:56 PM

My only issue with the PM system poup is that when the javascript message pops up and asks me if I want to open a new window, I select yes and it doesn't open because of my popup blocker. There is another way to open a new window that doesn't get blocked (Some popup I get at AIM.com is the only one I've ever had.)

LiveWire 2004-01-19 04:59 PM

How about the: There have been XX New Post And XX New threads Snice your last vist. I'm sure everyone loved that.

WetWired 2004-01-19 05:06 PM

Hmm. Maybe you should look at the settings. Maybe there's a setting to only block cross-domain popups (so a popup to http://zelaron.com/popup.html from http://zelaron.com/forums would be allowed but a popup to http://wwuzone.com/popup.html from http://zelaron.com/forums would not be).

I did say that I'd look into this, though it'll have to wait untill after most of the fires are out.

That has been pointed out, and is on my list of non-urgent changes.

Kool, One more thing i noticed. I know there is a poll for this, but did you turn the member pics off antionally?

i get this:

LiveWire, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.
Not sure if you knew so i thought i would ask here other then creating a new thread.
