Interesting new forum look, I’m assuming the transfer has finally taken place?[SIZE=3]RIGHT?[/SIZE] Cool.
Sorry, lots of things to play with and figure out now. 
The really cool thing is that I’ve been a registered member since before I was born (1970). I’d like to thank my parents for having the foresight to take care of this for me, and for finally getting around to producing me two years later. 
Interesting look. It’ll take some getting used to, but looky at all the features!
It’s a little sterile, though. Hey, Mods! Can we get some potted plants or something to brighten the place up?
Oh yeah - will my posts from this morning come back? Mostly they weren’t much, but I thought the question of why MA should develop character merits saving.
That’s right baby, its the new stuff again.
Lets start our tests.
I’ll try to put an avatar, hold on.
BTW, the [img] code is off, i wonder if its a default thing or did the mods decide it this way?
Ass you can see, i put THE EFFECTIVE ONE instead of Senior Member.
Testing the smiles thing:
:o
For those that want to put an avatar up, remember its gottta be 50 x 50 pixels, try to keep it small so that 56kers dont have to wait years for the pages to load up.
Note that the private messages are off by default, turn them on in the User Control Panel, Edit Options.
Mods/Admins, i noticed that in the profile there is no longer “what is your martial art” and “how long have you trained”.
Could you put that up since I’m assuming that right now the forum is all default?
Now we have a Buddy list and a IGNORE LIST (cool Ralek will love this).
Now I was registered in Dec. of '69? Cool. I’ve supposedly “uploaded” an avatar, here’s hoping it works.
Gosh drat it! All the images I want to use for an avatar are too big, and I don’t have photoshop on this computer.
Ryu and other folks got away with putting big images in their sig lines back at the old forum; those were basically avatars; I wonder if that would work here?
Test
Nnnnnope.
****it, Max Bill’s “Tripartite Unity” would be a great avatar, too.
So far, so good
There went my morning ~ gottat figure out how this baby works now just like the rest of you.
Sorry about the back date problem. I had warned you that it might happen. It makes us all look older, eh?
Lots more functions here. Post on this thread your discoveries.
Now back to the adminstration…
Cool look
Anyone wanting to change an image size, I would recommend a “free” (they do have ads) program for which I’ve found limitless uses. It’s called ACDSee, I use the trial version 3.1. You can find it with a simple web search I’m fairly certain. Used it to shrink down the avatar I used to test (who knows, may keep it) my profile out. Great and useful program for any non-pro image stuff…and did I mention, it’s FREE !!
OK, now let’s hear what Gene has to say… :rolleyes:

I just got the style and time training restored to the member profiles, but you have to re-enter it yourself.
The IMG code is all messed up. Sorry. We’re working on it, but we may just have to live with it this way.
[SIZE=4]SO[/SIZE] , we can edit our posts now…even after someone else has posted…but it does mention that you edited AND the time you edited.
OK, just curious about that, thanks for participating Gene.
Yeah, Baby!
Now, How do I put an avatar?
This new forum rules!
Dude, I’ve been editing my posts since I got here. Glad to see you’re catching up with the times, Radhnoti.
I may be SLOW , but at least I’m stupid !
Uh…wait a minute…
Actually, I don’t think you could edit a post after it had been replied to previously Chang. Also there was a “time limit” for editing posts before. I’m certain of this as I’ve said things I wished I could edit on the other boards but waited too late.
Ok, thanks Gene.
Some more tests (testing graphic accents):
