There are some things I will be working on, in the next couple of days, in regards to the new converted board. As I complete them, I will cross them out. If there is something that you feel would help make the conversion more smooth, maybe something the other board looked like in a specific area, etc... let me know and I might add it to the list. Also, any questions on how to do something, comments on things you don't like, etc..., please feel free to ask/comment. Ok- so here goes: 4. There are ALOT of Board Modifications out there, some of which I will definitely be loading. So far these are on my to-do list: * The multi-quote button. This is used on most boards, to quote in ONE reply, to multiple posts in a thread. I'm sure most of you who travel the 'net are familiar with the concept. * Different forum markers. I'm not positive about this one. Will screw with it one late night and see. Basically, the Giants logo for the Giants forum, NFL logo for GNFL forum, etc... to break up the monotony. We'll see. 5. Repair the large space issues with IE. (Gene). Also fix the screwball alignment of the profile box and blog's layout issues, since I'll be fixing IE issues. (Note: Zeta doesn't seem to like IE unless you're using version 7 or higher. Hopefully, my repair job will work for all IE users.) Will add more as they're suggested, if applicable. :P Edited by BlueHeart, Oct 19 2008, 03:47 AM.

For wont of a better phrase is there anyway to tighten up the board? For example if you click onto the "Side Effects" thread in this particular forum there's a lot of space in between posts. It's really not that important at all, but it does bother me a bit for some reason........... |

Oh, and now that I think about it can you get one of those dropdown windows (is that what you call them?) so we can move from room to room without having to click back to the home page? Or is that already here and I'm missing it somewhere? |

1. I've noticed it too. Seems to be happening when the Quick Reply is used. It tosses some extra space in a post, for reasons unknown to me. If there's a way to fix it, I will, but, that may mean removing the QR and that would piss other people off... sigh. It also happens when a post/signature doesn't match the size of the profile section (to the left). It leaves blank space as filler. 2. I'm sure I can find the mod to add a forum jump menu. I'll add it to my to-do list. |

Done, Geno. While you're in a forum, the drop-down menu is on the bottom, right side. In a thread, it's right under the last post. You'll see "Jump To: Select a forum". Edited by BlueHeart, Oct 16 2008, 07:30 AM.

Have we always had quick reply? If not, then I think this is great. I use it on other forums quite frequently. The biggest issue I have so far is the layout/color scheme. Why orange?! Personally I liked the older standard layout which was blue/lightblue -- but if you're going to add in another color, shouldn't it be Giants-Red? I'd also like to see more of a divider between posts -- maybe I'm getting old, but it's hard to see where one post ends and another begins. Beyond that, I have had no problems logging in yet (as per your mass e-mail) -- using Firefox 3.0. |

Yep, we did. You just had to turn on the option in your profile. ![]() The orange wasn't my choice. If you check the original thread regarding the board conversion, you'll see my biggest gripe was "all the goddamn orange".. ![]() I've gotten rid of the majority of it (and there was ALOT), but, I haven't gotten around to making new dividers to upload an install in place of the orange ones. Should add that to my list. Thanks for reminding me. I'm sure I could increase the pt size of the post borders or, at the least, I could change them to black to add a little more definition. I'll add to the list and see. |

Done. I made the post divider dark blue. Makes it alot easier to read (excellent suggestion NYG8092). What do you guys think? |

Hell yes! Thank you. That looks 100% better. The orange isn't something I look at and think it's hideous, in fact, I like the color orange a lot in general. It's just, when I come here and see orange, "New York Giants" isn't the first thing that comes to mind.

That's my issue with it, as well. I like orange, but, it has no business here. Looks like a friggin' Broncos site. |

Doesn't show on my screen at all. Go figure. And the dark blue line dividing posts was a great idea. A+ for that one! |

I swear to God in High Heaven that it isn't there on my screen! No shit! It really isn't there. On my screen I have the solid blue line under your post and immediately after is the ad for Full Sail University. |

Oh c'mon you know I'm technically homosexual. What's a browser and how do I find out which one I'm using? And if it makes any sort of difference I haven't been able to receive E-Mail notifications to threads I'm subscribed to or new PM's I've received for quite awhile now. Hell, you know how I don't pay attention. Do you know how many times I've had PM's sitting there in my in box for more than a few weeks before I noticed them?
