I can't post for the others, but at first I found the filename under the pictures annoying and the view count interesting. Now I found both equally annoying.

Any possibility that we might do away with both in the future? :thumbdown:

I do like the scrolling (and click to enlarge/reduce) feature for the oversized pictures! :clap:


Goodbye file names and views. We'll miss you... :hmm: Okay, well we probably won't. But if anyone does, let me know!

Just to note if you click on any picture/attachment with scroll bars, they'll disappear and it will expand. You can also click on it again to put it back.

Just received an email from one of my customers, goes by beemoz, and he says...

"...(Am currently having some trouble with my Stampwants e-mail.)

This customer has well over 3k in feedback, so its not like he's a newbie and doesn't know his way around. I hope he has reported his problem. If not, see what you can do about this for him, Mark. Thanks ~ Dianne

The old version of the Forum permitted uploading of larger images and would resize them automatically. I tried uploading one and it rejected it due to the size. Can we get that functionality back?

Dirt,

When you are typing your post, if you scroll lower (below the Save/Preview/Submit) buttons, you will see an Options and Upload attachment tabs. Choose the later, and then go through the process of Browse, Add the File...

Note that there is sort of an extra step afterwards. You have to decide if you want to add the picture "inline" or as an attachment. So after you "Add the File", if you want to add it inline, you will need to select the proper spot in your post, then look for that button and insert the picture.

:hmm: Has anyone figured out how to mark posts as "read" without actually clicking on them? There may be some threads I'm not following, and want to remove the clutter from my "new posts" list.

There is probably an easier way, but it looks like I have to read all the posts I want to read first, and THEN afterwards click on the "Mark all posts read" option. Currently, I do not see a way to just click on something to mark a specific thread as read as I go through the list.

It may have to do with the search function we are using?

You are just itching to find a way to skip my ramblings, aren't you? :P
