Holy Shit!!!!

[Lilith]

It sure is pretty. But I have no idea how it works....I hope like this*crosses fingers*

[dreamgurl]

is this the new layout for the board?

[Cheyanne]

Yes, very pretty.. lol you can change it from the bluish/purple to pink if ya want to...

It is kinda like Christmas! Look at all the buttons!! Do I dare click on that one???? LMAO

It has MSN, ICQ... wow! Going to have to explore!

[darogle]

I fear change. :eek:

[dreamgurl]

how do i change my avatar now?


I'm scared :eek:

[imaginewithme]

THIS IS TOOO WIERD!!! I FEEL EVEN MORE LOST NOW DAMNIT :eek:

[Lilith]

I am trying to get that figured out for everyone. Gonna take me a little while to get it sorted but I will figure it out.

[OzKristin]

hehe, it is real nice and I also like the smilies :sex: :cool:

[PantyFanatic]

<----- *evaluates change THOURGHTLY!* :rolleyes:


I suppose you are the type that likes to rearrange the furniture, even when you have the best layout? :(


LOL

I'm familiar with the “close tag” levers. ----------------->
They are a definite improvement. :)




I’ll give you a report card in a while. ;) I have to look for a rug to put over that hole by the door before Steph gets here. :D

[Cheyanne]

how do i change my avatar now?


I'm scared :eek:

At the top of the page on the right in the blue bar under your welcome there is a link to quick links...click on the down arrow and you will see Edit Avatar option. Click on that and it will take you to the page where you can change your Av... it is really easy. PHP based web pages will pretty much walk you though what you need to do. Editing your sig is really neat too, you can pick the color you want and the font without knowing the code of size for it!!!

So far I am liking this!

[flutelady]

Wow, when a change gets made, it gets made in a big way! It'll take some getting used to, but they say that change is good.

[Cobalt]

Go to User CP, then click on edit avitar, about the same as the old way.

[sodaklostsoul]

I am trying to get that figured out for everyone. Gonna take me a little while to get it sorted but I will figure it out.
Thank You Lilith. Will wait patiently.

I have lots of stuff not showing up, now I'm really lost.

[gekkogecko]

There's a couple of aspects of the new look that I don't lilke.
One, the lack of a "new posts since you last logged in" on the main page. had to hunting for it, did finally find it. Be good to have that back.

Two, the lack of a shout box. didn't use it often, but did like it when I did.

Other than that, the layout of the new look is easier on the eyes than the old layout, so that's a plus.

[WildIrish]

Someone hold my hand please.

[Lilith]

Most things will work exactly the same as before. The smilies need some work but please let me know when you have trouble and we can figure it out together.

[Irish]

I'm really confused now,but that's nothing new.Like anything else,I'll,eventually,figure things out! Irish

[englishrose]

I like it! :)

[PantyFanatic]

5 Good

When you can't make up your mind, 2 & 4. ;)

I'll look for the semicolon store room and let you know Irish ;)

[Steph]

<----- *evaluates change THOURGHTLY!* :rolleyes:

I’ll give you a report card in a while. ;) I have to look for a rung to put over that hole by the door before Steph gets here. :D

:moon:

That's what you'll see if you uncover the hole!

I have a PM that I don't know how to read yet! :D

[PantyFanatic]

how do i change my avatar now?


I'm scared :eek:
You have to e-mail all your nude pics to me now, and I'll pick one for your avatar. :p







;)

[Sugarsprinkles]

I really, really like the new format. I'm semi-familiar with this set up as it's the same as another forum I visit. It does take a little getting used to, but on the whole, it's very nice. Thank you to whoever arranged for the changes. :)

[Lilith]

Currently there is a problem with custom avs...I will get it fixed as soon as I can.

[dreamgurl]

You have to e-mail all your nude pics to me now, and I'll pick one for your avatar. :p







;)


Well i did have some special avatars set up just for you but i'm having a blonde moment and can't figure it out. and as for the nude pics :rolleyes: :moon:

and thank you Lilith for saying that i thought it was just me being silly......as always.

[PantyFanatic]

I don't suppose I could talk to the driver of the truck that's moving the Smut Games? :rolleyes:


OH SHIT!:( You brought the fish too --->

[Cheyanne]

LOL @ PF!!

Just noticed that there isn't a link to get into chat :eek: ...will that be added?

[osuche]

<---- Was not ready for change today. Please make it stop. :(

[Sugarsprinkles]

I was wondering, what do the "+"s mean after members names when we check "Who's Online?"

[Cheyanne]

I believe it means that they are on your buddy list SS.. :D

[PantyFanatic]

Unless I haven’t found it yet?, ……. I very much miss the Recent Posts category. :mad:
1


Same thing for the Profile and PM buttons in each post. :(
2



(also playing with the levers ;) )

[Lilith]

top right in the quick links I think it's New Posts

[Sugarsprinkles]

PF, for new posts go to the top of the page and along the blue bar it says "New Posts", click on it it takes you to the new posts. For profiles, just click on the poster's Av....there is a place along the right side of the profile page to click on to send a PM.


Chey, thanks for the info on the +'s! :D

[Cheyanne]

When you click on the name of the poster a drop down box appears. There you can select to PM, view profile and other things.

[Lilith]

PF click on my name by my avatar and see all of the choices of things you can do to me...including PM

[Boulevard37]

When you click on the name of the poster a drop down box appears. There you can select to PM, view profile and other things.


this does not appear for me(i am on a mac does that make a diff?)

[PantyFanatic]

You have to click the posters nick for a dropdown with all and more. :)

(and WITHOUT that stupid [LOVE] button) thank you ;)

[wyndhy]

Holy Shit!!!

uh...i'll second that. once again lilith gets right to the heart of the matter. :)

[PantyFanatic]

PF click on my name by my avatar and see all of the choices of things you can do to me...including PM
I found it, but now I'm thinking of a whole list of additions. :p


:D

[Pita]

:love: Love the new board. Just got to figure out a few things.

[campingboy]

Well someone has been busy. It looks good. I like the design. It seems faster too. Thank-you for updating this forum.

[BIBI]

:eek: Does this smiley remind anyone else here of Gonzo from the muppets....

Yes..... well, yes it does!!! LMAO

[scotzoidman]

Jeez, ya gotta warn somebody before ya make a change like this! I thought we were under attack again when it didn't come up at first...& then I can't find anything where it's supposed to be...same way I feel when someone cleans up my desk :eek: now that the shock is wearing off, I have to admit it's much easier to read, & I don't think anyone will miss the stupid fuckin' "love" button...
What do ya wanna bet Irish's VCR still flashes "12:00" all the time? :rolleyes:

[dreamgurl]

YAAAYYY the avatars work again. thank you whoever fixed it you are the greatest. :jump:

[LixyChick]

I thought I was in the wrong building at first because this morning it was the old way and now...WOW!

I'm sure I'll like it!

Gonna go help PF look for the the semi-colon store for Irish. I bet they'll have more exclaimation points in there for me!!!!

[Lilith]

Avatars and custom user titles are both back. Also we have avatars AND profile pics. So have fun picking out what you want to use.

[scotzoidman]

Ok, now is there a shortcut to chat, or am I just missing it?

[neckbyter]

Damn, and I hadn't figured out the last board yet....
Must admit it is pretty, but do miss the shout board.

[Lilith]

I am working on geting chat back....

I do not miss the shout box or the love button:p

[scotzoidman]

I am working on geting chat back....

I do not miss the shout box or the love button:p TY Lil, I know this is a hard time to deal with this...

[dreamgurl]

anyone else notice you can preview the thread's first post by moving your pointer over the title???

*goes off to find more goodies*

[Lilith]

TY scotz...

[PantyFanatic]

.....I do not miss the shout box .....:p
*BOOOOOooo*We need the shout box. So much easier to keep you awake from there ;)

[LixyChick]

:eek: Does this smiley remind anyone else here of Gonzo from the muppets....

:rolleyes:
Either Gonzo or PF!

*ducks and runs outta the thread!*

[LixyChick]

Oops! Sorry Steph! That was your line! I'll delete that!

*hits every button in the new joint and takes a spin around the world*

Well...that was fun! Maybe Steph will just appreciate that I can read her mind now!

JK...JK...I've been in crazier places than this (not that I cheat on you all or anything *innocent look as I bat my eyelashes*)

And BTW Lilith...have I mentioned that I love you for all you do here...oh hell...I just love the stuffins outta you for everthing you are! TY for the pretty new digs! :)

[Lilith]

Check Site Announcements for a temporary chat link.

[musketeer]

It looks very nice - I'll just have to play with until I
1, break it :eek: or
2, get it working LOL

[TinTennessee]

I may be a little less confused than I was 5 minutes ago..lol

[sodaklostsoul]

It kind of grows on ya. It gets easier to use after awhile. Thank You Lilith for answering all of our questions.



:eek: Reminds me of a Fly with his butt in a mouse trap

[Irish]

Scotz---My VCR doesn't flash 12.00.My wife changed it! Irish

[cbass1976]

this is a great change

[MilkToast]

good to see we have moved to the newer version of the VBulleting SW. This one is more secure from script attacks (it's why a few of the other boards I frequent moved over.... nasty people posting there, good thing we also do not have those here).

I would like to see the quick reply box reinstated if that is possible... I know that it exists under this version :)

thanks!

[PantyFanatic]

.....I would like to see the quick reply box reinstated if that is possible... I know that it exists under this version :)

thanks!
SEE! SEE!:jump:

I knew it was here some place.:D

You can't hid it from us Lilith............ Not if you let Sharni bring those game along.:mad:

[flutelady]

But.... what's a "shout box"??? :confused:

[MilkToast]

oh yeah... and another request (as if Lilith was not already running around like a chicked with her head cut off)... can we get the personal info back on the left side? I find that when I am reading threads it flows more smoothly when it is configured that way. I am pretty sure that is also an option on this version.

thanks!!!!
-Toast

[lakritze]

into the Pixie Twilight Zone? When did this change? Where is the LOVE button? Where is Lilith's avitar? What happened to all of the pictures of women,men and couples? WWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!! I want my mommy.

[Sharni]

Well fuck me!! *LOL*

[Pita]

Not now Sharni :)


As long as we are all giving our wish list. Here is mine; Why do I have to sign in everytime I come to the board? I check that little box and everything.


I do go to another board just like this one and we do have the quick reply box and can have everything on the left. I don't like across the top either.

[PantyFanatic]

:)Just wondering what the “+” mark behind some of the Currently Active Users nicks listed?

And that shout box actually would be a handy thing for quick questions and answers while we are assimilating.:rolleyes:

We're going to like those Close All Tags buttons.............. when they get them working. ;)

[maddy]

up a few posts was the + question and answer... if I recall it means the person is in your buddy list.

Thought I'd save you the time for scrolling.

Nice change, now I'm forced to like this arrangement as all forums I hop in have this format.

[maddy]

But now I have a question! What are the colored dots to the right of the usernames? For example mine is red, but PF's is green, and others are a bluish-purple color.

[Irish]

Not now Sharni :)

I don't go to any other boards,but I would also like to know about the constant signing in thing,because before,I guess,that I was automatically
signed in,because I was a member?No problem,but I was wondering! Irish

Nana nan nana :D

[scotzoidman]

Scotz---My VCR doesn't flash 12.00.My wife changed it! Irish
Actually, I expected that you would fixed the problem the way my mother did - she put black tape over it so she couldn't see it flashing...

[flutelady]

Clearly I have to ask more forcefully


WHAT IS A SHOUT BOX??? Someone, anyone, please respond...?

[Sharni]

The shout box used to be on the front page of the forums....it was a mini chat thingy...so ppl could say g'day

[scotzoidman]

and evidently, there's no great outcry at the shout box being AWOL, so it doesn't seem to be missed...

[LixyChick]

I sorta miss it! It was easier to say hi than to get/send a PM to someone I'd notice online. Course, I kept forgetting to "float" the damn thing most of the time!

OK...so far, so good. I found the chat link in "Site Announcements" and am glad to see it works for me. I can't stay any longer this morning...but I'll try my best to get back here tonight!

[thereIam]

Hmmm. New carpet. Fancy drapes. Cool, nice furniture. Lilith, I really like what you've done with the place! :D

[PantyFanatic]

Hmmm. New carpet. Fancy drapes. Cool, nice furniture. Lilith, I really like what you've done with the place! :D
Yeah Lil. We even like where you hid some to the doors and windows. :rolleyes:

[Sugarsprinkles]

I'm loving all the new bells and whistles, and not complaining in the least, unlike some people ^^^^^:D:D.
But I have one teeny problem.....in the upper right corner where it has "Welcome Sugarsprinkles" and tells about my PMs......it keeps telling me I have an unread message and I don't. Is there a way to clear this up? Thanks in advance.

[Lilith]

Not that I know of with out clearing all your messages.

[Sugarsprinkles]

Bummer!! But thanks for the reply.



P.S. I just cleared out this weeks messages and it did the trick! YAYYYY!!!

[dreamgurl]

I think today has helped me get over missing the shot box......i do like the remodle though, easier for me to use now anyway. :jester:

[Steph]

Is there no way to open pics in a new window now?

When you get a notification about a new post to a thread, I like how you can see the message in your email.

[Lilith]

I'll check steph...about the pics.

[PantyFanatic]

Do we have an Evil Filter on this new system?.................... Just in case Steph attemps to post pics. :cool:

[BIBI]

Do we have an Evil Filter on this new system?.................... Just in case Steph attemps to post pics. :cool:

You need to be spanked PF!!! ;)

[Steph]

I'm not going near that smart ass!

Is everyone clicking 'quick reply' & then finding themselves subscribed to all threads they've posted in? Is there something I'm missing?

[Sharni]

Is there no way to open pics in a new window now?
Yep...ya gotta right click on the pic and choose open in new window

[kathy1]

*Just stands here with a deer in the headlights look*
*Blink Blink*

[Grumble]

I was somewhat suprised but I like it a lot.

Generally I think the site will be easier to navigate but it will take some getting used to

[PantyFanatic]

When are we going to get the Shout Box back? :(

I have to be able to warn the people when the tidal waves are coming :eek:

[Sharni]

*LOL*....nah ya dont need it!!....you have ya floaties and lifeboat

[TinTennessee]

Send picture of PF's floaties...:)

[buzby]

undefinedWELL done Lilith A Change is as good as a Rest!!!! Liking it good!!

[Lilith]

The owners did it...and I'm grateful.

[Irish]

I'm sure that someone asked this.I must have missed the awnser.What does the colored dot,next to your name mean?Mine is the only one that I've seen,
that is red!Does that mean that I'm FLUNKING? Irish

[Sharni]

The dot indicates wether you are online or not.....as you are invisible it will always be red to you and grey to us....as far as i know

[PantyFanatic]

I wondered why I could never find the red dots spoke of. TY :)









Now why don't you just stay right here and answer questions for the nice people?:rolleyes:

[Sharni]

I can answer them and play...as well as chat to you lmao

[rockintime]

I like the NEW look. On PF's scale, I give it a definite 5.

[PantyFanatic]

I can answer them and play...as well as chat to you lmao
*NO!
NO!
NO!
NO!
NO!*

[Sharni]

Ohhhhhh Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh :D:D

[Steph]

Thanks, Sharni. Looking forward to opening the new windows in Pics of Men.

PF, leave Sharni alone - you are going to lose every battle of wits you throw at her. :D

You're using that brain cell at full throttle, sadly. I can tell!

[darogle]

Is everyone clicking 'quick reply' & then finding themselves subscribed to all threads they've posted in? Is there something I'm missing?

Go to User CP then Edit Options then scroll down till you find Default Thread Subscription Mode. Select Do Not Subscribe. That should take care of it for you.

[Sharni]

You're using that brain cell at full throttle, sadly. I can tell!
OMG....LMFAO

Good one Steph!!

[one-trick pony]

I'm finding that the Quick Reply button and the Quote button do the same thing for me. It opens the quote page. Why can't I use the quick reply?

Is this a Mac thing????

[Sharni]

You have to wait for the page to load fully....then in the quick reply box you will see this

"Please click one of the Quick Reply icons in the posts above to activate Quick Reply."

When ya see that click the quick reply button and type

If ya click early it takes you to the quote page....or if you write in the quick reply box before it has fully loaded....it will delete everything you've written so far and put the message above in your texts place (unless you can get it wriiten and sent before the page fully loads)

Hope that helps

[one-trick pony]

I waited and tried what you said, sharni......when I move the arrow over the two buttons, they have the same web address, the regular Reply button has a different web address. It's as if I don't have a button for Quick Reply

[Sharni]

You have to click the "Quick reply to this message" button first...its up near the Edit, Quote buttons

Type ya message......then click Post Quick Reply

[one-trick pony]

You have to click the "Quick reply to this message" button first...its up near the Edit, Quote buttons

Type ya message......then click Post Quick Reply
That's what I have been trying to do but it sends me to the page for quoting.

Maybe my being on a mac has something to do with it. But I never had any trouble navigating before.

[Sharni]

Hmmmm odd

I too get sent to the quote page...but only if i dont allow the page to load properly

[one-trick pony]

I just tried it on my PC at home and it works

just be a mac thing

[Sharni]

Ahhh cool...i am totally clueless when it comes to macs...

Some other mac user may be able to help though

[Steph]

That's what I have been trying to do but it sends me to the page for quoting.

Maybe my being on a mac has something to do with it. But I never had any trouble navigating before.

I'm not sure about this site, but the site I work for doesn't support Safari and suggests using IE 5.2+ for Macs, I believe.

[PantyFanatic]

OK. We’ve had a while now to find our way around our new clubhouse. :cool:

I’m personally getting use to a lot of the small changes in what lever works what. Just taking a while to learn the new tricks. It seems most of the initial glitches were handled quick and well. I ALMOST feel sorry for the poor guy that had to throw the switch for our new show and stand back while we Pixies went over it like an army aunt invasion. :D LOL

With the exception of ONE MAJOR FUNCTION :rolleyes:………….. it looks to me like this next generation has been tweeked and polished up for a nice, sleek looking and dependable running machine. As a pragmatist, that’s the priority for me. The new PM is sweet, ……… but still seems to have a few unconnected buttons. I’ll watch for what happens there in time. (I know the crew is busy assembling and connecting SOMETHIG ELSE;)……………. RIGHT? :rolleyes: )

For being at this point of settling in, I have to give us a nice 3+ overall. :) Thanks for the hard work. :)

[Lilith]

What is unconnected in your PMs?

[PantyFanatic]

What is unconnected in your PMs?
In my limited travels, I have used similar PM formats with the “close tag” function that doesn’t seem to work with the pop-up entry window we get. (not a biggie...)


























...But the SHOUT BOX is! :D

[Steph]

What is unconnected in your PMs?

My first guess was people aren't replying to his PMs and he thinks something is broken. :D

[PantyFanatic]

What is unconnected in your PMs?
My EvilSTEPHFilterSTEPHisn't working either. :(

[WildIrish]

I'm still trying to figure out if there's a way to not get that damn pop up box asking if I want a read receipt. I'd rather assume people are reading them than know they're not! ha ha

[Lilith]

I've looked for a way to make that just automatic or gone...I'll keep looking..it's driving nucking futz too!

[Steph]

I hit cancel when the request pops up. Do you guys get read receipts from me?

[WildIrish]

I hit cancel when the request pops up. Do you guys get read receipts from me?

I don't request read receipts but I do hit OK when someone else does...but I think my pop-up zapper kills them.

[PantyFanatic]

I hit cancel when the request pops up. Do you guys get read receipts from me?
Who would open a PM from you? :eek:

[Steph]

Poor dude, you're the one not getting replies.

Who would open a PM from you? :eek:

[Steph]

I don't request read receipts but I do hit OK when someone else does...but I think my pop-up zapper kills them.


OMG, you didn't answer! :D

Do you get mine? When you reply to you do you see that I've requested a receipt (I'm hoping you don't because I always cancel them).

[PantyFanatic]

Nobody would open a letter from you without soaking it in a bucket of water first.
(We know you’re Irish ;) )

[Steph]

Are you trying to be stripped of your Irish heritage?

An Irishman can't mock an Irishwoman. Yer balls disappear! True story.

[PantyFanatic]

I saw you driving down the street today. :eek:

This new screen seems to be working well for me, for the most part. When I use to post in the Shout Box, I could see it right on the front of the index page. Now I have a “pseudo-shoutbox-thingy” that isn’t even a “ sticky”. Is this happening to anybody else? :confused:

[maddy]

I've been having a problem ever since the change that I've been very quiet about because I'm nearly certain it is something I've done or my firewall has done, but here it is... my problem....

I have the site bookmarked as http://www.pixies-place.com:81/forums/ and I have to sign in each time I select the bookmark (a feature of my firewall and internet security). This isn't a problem. The problem happens after I click enter after my password. I'm brought to a screen that says something like "Click below if you are not connected". Whether I click the button or not, matters not in the result. I'm brought to a screen that indicates the site can't be found. Then when I select the site from my bookmarks again all is well and I am signed in.

Anyone have any insight on how I can make this stop happening? I'm guessing its just my problem since I've not seen anyone else comment upon this issue yet.

Thanks!

[MilkToast]

Maddy,
I would recommend that you clear both your cache files and your cookies (mind you, once you do this you get to log back into ALL the sites that had set cookies).... it might help.

Maddy, you mentioned it was a fature of your firewall and internet security that you needed to log in each time... what are you using and what browser are you using as well? I used to get something similar here and still do not recall what I did to clear it up.

[maddy]

I am using the XP Firewall as well as McAfee Firewall and Internet Security, mixed with IE 6.0. I visit another forum using this version of vbulletin and no problems there. So, it must be something with the setup here, and my computer.

Reading the first few pages of this thread when we got the new format and were all exploring. :roflmao:
