We now can puit images in our signature blocks. Could you do that before? Are these avatars?

All it takes is using the same code:

[img]photo_url.com[/img]

that is used to attach photos to posts.

Oh man I can see this getting out of hand!

I can't wait to see Brettski's avatar or signature photo or what ever it's gonna be called.

Hey I wonder if the new system will allow mods to change peoples' AVATARS ? Now that would be fun. \:D

I like it, a little medical look, but very easy functioning, now to see if I get a avatar to work

Theo - All of a sudden I went from member to Lunker! Is the new forum software still updating or do you become a Lunker by asking Theo Gallus a question? \:\/

Well, you can call me old, and you can call me fashioned,...but, you doesnt have to call me old fashioned.

Problem is, I cant log on at home on my win2k computer. Guess I'll have to go shopping for a real computer(none of those fancy schancy dual core thingamajigs, though. I also hate Vista. What shall I do? Guess I'll log on to the Miss. fish forum.

No, really folks, I cant use it at home. I'm sure DIED dont have a prayer of logging on. Get some of tha teckies to figure it out. I try to log on, and usually, it just sits there. I logged on a couple times, then when I click on a topic, it just sits there. It's a commodore 64(no not Lionel Richie). Why wont it work? No, really, its a Dell 86 series, that was in use at a law office, til a couple yrs. ago. It has 512K ram.

Burger, I don't think it's your computer - the new formum is sometimes s-l-o-w and I have VIOS 54.0 Mbps.
Seems like I'm on dial-up but it's worth the wait...

If anyone is having slow speeds you can turn off signatures in posts so you don't have to wait to load the extra text and images. My Stuff > Preferences >


There also might be some extra traffic while everyone spends time getting to know the new format.

Man this site is running slow. As an experiment I turned off both avatars and signatures. Cleaned cache, ran Spy Bot and Adware and two different reg cleaners. I have both a fast computer and a very high speed cable internet connection. I know it's this site because I can log onto a news forum in a third of the time.

Hopefully the access times will improve.

This has got to be killing anyone on dial up.

Too much "stuff" on the new forum for me - I'm skipping topics now WOC (waiting on computer) - but I'm not biting the hand that feeds me....

well it is faster than the pondboss magazine mail service to el dorado (of which i finally received mine last week), but it is also slower than the old software. on the dial up it is only tolerable if one has something else to do while waiting.

no excuses, no complaints, i figure i just need to get that highspeed connection eventually, and get used to the new format. i understand (dont particularly enjoy it) when companies quit servicing particular versions of whatever the product, and things have to change. PB is just keepin up w/ the times......good job JP and Bob.

This computer is dial-up, and it's no slower than before. (?)(?)

Dial-up is the bottleneck with that type of access.

If you're filling a glass through a 1/4" outlet funnel, it doesn't matter whether the water is coming from a pitcher or a firehose.
