Attention, please note: I'm planning to post in this thread in the next few minutes. Please prepare mentally for facing a longer thread than when you looked at it last time lest you be scared shitless. Don't say I didn't warn you.

Panties - maybe not the best thing in the world, but next to it.

I actually think it would be nice if we got to know first every time anything is done to the site so we can mentally prepare for any changes. So Steph and Drew, please do that every time from now on, thank you.

Much better for trying to decypher where there are or aren't new posts.

Chill out people you are visiting a porn forum not strapped to the captain's seat of the space shuttle and having NASA change your navigational coordinates thirty seconds before liftoff.

I think the turqoise/whatever looks great. I love the current colour scheme.

It's pretty nice, It will grow on me. But I did not care for the orange and yellow scheme they tried for over a day.

yes, it's part of what I'm working on. User's will have their own filespace where they can upload files/photos to embed in posts or as attachments to posts.

I've got most of the hard parts done I just need to finish the admin system. I'm building a system that will make it easy for us to "moderate" uploaded data, especially images. We need this for a variety of reasons. You'll only be able to embed images that are uploaded to your file space in your profile. We won't allow embedding of images from other locations on the internet.

I preferred higher contrast. MY eyes aren't so good.

Hamsters are pretty nearsighted.

Drew, how much space are you planning to have for each poster?

I haven't decided yet. Reviewers will get 250MB or so, more if needed. Others will be limited to some reasonable number like 25MB or 50 MB. The way it's written if a user (or photo mod) pulls an image from their space it won't show up as a broken image elsewhere on the site.

I'm doing it this way for two primary reasons: 1) to be able to quickly dispense with images that don't comply with our posted image policy and 2) to be able to have a proper and effective DMCA response system.

BTW, the file space will also be used for storing attachments to private messages.

I think the colors on the Active Topics page are still the old colors.

Thanks for the heads up on the active topics page. I'll fix that one. I almost never use that page so I didn't catch it.

The new colors, as they've been tweaked, are growing on me.

The new colours have a tasteful, restrained Land's End chinos sort of feel about it. Comfortable, not too confronting and easy on the eye. I like it too. The difference between the posts in a thread could possibly be the tiniest bit more pronounced perhaps. Other than that, I think it's very nice Steph - good for you! I like the little blue folders thingo too.

I literally could spend hours and hours tweaking the colors. I had to stop myself after 35 renditions. I'll probably change the yellow folders to grey simply because it's more logical that something you already read should be greyed out.

The funny thing is when we first launched the yellow everyone complained that it was "too headachey" "too bright" etc. So I expect that initial reaction to change.

Anyway, glad some of you like. I know I do.

This would be a good time to link to an old screencap of the red layout.

Those old red and blue ones were Steph using a very early version of FrontPage.
