New Mods Log

Postby Andrew on Tue Dec 28, 2004 2:26 pm

As you may have noticed, I've added a Quick Reply function to the forum. I'll be adding some of the other things that Ruffryder suggested a while ago, but I want to consider whether some of them are necessary and perhaps gauge everyone's interest in them.

I've also changed the signature limit to 450 pixels wide by 100 pixels high. This restriction will be enforced by the new signature control mod. As such, I'll be resetting everyone's signature so that you may restore your signature according to the new restrictions. This will make it much easier for us to regulate signature images.

Please let me know if there any problems or if you have any more suggestions for improvements to the forum. (Y)

The Resize Fix Mod has now been added. Images over 600 pixels wide will be resized automatically to preserve the layout of forum. Please note they will not be resized until they are completely loaded.

I do mean to centre it, I just wanted to make sure it worked first. Once I finish up installing some other mods, I'll get on that. :)

I've just been looking over the Report Post mod. Should be easy enough to add, but it will cause a cosmetic problem: the icons are for the default phpBB skin and won't match our red scheme. This needn't be a problem for too long, but if it's going to ruin the NLSC Forum Experience, I'll hold off adding it.

If it was more urgent, I'd be more inclined to add it without question and worry about the superficial details later, but things seem to have settled down a bit and when there are problems with topics, members usually PM or email about them if moderation is need urgently. But even though I'm not adding it today, I haven't forgotten about it and will be adding it down the road. (Y)
