New Forum Additions

Hi Folks,

We've had a few new additions done that allow us a few more options. We've got some floating menus that will allow us to post some links to other pages and a lot of hot menus to link to current topics etc. More things will be coming. To see everything change your bookmark to http://www.gt40s.com/ubbthreads/index.php

I know it comes at an expense - it will be slower loading. But I dare say that at least over 65% of us are on broadband so I'd like to take advantage of it. What do you say?

Re: New Forum Additions

Remember - the colors are your choice. You change those under "My Home" and you can select preferences. Then look for "Style Sheet", there are a bunch.

You can also turn off the sidebars in your preferences as well.

There are also a lot of other neat things. Check in the upper left from the "Entrance" page and you'll find links to all the polls, link to all the attachments which essentially lets you view pictures all day long. Also, there is a shout box which is essentially like a mini chat room online. There is also a "Profile Index" which will help you find other members by various seraching means.

And, the quick search in the upper right does wonders. I've adjusted it so it defaults to "All Post" not just two weeks old. That means a lot less admin questions to me on how to find stuff.

Re: New Forum Additions

Ron, I like it. Makes the board look a little more "active" I think. I am curious what the criteria for the "Scorcher" is?

Re: New Forum Additions

Lynn, only 5 posts at this time. It is adjustable but when it was at 10 nothing happened. You need to post some more of that CAV on Ebay stuff and we'll get things fired back up again!
