Comments and Suggestions.

All of sudden, a lot of images on BAB aren't loading. They're just showing up as black or white rectangles. Though when I click on "view image", it appears, and when I go back to the page, it's back to the normal.

Am I the one who's got this?

Everything's okay for me, Shark.

What I wanted to suggest was that maybe somebody could move that huge amount of polls Gravity made in the JB Films forum to the Polls forum. Mod to the rescue, plz?

All done.

The image problem has since passed, whatever it was.

I have a suggestion. I miss a lot of new thread start-ups because there doesn't seem to be an active-topics link or today's posts link. Any chance the program will allow for such organization of posts - most recent posts at the top, sothat when one logs on, you can easily see what threads are active that day?

"Today's Active Topics" in your bottom right hand corner on the front page is pretty much a complete "Today's Posts" link, though I'm not sure whether the posts are put in order of most recent. There's also the "Posts since last visit" link in your top right hand corner to click on.

That's the one I use. I have it bookmarked.

I do use that but still I miss lots of new threads.:scratch:

Maybe M could introduce a version of that feature, where every thread created on can be viewed in order of last post. Kind of like what NuMi6's got.

Actually the View posts since last visit link suddenly seems to be displaying way more posts. Did M do something?

I'd sent Forumotion an e-mail the other night about one of our members being unable to view some of the forums as I'd spent a while trying to find the solution to the problem myself but to no avail. But that problem seems to be clearing up, so maybe it was just a Forumotion lull the other day and things are hopefully back to normal now across the forums.

Thanks M. My concern though was that we might need a "today's posts" link or link to "latest posts", so one can keep track of what the latest activity is. Maybe its just me and the way I navigate the site, but I seem to often stumble across threads that have been up for days, but that I didn't catch via, the View Posts Since Last Visit link.

New banner with the blue 'AND'? Ace.

I also appreciate that the banner's text is anti-aliased now. Much smoother.

Is it just me or have the pages been widended? I have to scroll horizontally to reach the end of a post.

Works fine on this end. Maybe it's the computer screen-size.

It's a banner issue. I had the same problem as CJB, but I fixed it by zooming out. Still doesn't help, since the text now is a bit hard to read.

Works for me. Nice banner too.

Seems like they have. Regarding the scrolling, it might depend on your browser's window size or computer's display size.

I'd like to suggest that we have a separate thread for SKYFALL set and shooting pictures. It's great that we're getting all of the location photos, but it also seems to be taking a long time to load up the pages, along with the comments. Sometimes I'm trying to read the comments, and then suddenly the page just keeps expanding and expanding because not all the pictures have loaded.

My 14k modem is having trouble hand downloading all of this information.

You guys still having this problem? If you are, one solution is to slim the banner down and then make the board's width not a fixed amount of pixels, but rather a fixed percentage of any given browser's width. Would that be easy to do, M?

No, it's fixed.

Yep, fine for me now.

I like this little poster at the bottom of the front page, it looks like she might clean his gun.

Midgets are great at head.

How about a Film Music sub-forum within the Film News & Discussion forum? Any thoughts?

Sounds good. When M logs back in he can reconfigure it.
