Avatar Issues

Rush Eloc's picture

Well I wanted to change my avatar because I decided that hate my current one, but each time I try to upload a different one, it just shows the one that I already have up. And, yeah, it fits the format and file sizes, so I've no idea what's wrong with it...

Edit: Funny, the conflict seems to have resolved itself. Okay, you can disregard this!

URL parsing issues

I'm seeing a pattern in the parsing errors. URLs that are meant to be hyperlinks are only properly parsed when they are followed by a blank line. This can probably be fixed somewhere...

THIS LINE IS NOT BLANK!

A couple of possible features to add?

skippyfox's picture

I'm noticing an uncomfortable lack of features in this forum that other forums have, such as the ability to subscribe to threads and the ability to link images to a post.

Would it be at all possible to be able to subscribe to threads in the future? And, if possible, to subscribe to ALL threads by default, so they appear in my inbox?

The other thing is that is not one of the HTML tags that the forums allow. I can understand that this would cause a lot of bandwidth trouble on a mailing list (or if the previous suggestion was fulfilled), but in a forum, images hosted on another server should not cause any trouble.

Possible Rendering Issue?

In the Vehicles thread, it looks like there's some odd avatar rendering going on. Instead of extending the post to allow for an avatar, it slides the image to the left to get around the one hanging down too far from above, and so on down. Nothing overly major, just a curiousity.

Errors found with posted poll

I posted a test poll that was supposed to show up in the General Discussion forum but I don't see it there.

Instead, I only see it from the Recent Posts list and from a page that CLAIMS to be a General Discussion page and could very well be, but can't there be only one?

Anyways, the actual poll is here and the original glitch I found is here:

Along with the "For Sale" forum. . .

Could the For Sale forum become, or be joined by, a forum for news updates, blogs or classifieds by local furs? For example, if Joe Wolf from hicktown or who knows where wants to announce his furry fiction site and needs to get the word out but doesn't want to spam the forums, could this new forum be for that kind of thing? The same could go for job postings like the few that have appeared on the mailing list recently.

Is this a good idea?

"What is a Furry?"

omnibahumut's picture

I understand that the answer to this question is rather ambiguous, and the specific definition varies from fur to fur. And technically, Bugs Bunny and the like do fall under the furry catagory. However I'd like to be able to point non-furry friends to the site, and the description you have may mislead them into thinking that I have some silly obession over Tony the Tiger and Bugs Bunny.

I'm not exactly sure what I'd put there myself, but I'm not sure that I like whats currently there.
