Site upgrade: Forums and Private Messages

Posted Sunday, 3 February, 2008 - 15:29 by the Fiddler

A site upgrade has just taken place. If your browser misrenders forum posts or comments, press Ctrl+F5 to reload the stylesheet from the server.

What's new:

  • New forums: Personal Projects, Off-topic discussions, General Programming and Game Design.
  • Private Messages: you can now PM other site users.
  • Updated looks: comments now look much better. Your own posts are highlighted (orange), to make them easier to pick out, as are posts by administrators (light yellow) and moderators (light blue).
  • Comment titles: you can now set an optional title to your comments.
  • Reduced overhead: front page should now load faster.

If you don't already have an account, just pick a username and password (no confirmation email needed). Thanks!

Nice, improvements make big difference already. Thanks!

P.S. I am a big fan of Rich-Text-Editors, it would be cool if any improvement of this type is done in the future.

Thanks!

The problem with Rich-Text editors, is that they don't to be unreliable on some browsers. I'll keep it in mind for the next round of site upgrades, though ;)
