So what did we gain?

#3 is new if you don't have people on your buddy list.

You replied five times to six features . What about #6?

I have no clue on #6. Still exploring the site. And there used to be a check mark on posts that said if you were on line or offline.

The only major problem I have with the upgrade is that now the font is so small. Im getting eye strain. Is there any way to change the size of the font? I dont mean in a post, but in the threads.

The new indent feature is utterly useless. Try actually posting a paragraph, not just a single line, and you'll see why: It doesn't stop indenting after the first line (I suppose you could stop it manually, but that wouldn't be very good since the line would end in different places for different computers).

Well, okay, it's not completely useless. It'd be good when indenting long quotes and stuff (you know, like what you're supposed to do with MLA style).

I've actually noticed quite a few new, nifty features, but I have forgetten them all.

Oh, and does anyone know if the pop-up box for PMs works now?

You can manage the attachments you uploaded in your User CP. It's under Miscelaneous.

Wow, TF, that's incredibly handy to know what attachments I have posted. Although...how much space are you allocated? It only says "You are currently using 1.80 MB to store 69 uploaded attachments," no percentage, no "You have <this much> space left" warning.

What determines if a listed thread is bold or not?

 

[Thunderfall]

Well, the font size is the same, it's just that they put the thread starter under the thread title now, which makes it hard to see who started a thread.

I edited the templates to add the thread starter column back, just like in v2. Looks alot better this way IMO.

 

[Birdjaguar]

Ok, but some of the titles are in bold and some are not.

ANother new feature is holding your mouse pointer over a thread. It gives you a pop-up box of the start text in the first post.

this new quick reply is the worst. its as fast as a normal reply for me. I like the old quick reply a LOT more.

Thank you very much, looks much better.

Looks to me like the ones in Bold are ones you haven't read, yet....

 

[Hygro]

has the quick reply thing been "fixed"? It seems to be changed for the better

Doesn't seem to be that on my screens. Nor do they seem tightly tied to the date, but most are at the top of the list.

 

[Chieftess]

yes, the quick reply was fixed.

BTW, you could see the Who's Online graphic before. IT was a checkmark graphic with a biege or red background (depending on if you were online or now) by the username.

 

[Birdjaguar]

I think thatbolded threads are new threads since your last visit. Is that a feature of the new software?

 

[Moss]

When you vote in a poll, the option you voted for is now in italics. Not sure if that was a feature before or not.

 

[Ankka]

It is new.

 

[Eklektikos]

The second is plain annoying, as it displays my invisible status.

No more Stealthpanzer for you

I think the new quote tags are actually something of an improvement. Can now quote multiple people without having to manually add in the "Originally posted by..." line for every block of quoted text after the first, which is nice.
