Howdy, folks! The staff here decided to take the plunge and upgrade to Zetaboards-- considering the new games coming out and games our people are already running, it should offer -many- new tools to aid us in RP! Just was are these new tools and features? Some highlights: User-created Joinable Groups --Just like PSO-World's. What can we do with these? Well, as an example, we could use them for in-character organizations (Little Wing, Guardians, AMF, DnD campaigns, factions, etc) to share IC information and messages. Blogs --I remember several people having in-character journal posts at one time. Now, you can have a dedicated one! Or just use it for OOC ramblings. You access this via your profile control panel. Integrated Shoutbox --No more logging into Chatango. The shoutbox is now integrated into the website-- you post directly from your forum account. Extended Profiles --We can add whatever profile data fields you want-- I will make a request topic for this, soon. This would be great for storing character data and profiles. Even character sheets! Calendar --Fancier Calendar function. We can use it to mark DnD games, events, and so on. Avatar Gallery --We can upload our own selection of avatars that any user can choose from. This is just cool. ALL YOUR OLD STUFF IS STILL HERE, TOO. There's also lots of other new features I didn't list! |

Only problem I am having is the banner is stretching outside of the borders. Anyone else having the problem? (Could be the fact I'm on a netbook, with a resolution of 1024x600.) Edit: Apparently clicking the banner also links to the ImageShack page hosting the image, instead of reloading the forum. Edited by Sa the Hand, Sep 18 2010, 09:21 AM.

Figured out the banner sizing thing. Resizing my browser window solves it on my desktop. Netbook still has it even fullscreen. It still does link to the ImageShack hosting of the image when clicked. |

Yeah I have that problem too at 1680x1050, unless I make the window a certain width. Also is there supposed to be a blank box below the banner? It's height varies depending on which forum page you're in. But when you're viewing actual posts its not there at all. Edited by Valtea, Sep 20 2010, 08:05 PM.

That white box is most likely where advertisements are supposed to show up. They show up except when viewing posts for me. Does clicking the banner direct you to ImageShack or reload the forum? |
