It should be working again now. You may need to logout then login for it to start working again for your account.

At the top right corner of each page, just below the private messages link, is a "Quick Links" drop down menu. If you click that link you'll see a menu drop down that has various links, including one titled Today's Posts. Another useful link is the New Posts link, you'll see that one to the left of Quick Links just past the link for the Search drop down box.

I believe posting images should work the same way as previously. Details on how to post images using BB Codes as well as other BB Codes can be found here.

Some of us like to be sneaky. ha!


Yeah I miss being able to creep

How do I enable the "Quick Reply" box at the bottom? Mine isn't working and I went in the control panel and changed it to the WSWIYG (sp?) editor. :(

To activate the quick reply box you need to click on one of the quick reply icons for one of the messages in this thread. The quick reply icon is to the right of the Quote icon, at the bottom right corner of each message.

If your post is in relation to another specific message, it's generally a good idea to click on the Quick Reply icon for that specific post as doing so makes it so you can track that specific segment of the thread separately from all other posts in the thread when using the Hybrid or Threaded display modes.

If your post is in relation to the entire thread, but not any specific message, then just use the 'post reply' icon and that will set your post as a base reply to the thread within the hybrid/threaded display modes.

Linear display mode is the default mode for GC. You can switch between the various display modes via the Display Modes drop down menu that is near the top right corner of pages (on this page just below where the page numbers are at the top right).

In Linear display mode the threads will show as they always have on GC. The Hybrid and Threaded modes look a bit different, but enable threads that split into many different sub-discussions to be easily tracked and participated in.

This may be a dumb question, but what are the "public groups" in our profiles?

tunatartare 06-14-2006 08:16 AM

I was trying to figure out the same thing.

Drolefille 06-14-2006 09:56 AM

I've seen them elsewhere. But we don't have groups here..

Why? Some of us enjoyed seeing that people like OTW who claimed to have left actually do still visit GC.

OTW left? I was wondering what happened to her.

Thanks for responding to all our questions John!

As 33girl pointed out to me...the Spam/Report Post button is the red triangle in the upper right corner.

Your PMs now have a capacity of 70. This is represented on the graph at the top. The folder you are currently searching in is shown in red. Other used space is orangish, and free space is green. Pretty handy for determining how much certain folders (such as your sent folder) are actually taking up.

Past Posts
 
If you click on a member's name and ask to see all the post from that member, it only shows the most recent 500. Will that be rectified?

AGDee 06-17-2006 05:48 PM

New question here.. maybe it's just me, but I'm having to log on every time even though I have checked the box that says "Remember Me" and have cookies enabled. Anybody else?
