VR6Pete 1,455 Posted January 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 sounds like you have "Compatibility View" turned on for this website in Internet Explorer.... Turn it off, they will dissapear as turning it on disables all the scripts and advanced style sheets. Link to post Share on other sites

VR6Pete 1,455 Posted January 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 I've actually done a re-orgaise of the navigation links so it should be a little better ... further changes to make to trim it down etc...also added in a notification system which needs a little more tweaking, this will be used to promote premium membership and to notify you of important things / events etc...you can close the notification and re-open if your a premium member in 14 days, or every 3 days if your not a premium member...

VR6Pete 1,455 Posted January 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 Hi all!Been busy tonight again!The private message system has been re-designed so all you do is click private messages at the top of page and you can see what I've done! You now get easy access to all aspects of the messaging system which is cool! and details on usage etc... I've also tweaked the top of the page to display number of inbox messages as unread in your inbox. The slide in notification has not yet been updated due to issues I'm currently looking at but the view is that this will also display number of unread messages too. I've also removed some stuff from the forum on the full site like forum jump as it was difficult to use and looked a mess also trimmed down the area where avatar / premium member badge is shown etc...Will implement the notifications mentioned in my previous thread on the mobile theme and further work on that perhaps tomorrow!Please let me know of any issues cheers y'all Pete Link to post Share on other sites

VR6Pete 1,455 Posted February 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 Hi everyone.I have now enabled a new image handler on the website...It utilises something called 'fancy box' which is pretty cool as if the image is larger than your screen it will resize it on the fly, so viewing images on iPhone / iPad / desktop looks great! Another little cool thing is that it will allow you to view all images on the page you are viewing... this is pretty cool on build threads or a thread that contains a lot of photos... you can also use your scroll wheel on your mouse to view the previous / next image Have a play! let me know any issues...Here's a few example images to see how it works Link to post Share on other sites

VR6Pete 1,455 Posted February 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 performed a few optimisations with the login menu in regards to detecting if you have an unread message which triggers the alert... should now reduce the amount of DB queries currently looking into adding some notifications of when your premium membeship is due to be renewed...Pete Link to post Share on other sites
oldmandon 1 Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 Is there not a general chat area anymore? I see the premium members chat bit, but no general malarky/chat for non premium members. Or is it my failing eyesight????? Link to post Share on other sites
