Is there going to be a favicon.ico for the forums?

MODIFY: Wait what? When I post I want to see my post to make sure I didn't screw up something, not go back to the forum view. >_<

Under the text box, click "Additional Options..." and check the box "Return to this topic.) Alternativly, go into your profile and into "Look and Layout Preferences" and check "Return to topics after posting by default."

New forum is open i see. This looks great as well.

I dislike avatar choice here. There is No any metroid theme avatars. Actually i find only music and actors avatars. :|
I lose my current avatars when i update my profile.

Anyway. Hopefully Metroid choise avatars come up soon.

EDIT:
i find one more weird thing in this forum. I create already one screenshot my 22% completion in post time topics Prime. This screenshot disapper when i log out. When i log in screenshot appear again. When somebody else create screenshots i can see everyelse screenshots without need log in. Weird :-s

Intestesing... I just noticed that you can apparently lock any topics that you created yourself. I was in the MP3 Time % Difficulty topic, which I started, and I got the option to either delete or lock it. (At the bottom left of the page)

Not sure if this is a rendering glitch or a problem with the style. See image attached.

By the way the feature where it says at the top of the reply box "Warning - while you were reading, X new replies have been posted. You may wish to review your post" is really nifty. :D

this is fun too wheeeee

Great to see that attachments are still here. I was afraid for a moment because that's the only way I can put up anything of my own.

And I noticed the "delete account" option as well. If for some reason someone ever did that, would their posts still be there afterwards?

Yeah, I like that New Post feature as well.

And I just came across a potential problem: I noticed the new spoiler tag (The radioactive symbol) and when I tried to use it in a post, two things happened: I couldn't get a preview of my post when I used it, and when I tried to post it anyway I got an error message saying I didn't have the proper permission to use spoilers. :-s

I think we've got another bug with the people online system: 90+ guests right now?

Oh, and I also noticed that you can now delete your posts after someone else has replied to the topic.

Edit: Hey, that's cool - You can click on the number of guests/members to see where everyone is looking on the forum at the moment.

this is probably due to the new permissions (guests can't see attachments). should be fixed now.

also about the avatars, i will do it when i get the chance.

does that happen even if you don't use the button?

Quote from Banjonator:

THE FORUM HAS A BUG!!!!
when i click on (for instance) Boardwalk because I see that there are new posts, the "NEW POSTS" alert on the front page will disappear although I haven't touched a single thread which means that I haven't read them. But they are marked as read. meh

i suspect that smf may claim that is a 'feature'. ;)

Quote from Prime Hunter:

yeah, probably stupid session management again. i thought smf did it better than phpbb but i guess not. or maybe it has to do with the search engine-friendly urls. too bad in any case.
