Welcome to the New TradTalk forum

[Papabull]

The new forum offers a ton of new features and you have the ability to customize the layout to your own preferences. We'll add new layout options as we can to let you have a new look and feel whenever you'd like. :)

If you don't already see the content from the old forum, we will soon be importing it, so stay tuned. We hope you like the new home of TradTalk and think you'll enjoy the enhanced functionality and performance we now have.

Change is bad !! Shows how dumb I am !



:eek: Bill :eek:

[Papabull]

There are a lot of new features in this site including the option to change the look and feel of it. You'll find that option at the bottom of the page. We're not officially "live" here yet, but will be soon. I think this will grow on you!

[Esquire]

Here I is. :)

[Papabull]

Did you check out the layout options? I installed the Dunes Applied because I thought it looked great. You can find the options in the bottom most left hand part of the screen in a drop-down box.

We're still hoping we can get a full import from our EVE platform, but it's hard to tell at this point. An awful lot of hours have been spent trying that and so far, no success.

[Esquire]

Just tried it. BTW, if you don't import everyone's seniority, some of us new guys are going to feel like old timers!!

I'm sure you're relieved to have this move under way at last.

[Papabull]

I was hoping it would be more transparent, but it had to be done and the sooner the better. This should resolve people's browser problems, response time, uptime and allow for much more fluid growth, scalability and most of all, portability. We were essentially held hostage by our hosts and it became an untenable situation.

[Esquire]

Would you mind posting instructions on the avatar. It probably should be self explanatory, but I may be slow. Thanks.

[Papabull]

Among the options that should be available to you is the option to set or change your avatar. You can upload it or just point to a link somewhere else on the internet.

If you don't have that option, let me know and I'll take time to investigate permissions.

[Viper]

After noon Bull,

Made it over.

Can't add an avitar- again - any help?
It was that crack I made about Lumis, wasn't it?

Viper out.

[jgbennett6]

howdy all, nice digs

[Papabull]

Try again. I've assigned charter member status to everyone who's signed up already and will try to make sure everyone who's aboard within the next few days gets the permissions settings to go along with it. :)

[Viper]

Bull -

Thanks - Guess it worked!!! :)

Now, about those emoticons ??? Just kidding, vBulletin was a good choicem thanks!!!!

Viper out.

[jgbennett6]

i'll tell ya what, it is quite a bit faster then it used to be!!

[jhinaz]

Howdy,

Congratulations and good luck with this new board PB!!!

I haven't checked out all the bells and whistles yet but I sure like the speed ... even though my 'mouse' doesn't have a metal riser ;o). I hope the slowness stays on the old board.

[Holmes]

Hmmm... sorta comfy over here.

Believe you've built a nice new house here for us.

Thank ya kindly.

Holmes

[Spike]

Seems cleaner and faster :)

[Bill Tait]

I'm glad to see that Papa Bull is in charge of the new sight. :cool: That Robert Williams guy was too formal. :eek:

[ROD JENKINS]

[Coodster]

Whew had a few probs regestering but I think i'm here :eek:

[van_fl]

well ilike it--now lets get some new posts here

[BowDonkey]

You can all breathe easy now.

[Pinelander]

Very nice... thanks for the hard work there Robert and Lewis... vBulletin is a good one.

Now how the heck did Viper get his avatar inserted? I have no options to make an avatar. There's only one radio button there and it doesn't do anything. When I click Edit, it does nothing as well. :(

[Bowcephalus]

Anybody see any traditional outcasts around here? I hear this is their new hangout.......A bunch of hot tea drinkin', Warfbow,open-minded fanatics............Word is some folks around here even shave with straight razors........... ;)Nice Job you guys!!

[Papabull]

Piney, I updated your permissions, so you should now have no problem with the Avatar or layout selections.

[Scooter]

I've entered the matrix. :D

[Pinelander]

matrix lol....

It's REAL if ya believe... are we in Kansas yet? where's that witch-bitin' Toto anyways... dang ankle-biters. :p

outcasts - frankenshooters, metal heads, tradborgs, junkyard jackies, gizmo gappers...

[DAS]

Hey, this is nice! Just to cplicate things more I changed my "handle" to Das Kinetic (or just DAS) .....formerly redwing

[DAS]

Robert, I'm having the same problem with the avatar that Piney had. Can you update my permissions too?

DAS

[Pinelander]

Ohhh-no... don't do it PB! That DAS guy is here to corrupt the metal-heads even further than they already are.
It's ruination I tell ya, just ruination. LOL :D

[DAS]

Pinelander,
LOL! Corruption is a relative thing, would you agree??

[Cueball]

Robert, it keeps saying my image is to large. I have opened it with paint and have gotten it down itty bitty. Help.

...........................................Roby... ...............................

[Papabull]

we have limited the pixel count in order to keep from overflowing the database with a plethora of oversized images.

You can use www.myimaging.com to resize the picture. "Size" is actually the byte count rather than the physical size you see on the screen - so resolution and dimensions are both important.

Let me know if you have any more questions and I'll be glad to help.

[Larry Hatfield]

how do you start a new thread? i can't seem to find anything that relates.

[DAS]

Larry,
Go "back" one screen and you will see "new thread" at the top left of the menu.

[Larry Hatfield]

thanks.
how do you attach a picture? i got one to display the link but could'nt attach it.

[Larry Hatfield]

thanks.

[Larry Hatfield]

golly! it posted! actually it's a picture of lumis taken when he visited our booth in las vegas. i asked him why he had those things in his nose and he said, "because they are out of asparagus!"

[1bjd]

Looks like we are all settling in and ready to get at it! Thanks again PB for all your effort. Also love the new site :thankyou: John
