New Message Board Format?

[Guest ncm2169]

So, all of a sudden, I see a new "first page" here on the Message Board, and the type size is like 2 or 3 times larger. Did I do something on my end? Help this tech dummy!

[guptasa1]

Same here. Isn't you. I wondered the same thing.

"Did I do something on my end?"

 

I don't know, can you post a picture???

[jackhammer91406]

While waiting for the pic of the OP's end to be posted, let me say, I like the new format. In addition to having the large font, the forums now fit on the full page without scrolling. Like that alot.

Now, patiently waiting for the ass pic...er..um...I mean the end pic.}(

If you want a rear shot, can I borrow Rick's? :9

 

For a frontal, can I borrow Ethan's? }(

 

Want more? Schedule an appointment. My rates are VERY reasonable. :o

 

P.S. Thanks for the feedback -- good to know I'm not a tech dummy (at least in this instance). :7

Just another upgrade. Probably will have a few bugs that Daddy will need to work out. Also best to post them in his forum so he can keep track. So far I haven't had any problems at all and like Jackhammer noted the left to right scroll is finally gone.

BTW: you can view the same inro page if you click expanded conferences at the top of the new intro page.

It is new. Daddy had a notice up for a while earlier today that he was upgrading the software.

 

The type size is still the same for me, and I didn't have the scrolling problem before, but the new version is crisper, cleaner for me. It seems to have better resolution and that makes it easier to read. I like it.

I can barely make out dark blue type against a black background. Almost totally unreadable. Help! I'm going blind fast enough and I have to see naked guys tomorrow for the Gaiety review. Could we have white type please? or a lighter (much) background color? Thanks.

[theDCeBOY]

where do you have a black background???

[foxy]

In the panels that list the forums. Am I the only one?

[foxy]

OK, I fixed some of it by choosing "classic view" but still keep seeing these black panels with dark blue type. I'll keep playing around. As usual, I'm in the dark.

[theDCeBOY]

yeah... i think you might be the only one.

[foxy]

Just when I thought I'd found a team I can play on. Stuck in the outfield, all alone.

>In the panels that list the forums. Am I the only one?

 

foxy I don't know if you're the only one but there might be a problem with your graphics card. The conference that lists the forums alternates between a light gray and white background. There is no black background that I'm aware of.

 

Check for updates of your graphic card drivers if you still have the problem.

Foxy, I had the same problem. Turn off your computer and try again. The dark blue went away when I did that.

foxy, you're not alone; you're playing in left field, but cooper is playing in right field on your team.:+

Daddy, Members of M4M who are using webtv to view this site are now seeing the message center in black and blue. It's almost impossible to read the main page. There is absolutely nothing we can do to correct this on our end. And please, don't be funny by saying to us "get a real computer". Some of us are old and on fixed incomes. Purchasing a real computer will take food off our tables, end our dependency on perscription drugs, and prevent us from seeing our favorite escorts... Anything you can do to return to the original colors?

 

Regards from the Black and Blue Party...

[Guy Fawkes]

The problem is that on my side the colors have not changed. I can not see your side, so I how can I fix it?

 

I have WebTV on the phone to see if they can make any recommentations.

 

Also try this link: http://www.dcscripts.com/dc/dcboard.php

 

See if the same problem exists there. Thanks

 

Cooper: Feel Free to call, the number is in the moderators area.

[foxy]

The same problem does exist there.

Daddy...I know you must be snowed under but I'm wondering if you know someone with webtv and you could call up the site to see the problem for your self? It might give you some insight on how to solve the color problem and hopefully it could be something really simple. Of course I know...nothing is ever simple...wishful thinking on my part. I'm sure Cooper and I aren't the only luddites using webtv. Webtv users, raise your hand! Speak out!

To the guys that are having problems viewing the correct color in the Message Center: You can download a trial version of snagit and take a screen shot to email to Daddy so he can view what you are looking at. Also, if you have Microsoft Word, you can open in then push the "print screen" button on your keyboard. Place your mouse in a blank word doc, right click and select paste. That will create a screen print as well. Then attach it to a email and send it off to Daddy .

It's FIXED!!!

Thank you, thank you Daddy, whatever you did, I can read everything now. Whew, what a relief.

Foxy, hmmmm, no relief here. I don't know if it's a slow fix solution like an electric grid, but I'm still seeing black and blue on the "main page".

 

Daddy, If it's still the same by this PM, I'll give you a call. Thanks for the offer of assistance.

[Guy Fawkes]

Hummm....I didn't do ANYTHING! Cooper--You may want quiz Foxy on what he did!
