Hey Mike,

Are you going to update the photo resource section too? The picture size limit is really tiny. And the whole procedure is confusing (and I’ve posted a few of these!). Any way to make it as easy as the forum?

Gracias,

Lee

I would humbly suggest:

“Reply To” given in post headline

The “last post in thread” arrow on the main Forum page.

The “see your post” option when you “Post Comment”

Where are all the colored fonts and different sizes n shit? It was fun when some people would post in all bold, or all blue or all red. LOL. You can tell a lot about a man who posts in bold every post. LOL

Will old “links” to threads of previous forum version of Swaylocks every work again?

Mike,

I can post new, and reply, but can not EDIT personal profile, in order to put my avatar back up. Can you help?

Bill,

It’s actually pretty easy. If you’re logged in, click on “My Account” in the upper right of any page. Once in there, you should see three tabs. View, Edit, Track

Click the Edit tab. The second box down is an form element that lets you upload an image. Make sure you hit submit at the bottom…

when one replies to a post of mr X

in the reply, it cannot be seen the reply is TO that particular post, of that particular person.

it would be nice to add that to the 2do list.

12

can always just quote them to specify… but sometimes that’s nice, yes.

And I’m stoked that the Email Notification is back online! Woooo!

13

Thanks for mentioning that. I’m particularly proud of that new functionality…

14

Unfortunately this won’t happen for a while.

15

This was a great suggestion and is now implemented.

16

Great, Mike.

Hey–couple other things I thought of–through experience just now…

-PM searching- for a particular post from a particular party- is malfunctioning in that my handle is coming up as the TO party when I try to sift through my SENT PMs-

-also the PM views is way too few PMs at a time–it’s like 10 at a time-

-it would be really great if you could pull all the PMs to or from a particular poster somehow-

-it would be great if the old threads on the site could be sorted some way into calendar years-

Thanks again.

Hey Mike!

How about having the ability to be logged in at different locations at the same time.

eg: I have 1 comp in my shop and my laptop. I often want to be logged in on both.

Currently, I have to log in every time I switch because it boots the other computer off.

Just a thought

Lee, It’s on the list…

Unfortunately…no.

Aloha Mike, It would also be nice that after you reply that the webapge went back to the discussions page instead of back to the post. Plus now it’s like I lost my long time standing and am starting over again.Aloha Kokua
