New Forum Software

[Rhed al'Tere]

We'll set up a thread in the Graphics forum for people who need help with resizing avatars, or finding the originals, or whatever.


Personally, I'm looking forward to being able to copy and paste without needing to reformat. :rolleyes

 

[Alora Sionn]

I'm excited for this. Good luck to all testers!

Thankfully we have a lot of GDT people and nonGDT people volunteering their skills. At the very least I can find just about any image on the internet, including source. The larger avatar size will actually be kinda nice for a change.

 

[Lithiel Morn]

This is terrifying, but exciting.

 

[Charis Delphi]

SQUARE avatars?? *rage quit*

Just kidding sounds neato!

 

[Liam al'Eire]

Of course it can! Here's the original: http://imgur.com/a/Bn01f

Thanks, Elania! You are the best!!

 

[Alora Sionn]

New forum! Be there and be square!

There's your commercial, you're welcome lol

 

[Mendo Cath]

we need mr cheese but in a square lol

 

[Charis Delphi]

I know it's early yet but is there an approximate timeline for this yet?
And you said a minimum 200x200 does that mean they can be bigger and thus retain their no-square-ness (seriously I know it's small but it's kinda freaking me out and I'm honestly just curious)

 

[Elia LePhant]

Groovy. Mr. Bean Sedai will need to be resized.

 

[Alora Sionn]

Now you have my attention...

I think that'll be great, especially for people that copy and paste things into the forums on a regular basis.

The formatting issues literally made me cry after I became Head of Ajah and had to rework all the Ajah stickies. No joke, I mashed my forehead on my keyboard and ragequit the effort for a full day. :P

 

[Stephen Lightheart]

Y'know, you could just click "quote" and then use the source button to copy all the bb-codes, right?

 

[Jaryd Kosari]

It was a bit more complicated/extraordinary than that in my case. :P

 

[Elania al'Manir]

The new forum will also offer more security, in the ability to have 2-factor authentication via a mobile phone application, such as Authy or Google Authenticator, or via an email confirmation sent when attempting to login. You will have the option to “Trust this device for 30 days” for password-only login on browsers you use more often.

Will we have to have an authenticator, or is it optional?

 

[Mendo Cath]

Haven't gotten that far. At this point we know its AN option and will take more discussion with tower leadership.

It may be something we require for staff positions or admins or super admins or everyone or no one..

 

[Jeffan Caliarthan]

[Qamra Daielin]
