Give us suggestions and report bugs and whatnot in this thread.

I'll start:

Who's a guy gotta blow to get an animated avatar?

[Jouster]

Can Upload Animated Avatar Yes No

I don't know what else I can do, buddy.

[Kentock]

EVERYONE I LOVE DIES.

So just cut it out.

[aenemaTron]

Can Upload Animated Avatar Yes No

I don't know what else I can do, buddy.

I don't get it?

[Jouster]

Automated backups are implemented. Never again will anyone have to die needlessly.

I don't get it?

That's the setting in the admin panel. It's set to yes, so if you can't upload it now, I'm not sure what might be preventing you from uploading one.

[aenemaTron]

ohh. OK. Your snazzy buttons in the post confused me. I'll blow you next time I see you.

[seanrush]

I suggest getting Jenny back and making her a mod.

[Famous Police Dog]

Can we get new smilies that don't have terrible gif dithering like this

[yumitree]

that's not dithering, just bad transparency (made for a white-background board).

[Famous Police Dog]

i just like saying dithering

[yumitree]

well, i suggest you stop!

[Jack]

You're both right since the transparency matte is set to white and the edges are dithered. So get along!

[isoS]

We're going back to the old smilies that we had on the last board. Just give us some time to swap them all in.

[aenemaTron]

Can I suggest that people let threads be created a little more . . . naturally? Like, let Jesse Thorn start his own TSOYA thread, for instance. It's not a huge deal, but it might be annoying to people who like to be able to freely edit the first post of a thread that's about them.

Threads don't need places held for them. The system works as is.

[Jack]

Thanks mysterious mods!

[TimBuktu]

I'd still like to see a thanks (kudos) button for individual posts. I know it exists on vbulletin.

[dan telfer]

I'd like to reiterate a suggestion from the "lost episode" of AST earlier this week- make the subject lines of posts look less like the body of the posts. Different font, different color, something.

[Famous Police Dog]

A delete post button for the uninformed idiot in me.

[Adult Ed]

When posting shows for the calendar, the default time shown is GMT. Is there a way to have the event show the time for the time zone local to the show?

(Yes, I did put the local time in the body of the post, but the top line says that the show is at 2AM GMT.)

[Itslikeimsayin]

The new board isn't keeping me logged in. Any advice?
