Missing is Found

[TalonRider]

It would appear, since it's getting close to Halloween, that one of my Jack-o-Lanterns has found its way from The House to Awesomedudes.Must have been one of those pesky hobgoblins.

Sorry... that must have been my pesky kleptomaniac Halloween cat, Big Mac. Go give him a piece of your mind.. I think he's hanging out on the AD Stories page.

[TalonRider]

Not a problem. Actually, it looks better enlarged than button size. :D

[dude]

Big Mac pleads innocence! He says he downloaded it from elswhere on the web and says he doesn't visit the Talon House anymore since you don't offer him treats like birdies or mousies....

[TalonRider]

In that case, I'll have to see what I can do for Big Mac in the way of treats. I'm in the midst of putting some new skins together along with some new emoticons. Maybe I'll have some of the tastie snacks for him.

Some of the features Invision has added to the latest version is a spell check, the only problem is, it doesn't work with Firefox, only IE. However, I did find that Mozilla Firefox has a Google tool bar that includes a spell check that will work.

Another feature I like is the edit function for posts. There is now 2 options to choose from. One allows you to edit the way you normally would. The other opens the post for a quick edit. It does not show you a url if you have one posted. They've increased the size of the color pallet for fonts and increased the size of the font list.

But I'll see what I can do for Big Mac.

Evil, says I.

If it doesn't work with Firefox, burn it. IE is evil and must not be supported.

A pox on the House of Gates.

Hey Dude, tell Big Mac that he may find a few treats at The House. I've added the avatars and the skins are now viewable to the public. D's also doing a little tweeking for me.

Jan,

You say you are using Invision. I had considered going to them when I had the major problems with database/forums... but their documentation -at least on the website- didn't give me any indication of whether the conversion from phpBB would allow me to keep... for example, the template I am using here. Vereor Men In Black. Do you know?

Dude,

That I don't know. I can check their forums to see if they have anything posted concerning phpBB. If I can't find out anything there, then I'll try contacting technical support with the question. One other option I have is, I have a member at the house, a writer, who is also a skinner for them. The skins I just added, I believe were made for them by staff and made available at another Invision site. Other skins that I have, I picked up through independant sites, which included a Mozillia Firefox skin.

Show us a pic of Big Mac!

He sounds like a cat I used to hang with. He was fascinated by lighters and would slap them all over my old apartment.

When I moved, I found a nest under the sofa where he kept all his toys- 14 lighters, feathers, 3 catnip mice, etc.
