Some ?'s about this site

[ReefLady]

I don't want to rush you guys or anything, but do you have a list of staff members yet, and who did you bring over as Moderators?

Right now, we have on board:

Cosmic
Curtswearing
Craig Manoukian
Pro_builder
Pooduck

Not in any particular order. ;-)

A great team if I say so myself. :dryer:

Very cool. :bigblue:

I do agree.

Avatars

OK, We had VB set to only allow users to upload a custom avatar after having 20 posts.

I changed this to zero for the time being, so you should be able to upload your own avatar, or link to it from elsewhere.

Will this work for you guys?

Setting up a library of avatars for you to choose from here is going to be a big project and will have to take a backseat to ther things at this time.

Cool?

BTW I love this smiley:

:barf:

You da man, Travis!

 

[sharks]

Ahhh thats better

 

[ReefLady]

Ahhh, much better. My friend the pooping torch is once again by my side.

 

[ReefLady]

OK guys, we had the avatar max size set kinda small LOL.

I bumped it up to 75x75 pixels. Let me know if this is still too small for ya's! (keep in mind the size will eventually affect loading speed)

For now....I have the search configured to work for words which are 3 letters or more. I don't know how this will effect the server - I truly don't know the full future implications of this. I'd figure we'd start with it (take it for a test run if you'd like) - and if gets to be problematic, we'll work on a solution at that time.

I would monitor this closely Teri. Depending on how they have the search tables designed using 3 letters could cause them to balloon to monstrous size in a surprisingly short time.

Cheers,
Keith.

Those smileys are great! I especially like the barfing, exploding, and HUGE smileys :bluegrima :bigblue: :dryer: :explode: :barf:

Looks Great...I know it is probably in the works but perhaps a link to mIRC chat that connects directly to reefsanctuary...

 

[ReefLady]

Good point Scott, it's definitely planned but somehow slipped off the "to-do list."

 

[fidojoe]

Yes, the direct link to mirc would make it soooooo much easier, cause right now, it takes me forever to get into there, and I have to go there a lot, cause like yesterday, those darn aliens...grrrr!

LOL, I coulda used an extra 3 pixels for mine, I had to resize it.

 

[gumhead]

avatar size should be 100x100 IMO.
