Upgrade on Tuesday

[Carl]

We'll be doing an upgrade on the boards around 11am EST on Tuesday (Nov. 23). These things usually take about 4-5 hours, so if we're not back online by 6, please send some positive energy to the Fusion technical staff.

[Lucky]

See what a little positive energy will do?

[Carl]

Yeah, this took longer than expected, and we might have some more to do, but the heavy lifting should be done.

[edna]

I see it slightly different but it's cool as usual...

Those smileys up there... I still prefer the old ones, too good they are still here...

Thanks for everything, Carl!!!

[Viaene]

Funkay!

[Levis]

ogod what's happened to Amicae :'(

[Viaene]

Hey, is it me or has anybody else difficulties in reading on what page you are in a topic?

The colors of the page-link-numbers used to have more contrast, no?

[MindCrime]

I think it depends on which skin you are using.

[Lucky]

Yep. We went through all of them, checking them out. The one I use (Cobalt) seems to have changed the least. The font appears sightly different, and some icons are (as noted) a little hard to distinguish.

[couchtomatoe]

Yeah the css stylesheets for the skins did go through a change. theres a new format for the images directory structure. The forums themselves were untouched but will be upgraded to the new format tonite.

[bluesboy]

Thanks for the heads up CT.

[couchtomatoe]

OK gonna be shutting down boards at 6PM EST for about an hr or so

[Carl]

OK, we're upgraded. Let us know what you think and if anything is screwy.

More detail on new features coming soon...

test:

youtube embedding

can't seem to make that tag work... what exactly is needed here?

EDIT: read the Help topic, it should work like I expected, but putting the url in obviously doesn't

EDIT: working now, thanks

lightbox:

EDIT: oh, that's nice

besides that: it would be nice if the subforums were clickable directly from the forum overview again

and what's the referral link / credit for?

and before I forget it: nice job

I still cannot see what's the page I'm in...

"Wild Horses" - Stones

I posted a video and it works (with the old method)

The youtube link doesn't seem to work... Do I have to copy and paste the link?

And I see the option "don't mark as edit" isn't available or is it me?

[couchtomatoe]

Should be able to use either now..

[Farin]

indeed, just had to edit my original post again... thanks couchtomatoe

[Lucky]

Thanks couchtomatoe for all the work that you and whomever else has gone too. We are creatures of habit around here. Please don't take our questions as complaints, we need to acclimate ourselves.

I was getting ready to ask where the icons for links, images, bold type, and the smiley icons had gone, and already they are back. Y'all rock.

[Lea]

Yes thank you Ct it looks really nice. It will just take a bit of getting used to:D

They are there when you reply to a post, but they are still missing when you PT someone.

I notified Carl about the missing PT icons.
