Site Updates - June 10th

Question.
How is :angel1: an angel when they've got a knife behind there back, and the img is called KillYou.gif ???

 

[Redstiletto]

The images need to still be gone through and some innappropriate ones taken out

 

[Crazy Liz]

Can we please be able to hide our faith and gender icons please?

Or at least, be given a 'blank' option. I don't think everyone should be forced to affiliate with a particular faith and then have to show it to everyone.

Yes, please.

 

[Letalis]

We deleted most of the inappropriate ones, but there are still a few left.

 

[SpiritualAntiseptic]

Yes, please.

In fact, would you all please hide those icons until you can make showing/hiding them an option?

thanks!

 

[Tychicus2]

For the record....

There are lots of good smilies I would have preferred...

I like the icons. I really appreciate the gender icons because at times its appropriate to know who your talking to.

SirAdrian..
Whatever was being worked on last night has really messed up the way things are displayed on my screen. I don't think it's my laptop, but something that was changed here. It started around 10 or 11pm est last night. The names of the users in the forums are not being displayed correctly, and if someone is a moderator or admin (or chaplain) it shows that symbol over the next person's name.
Also, the fonts are really messed up when typing. There's too many spaces in one word and not enough in the next ...
Please advise..Thanks!
Jere

**Edited to add the following:
it is not just the "M"s or "A"s..It is also appearing in the Bank section. Any where there is a radio button to check or uncheck, it moves it over about 3 spaces it seems.
Really hard to read!

 

[Jere209]

In the future, but there aren't any immediate plans to do it.

If this is in reply to my question about the "gifting", thank you for the response.
I hope this gets moved up to take a more pressing precedence over some of the more minor things like smilies and such. I realize those are important too, but like LadyT mentioned earlier, there are some here that makes that feature a real need. Not just a desire or want to have by us.
thanks

 

[SirAdrian]

I did not do the smilies, I have been working on restoring the postbit and privacy features.

What about this problem?

 

[SirAdrian]

I have no idea; can you create a bug report and provide screenshots of what you are describing?

Did not know..
Well, I have been talking to other staff members about it, so maybe LeeD will do something. Hopefully. Because it is really "a painful tradeoff" as one person said for those with vision problems..

 

[Jere209]

Yeah. I will ...

 

[Jere209]

Ok..Done.. I put the 2 examples there. It is not really noticeable once the post has been made, but while typing you have extra spaces..When you wear bifocals (lol) it's hard on the old eyes at times..

 

[Jere209]

and, btw, Adrian, if you go to any forum you will see what I am talking about. In some instances it has moved it clear over in the middle of the next person's name (who's in the forum).

I'm not having this problem. They were doing some work last night on icons, so it's possible something got hosed up for you then. Have you tried clearing your cache and refreshing to see if that fixes it?
