I have no doubt that "dildo" is one of the top ten search terms on the DMF.   [laugh]

having just searched for "dildos" on the DMF

it appears that you two are the only ones who have ever mentioned them

I'm sorta disappointed

Spidey - I forgot one - I completely agree that the visited links in the left hand bars should not be gray.  That I think I/we can fix.

The forum titles on the index page also go grey when visited.  I'm not sure if that was intentional (in which case ignore this post) or not.

All the ones that I see are shaded, from dark on top to lighter on bottom.  That is a .jpg file that is repeated over and over to make the background, not an actual color.

With whatever you're running right now, the "Kitchen Sink" cell on the index page has flat grey.  All the other Category cells have the shaded background from the .jpg file. 

Edit:  It fixed itself.  Weird.  That's the same thing it did the other time I mentioned it.

sometimes when things are under change, a periodic shift+f5 (or shift+refresh) is a good thing.  It forces a fresh reload, not just a refresh.  The reload reloads all gifs and jpgs that might have been cached previously.

For the record, I don't do well with major changes.

I like the DMF the way it was.

Fix it.

Current config is much easier to follow than it was a couple weeks ago.

Only thought... Used to be able to preview a thread my hovering over the subject line inside one of the categories. It would give you the first couple lines of the text without having to click the link.

Minor issue, but I still find myself hovering over subjects hoping to find out more.

That has been broke for about 1 month now  [laugh]  We will fix it though, it takes an edit to the php index file, so it isn't high priority.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this yet or not, but it's pretty difficult to distinguish links from text.  Is there a way to change the color of links so they they are differentiated?  I don't underlining will be enough b/c it might just look like . . well . . . underlining.  :)

Here's an example of a post with a bunch of links in it:  http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=18480.0

Thanks again for the work, mitt.  [thumbsup]

is there anyway to highlight the "my messages" button when there is a new pm there?

i only just realized that i had a PM because of how unobtrusive it is.

thanx!

Set you preferences to notify you when you have a PM. I have mine set to open in a new window when I get them...

i do get a notification by email, but sometimes it is kind of slow (???)
regardless, it would be easier to see/find if it were in bold, or a different color
