Forum Update

Everything is perfect now! Good job to all involved

How about an easier/better way to post pics? I haven’t been able to post anything since Photobucket decided to charge for hosting and the uploader won’t even let me upload pics at the smallest size my camera shoots in.

Also, I really think it’s time to update the look of the page. Maybe have a contest so some members can submit designs and we all vote at some point. I said the same for the Facebook, but the end result there seemed pretty “lazy”, if you ask me.

Is anyone else having a hard time getting the forum to load? I know it’s not my wifi or anything because of tried on multiple devices and locations.

Also @Dren, you could use imgur. It’s really simple and unlimited storage :slight_smile: although a new upload system would be cool.

It’s extremely slow to load for me as well.

Glad it’s not just me.

I just used a stopwatch to time how long it took for me to click the reply button and the reply prompt to load. 20 seconds.

Not nearly as efficient for mass uploading, though, from what I can tell.

How do you mean? Mass uploading to Imgur, or creating a mass upload for you to paste on a message board? If you mean the latter, it’s always been really easy for me to mass upload. I couldn’t find a tutorial when I started using it so I had to figure out on my own. Maybe I can make a tutorial and put it on youtube or something haha.

EDIT:

Dren, I made a little tutorial and put it on Youtube for you.

Once you copy that mass link just go ahead and paste it on your desired post and there you are! :slight_smile: Hope I helped!

Derek while you are tweaking things, is there any way to increase the number of stored personal messages? It has been 50 forever, and it makes it very challenging at times. Even doubling the max to 100, would make a big difference.

:drinkers: :rock: New forum moves and looks sexier than ever Derek! Thanks :slight_smile:

Ah ok was wondering what happened while I was gone briefly. Guess we’ll celebrate Pumpkin Days now haha.

I have increased the file size allowed for image uploads. It was previously 2MB, and now it is 4MB, which should allow you to post photos from your camera now. You can now also attach up to 10 images in one post (up from 5).

The private messaging settings have been updated and you can now store 100 messages.


I am not noticing the slow loading times - my assumption is that the slow loading was temporary as I am not experiencing that issue at this time.

I use imgur.com

It’s way better then Photobucket was. Try it.


Btw Derek,

My email will tell me that I have a message on mm.net. And when I switch over to mm.net to check my message it never tells me that I have a message. Is that something that can be fixed?

Derek, the forum is moving much faster for me now! Thank you!

And ahhh! Finally with the PM’s. Thank you so much, man.

Slasher- AGREED! I didn’t like it at first because I thought you couldn’t mass select/upload but I eventually learned how. The tutorial I uploaded should do a good job of showing that

Thank you Derek!! That is a huge improvement!

Seems to be moving much faster today. Whatever Derek did, it worked.

Woo! Glad it’s resolved for you too!

Brilliant Derek. I got to say, that after many years, you have always made this place a respite that always feels welcoming. Thank you! :rock:

Super slow here. Have to used Tapatalk. Still appreciate the updates Derek!

Give it a while and maybe it’ll stop? Or delete board cookies.
