| Hey Heidi and jenn and everyone who worked on getting the site up,
First off: THANK YOU for the hard work.
Now, a few questions:
The threads are now wider than the screen (I checked - it's not due to someone's post), is there anything we can do about it?
Then, the script we are using (it looks like Arial Narrow or something) is a bit hard to read - is there anyway to make it normal arial again?
I had the same question about changing the title thread - but I see Heidi is working on it.
Then, on the index page, it lists all the pages of a thread up to 15, I think. If the thread is longer than 15 pages, you can't go to the last page directly. Is there anyway to change this so it lists all the pages linked to a thread?
Thanks a lot! We are a difficult bunch!

| LiVE,
Well, let's see...
I'm going to work on that scrolling thing. I can't get it to happen all the time, but we'll get it figured out.
we are using plain arial. i can change it to verdana or something if people are having a hard time reading it.
we'll also look into it linking all the pages of a thread from the main page. i had just noticed it was doing that today.

| Wow, quick response! Thanks, Heidi!
About the font, maybe you should wait and see if it bothers other people too, maybe it's just me and my bad eyes...
Thanks for the efforts with the rest of the stuff.

| Oh thank god!
I was really beginning to think that the print size was only me, but then maybe my particular problem is still me.
I normally have both my browsers (netscape and AOL) set to default to a font and text size of my own choosing (verdana and 14pt) because I’m blind and it just makes reading long pieces a lot easier. When the new board went up last night, which, good Lord you guys are so wonderful for all your doing for us, major kudos, it refused to take my default settings. That’s happened before and usually its no big deal but in this case it is.
I went back and set everything to come up in the board’s settings in case I was inadvertently doing something wrong, but it didn’t change. I don’t know what font I’m seeing but the text size is I’m guessing about 10pt. and its absolutely killing me. I’m not sure if this is my problem or something that could be made better on the board. If anybody has any clues when you get around to it I’d be more than appreciative.
Thanks again for all your incredibly hard work.

| I'm also having the scrolling issue that Liesel mentioned. Thanks so much for all your hard work and I hope for your sake that all of these minor inconveniences are a quick fix.
Thanks again for everything.

| Hello,
Thanks for all the hard work everybody.
I've got a couple of quickie questions.
What is a magnet post? It's an option I've seen at the bottom of a couple of screens.
And the subscription thread? Is this the new bookmark feature?
Thanks so much,
Thea

| Hey guys!
Nice job on the board!
A couple of quirks I noticed. I was just on the Spoiler thread and posted after Angela. When it popped up I was now ABOVE Angela's post and it changed the date on hers and Kapones to the 13th.
Also, the font was REALLY BIG also. I then went in and added a second post and it put me under my first post and above Kapone and Angela again. The font went back down to the normal size.
Just thought I'd let you know about it. Oh, and it's on page 22 of that thread if you are interested in looking at it.
Hip =)

| ok. i fixed the topic editing thing.
i upped the font size a bit.. does that help?
still working on the scrolling thing.
i think magnet topics are an admin thing.. i'm not sure what it does
subscriptions are sort of link bookmarks, and are to replace that feature.

| Hi. I just wanted to add, in case it helps clarify, that I'm having the width problem even on the main fanfic page that lists author and title. It isn't restricted to a within a thread problem.
Thanks again for all the hard work. The board speed has increased tremendously.
