DjCiD Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 This is un-usual ... I'm not sure if it's just happening to me, but when I try to use the mark all as read button I get the 'page cannot be found' thingy. ??? makes me un-happy with the un-satisfactory results :D ... I'm sure this joke is the opposite of under-done ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobalopper Posted July 21, 2003 Author Share Posted July 21, 2003 PhaseBurn updated MySQL to a newer version which might have messed up the site for a few minutes, should be working now Dj. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DjCiD Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 Working fine now, I also had a problem with the new links not working, giving the 'cannot find page' thingy. But all are working now.Thank you Gob and your unfailing succor ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobalopper Posted July 22, 2003 Author Share Posted July 22, 2003 Server was down earlier due to some config problems which meant things needed to be recompiled, should be back up and working now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted July 24, 2003 Share Posted July 24, 2003 Is it possible to have a Dune Quote page or a short Random quote appear somewhere on the main fed2k page(not forum, unless...). They could be from the books, or movie/miniseries or Games. Preferably books and games since it is a Dune gaming site and movie/mini are not as good as books.I would be happy to get quotes from Dune books and possible Dune 1 , dune 2, dune 2000.Also how much would it cost to send a hard cover Dune book to Alberta from PEI? (NOT suggesting anything). House Harkonnen is only $8.99 at bookstore. [regular 30-40]Dunesday prize at best. Just a thought and only a thought.

Andrew Posted July 27, 2003 Share Posted July 27, 2003 In the FAQ:[ img ]http://img.jpg[ /img ] <img src="http://img.jpg" alt="" border="0" /> where is the alt="" coding in the forum codes? (left side) all the left side shows is how to show a picture, and does not say how to add alt or border. :(Also sad to say that the signiture image problem is not fixed. :'(EDIT - Earthnukers avatar isnt working...is it time for me to delete temp internet files?

Gobalopper Posted July 27, 2003 Author Share Posted July 27, 2003 Duke Leto is using a bmp in his sig, that is most likely the reason the problem happens as he is the only one that has a bmp as a sig image.As for quotes that might work but I've got a bunch of other things I need to get done first.alt and border are added automatically, you can't put your own text in.I don't have a clue how much it would cost, it would probably be better to send it to Mahdi though since he would be doing all the co-ordination of a Dunesday if we did have one.

Terror Posted July 27, 2003 Share Posted July 27, 2003 bmp pictures are unefficient for unold, also known as modern computers. I do have other issues though, like that pictures are unloading, or not loading at all. This kinda sucks, but it might have something to do with my IE, instead of dune2k.the birthday thread is not an uninteresting idea i guess. As like with the coming and going stuff, also for birthdays a lot of threads are created. No one HAS to tell he/she is birthdayed, erm has his/her birthday (damn english fools) but everyone who would like to. And i think that it might be less unefficient than the coming and going thread, as in that thread all the people who leave post there. But some others who come back from a long unpleasant time they create threads still with stuff like, I'm back aren't you happy? So i think this birthday thread could be voted upon or something. it's not realy a big thing/issue, but a good idea in my humble opinion.

Andrew Posted July 28, 2003 Share Posted July 28, 2003 Ahha!! I will IM Duke leto and ask him to change it to a jpg and see if that works..hopefully. and if that solves the problem maybe ban bmp pics if problem arises with other bmp pictures in signitures.

DukeLeto Posted July 29, 2003 Share Posted July 29, 2003 Shit, do I feel embarrassed. Changing it to JPG seemed to fix it-I can even view the site in IE now. :-[ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted July 29, 2003 Share Posted July 29, 2003 Thats great news actually. All we have to find out is if it is just .bmp that screw it up or if .gifs do to.Hurray! sig images!Does anyone else use a different format in sig images?Are you using .jpg Dukeleto?Also in the FAQ maybe you should add that bumbler is Gobs test account.Maybe also explain a bit who special guest members are. (why they are special guests) [yes i know they are important people who worked on games etc, but others may not.] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DjCiD Posted August 1, 2003 Share Posted August 1, 2003 sweet ;) makes more sense that way ... any chance of it showing what the hidden members are doing or at least the number? ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobalopper Posted August 1, 2003 Author Share Posted August 1, 2003 You can see the number hidden on the main board index. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DjCiD Posted August 1, 2003 Share Posted August 1, 2003 but if your one of those members that camp 'Who's Online' you could miss a valuable refresh of what someone your watching was doing when you go back to the front page to see who's hiding :DWill this now show the flag of the guest too?ok I just looked and it showed a guest with an American flag so I guess it does :-P What about seeing the flags of the hidden members ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
