    And the thread notifications turn green when something is new...wwooooowwww!

    Oh, what do you mean we can't rate our own post??? (jk)

    #52 12 years ago

    Thanks Robin, the site is great.

    #53 12 years ago

    Love it all! Thanks!

    Click the green unread and it will take you to the start of the unread messages

    It would be nice if we could customize the searches to some degree. Search only the section we choose. If I'm searching for the answer to a tech question on TAF I have to sort through many, many posts. If I could search only the tech section I can find what I'm looking for much faster. Just a thought. So far I'm still diggin it

    On another note, is it possible to add another rating choice for funny posts? It should be between on-topic and informative, since informative posts are more important than funny ones. Or do you think it is best just to keep the current 4, to keep the choices down?

    Quoted from way2wyrd:

    Awesome.

    #58 12 years ago

    I like it! Thanks for the work and dedication making such a great site!

    I just did that to get here...it took me directly to your post...how sweet is that!!!!

    Ooooo, and I just changed your pop bumper...COOL!!

    D'oh! Thought of something else. Exactly what solution did you go with for the teardown image hosting Robin? Still outsourced?

    Quoted from robin:

    the_pin_family said:Since we're using a google search engine(love that) is it still necessary to fill out the tag info?

    I'm not sure, maybe someone more knowledgeable on the SEO subject could chime in? The 2.5 update puts all tags in the page's meta keywords (I think PinHog suggested this a while back) and I'm pretty sure Google uses these to determine what a page is about?

    Ljumzzhk hudjbthe hdhnevdijdb jjfnvvtjdj. That is what your answer sounded like to me.lol. You lost me after "I'm not sure". Lmao

    What? You don't understand that Google runs on nuclear photons in a meticulously maintained electromagnetic field space spawned from the superfluous energy generated by the power matrix of the flux capacitor in Robin's gameroom? EVERYONE should've known that!

    #63 12 years ago

    Is Karma bumped when you get a highly rated post? That might be neat.

    #64 12 years ago

    Looks great so far. Keep up the great work.

    Now if we could just attach GIFs as our avatar!

    #65 12 years ago

    I am coming at everyting late as I have been out with work and health issues, but I wanted to say that I realy like the changes to Pinside so far! Nicely done!

    #66 12 years ago

    Great work! Love the pix at the header!!

    Shopout pics are stored on the Pinside server, thanks to all donations I could do yet another upgrade and get more disk space!

    #68 12 years ago

    wow! the best pinball site keeps getting better love the changes

    #69 12 years ago

    Absolutely fantastic!

    Thank you, Robin.

    #70 12 years ago

    The new post rating is genius. It rewards good help. Pure genius.

    #71 12 years ago

    The changes look great keep up the awesome work. The only two things I've seen that could be better are

    1. The picture scroll buttons. They need to be moved to a spot that doesn't move everytime you change to a different picture because of the picture size. When trying to scroll through them quickly I feel like i'm playing whack a mole not in a fun way.

    2. When going through and rating machines I like to see where it ends up in my list of ratings and I go to my pinside and click on the ratings tab it takes me to ratings settings which should be a choice off the main ratings list page. Instead I have to hit the preview on your ratings button then confirm then I can go to my ratings page.

    Just my opinion take it for what it's worth!

    #72 12 years ago

    Caught me off guard this morning! Love it Robin

    #73 12 years ago

    Couple of more nit-picky observations for you, Robin

    I had the "new mail" notification in the upper right corner going, but when I clicked on it my inbox wasn't bolding the thread with new mail like it used to -- so I wasn't sure if I only had one new message or several.

    Also a request that people may or may not agree with.. in the multiple page threads on the board, is it possible that when you click on the thread it takes you to the last page and not the first? I know I know.. just click the last page. But I'm lazy. very lazy..

    lol

    Best site on teh interwebz

    #74 12 years ago

    Awesome changes!!! Thanks Robin!!!

    #76 12 years ago

    Looks awesome. Is this forum based on something, or did Robin write it completely from scratch? Either way, Robin is an Internet Pinball force! Thank you for your hard work, I hope Pinside continues to grow and keeps its friendliness

    To me it seems a little confusing to have the topics you read marked in green. It makes it a little more difficult to find the ones you have replied to as opposed to just read. Perhaps there should be a profile setting to alert you of new replies on either topics you have replied to or topic you have just read.

    #78 12 years ago

    Not a fan of the rating system.

    #79 12 years ago

    So fresh!

    There's currently no distinction wether you only read or actually participated in a thread. I might add this in the future, but first I want to sit back and see how everyone perceives the updates and how the new features are being used.

    Anything in particular you don't like about it, or you just don't like rating systems in general?

    Agreed. I personally only want to know if i replied.

    This issue has been fixed . Your ratings are now showing again on my-pinside -> ratings!

    Awesome thanks! Now just those pesky photo scroll buttons LOL

    #85 12 years ago

    looking good but i'm having a problem with pinsidemail dating new messages as January 1, 1970. I started a new thread about this, sorry if this is duplicate. just want it fixed as new emails are going to the bottom of the queue.

    #86 12 years ago
    Quoted from robin:

    The ratings bar is a clutter, imo.

    Is there a way to opt out of the sytem?

    #87 12 years ago

    Wow, change is not always good but this change looks really good so far. Robin is awesome.

    #88 12 years ago

    Looks nice! When are we getting a chat room

    Oh, and smileys... we need more smileys!

    #89 12 years ago

    Oh and do we really need a popup to notify me that my browser is an outdated piece of crap? I know this! It's what we have at work and I can't upgrade.

    #90 12 years ago

    Love the new look Robin but a couple niggling things to mention... and they may have been already, dunno

    New incoming mails show a date of 1970! That may explain why I found them waaaaaayyy at the bottom of the pile this morning

    Not liking the new search as much as the old. It needs a "sort by date" option.

    Other than that pretty darned nice!

    #91 12 years ago

    I'm loving those random close-up pics you get at the top of each page!! Where is the archive for them, and can mere members add their own pics?? I just had a massive troll staring at me... amazing clarity of the pic...!!

    #92 12 years ago

    Very nice Robin

    Quoted from Cliffy:

    This should have been fixed. Let me know if it happens again!

    Quoted from Cliffy:

    I hear ya, but not sure if this is possible. Will look into this and see what can be done.

    #94 12 years ago

    Awesome job Robin!!

    Sorry, this should only show once per session.

    The prob is I'm getting quite some support e-mails from people who are on this ancient browser. I'm sorry, really can't help you guys - there's no way I can find time to do IE6 or 7 testing. I hope you understand and I hope you'll now start e-mailing your system admins to update, instead of e-mailing me to fix

    Come on Superman you can...oh wait...right, Robin...never mind! jk of course.

    #97 12 years ago

    One thing I noticed is that when you delete a favorite thread, it kicks you back to forum home, then you have to go back into the faved threads again to delete the next one..

    I see I have a "fan" out there "downvoting" my attempt to point out system bugs. hahaha!

    I, for one, would truly appreciate it Robin. Thanks as always!

    As a front-end web dev guy, we dropped support for IE6 3 years ago and only support IE7 only if the client has the coin to spend.
