I have added three more codes that I hope will make Pun's House a little better.

1) When you click reply (not use the Quick Reply box at the bottom of a thread) there is a "Live Preview" box above the Message window. This will make a live preview of whatever you are typing, so you can see what it will look like as it is being typed. This is supposed to support smilies, BB Code, etc., so everything should be formatted just as it would post.

2) Avatar size limits have been removed, but I ask that you please keep your avs to around 200 x 200. Please check it and re-size them if necessary. If the admins find one that is breaking the board tables, it will be removed and you will be sent a warning PM.

3) The AIM icon in your profile and mini-profile will now have your online/offline status indicated. Now, you can tell when people are online or offline with regards to AIM.

As always, if you have any problems with these codes, please let me know, so I can try to fix things.

Is there anyway to turn the live preview off? I didn't see one. Was a HUGE pain in the ass doing large scale Fantasy football posting.

Yeah, I didn't want to be the one to complain because my computer is basically slow. But its a pain with a big post. And with my slow computer even quick posts were a pain one day. I mean, its about my slow computer being over loaded and low on memory. I need to restart if I want to do anything worthwhile. But "Quick Reply" is kinda about not needing to spend the 5 minutes to restart and come back to post something stupid about hamburgers or something.

In the end I'm not complaining because you can avoid it with a little effort. Use "Quick Reply"and if you have a quote just copy, hit "Back", and paste. But I'm editting my post right now and its mildly annoying. Would be nice if we had the option to shut it off.

I'll remove it now. The creator of the code mentioned that it might slow things down for people that have large posts. Sorry about that.

Wait. You mean that function might make Lucky have to (gasp) not write 7 paragraph posts all the time? Or at least make it painful for him to do so?

You sure you want to turn it off?

Jerk.

Actually my real problem was the same one that I suspect Mike was having. The Fantasy stuff where we have HUGE posts for Draft Order or Rules or Rosters or stuff like that. Copy and pasting 30 lines of a roster means 30 lines of preview.

Like I said, the Quick Reply was a simple enough way around it if the board likes it. I wasn't gonna be the one to complain because (a) my computer is slow and (b) I do type longer posts than most and (c) only 1 or 2 other guys have my fantasy concerns. But I just thought I'd back one of those 2 guys up when they seemed to have the same problem.
