private messages :mog:

[HOOTERS]

Could you make the box that says if youve got pms bigger like it was before? It's harder to notice in the corner :smash:

[Kirobaito]

I agree. I couldn't even find my PM box until about two days ago on vB3.

[Shlup]

I don't like it over there in the corner either, but I sure don't know how to change it. I have PM pop-up messages turned on though, and now they even tell you who the PM is from and what the subject it. Its neat, even though all but one of my recent PMs have been titled "Name Change."

[Calliope]

All cos of me! Yeah!

[Leeza]

And...while someone is making <b>Private Messages</b> bigger (or <b>if</b> someone is making it bigger), maybe the thread that's being viewed in <i>Who's Online</i> can also be made bigger. :)

[Cid]

Turn notification on.

[Mikztsu]

But pop-up killer kills the notification...or <i>does</i> it?

[Loony BoB]

If I knew how to set it up so it was exactly like it was before, I would, but I don't know how. I might have a closer look at how it was coded in vB2 later on, but I've not been able to conjure up stuff like that with much ease beforehand.

[Death Sign]

I think it is pretty good... I noticed it the first day!

[Peegee]

That's cuz you probably weren't around to see the happy vB2 days of bore. Those were happier times imho.

Though we still do need a newbie forum.

[Flying Mullet]

God, I didn't know that everyone on this board is so old. Do we need to start sending out reading glasses to all of the members?

[crono_logical]

Is the new child forum style good enough? :p Of course, being old style means you only see the PM bit on the front page too, not on every page :p

EDIT: Seems nice to me, the top is less cluttered than before, and the chocobo also turns blue when you get a new PM :p

[Leeza]

Actually, I agree with you, crono. It took me a while to find the PM box the first time, but once you know where it is it's kind of nice to have it uncluttered and on every page like that. :)

(I still think that the threads being viewed on Who's Online should be bigger though.) :)

[crono_logical]

What threads? They're big enough to me :p

[Dr Unne]

It's nice the way it is now. Is it that hard to learn to look 5 inches to the right of where you used to look? I'll answer myself, no it isn't.

[HOOTERS]

Yeah but the thing is I didnt used to look anywhaere, it was just shoved in my face. I like when stuff is shoved in my face. :confused:

[Dr Unne]

Move your face five inches to the right.

[Psychotic]

But pop-up killer kills the notification...or <i>does</i> it?

No.

[Yamaneko]

And if it does, you know what that means? That's RIGHT!

Firefox time! (http://texturizer.net/firefox/)

[crono_logical]

What? It's always Mozilla/Firefox time :p

[Del Murder]

Can we at least throw the chocobo up there? That's noticable. It's not that we can't find it, just that we forget about it. For mods it's particularily frustrating because a member might be trying to get ahold of you and you don't notice for three days.

[crono_logical]

The chocobo to the left or right of that PM bit? It'd look out of place on either side, I think, since on the right it'll seem on the wrong side, and on the left, it'll be in the middle of the whole bar and look silly :p
