    Red face

    Hostboard has a few features...

    If you click on the face with a question mark, it takes you to that person's profile. In your profile you can put things like email address, likes, webpage url, and you can create a signature statement to attach to your posts.

    If you click in the letter icon, you can email that person.

    If you click on the pencil and paper you can edit and/or delete your posts. Which helps if you spell like Crash wink (Note: You can't edit or delete others posts. If you want to test it, try to edit one of mine. It looks and feels like you can, but the final screen will tell you that you can't.)

    The letter with a arrow let's you respond to a message by quoting it first. It uses UBB code which you can learn more about by clicking link on the left. Html is also turned on.

    Also on the left is the smilies legend. You can use them or disable them in your posts by clicking a box at bottom of your post.

    You can also select to get a email everytime someone posts in a topic you create, by clicking a box on the bottom.

    Junior members become Senior members after 30 or 60 posts, I don't remember which.

    If you have any questions, ask, I'll answer if I can. smile

    Exclamation

    Like I believe that, I am surprised that you didn't create a new level for me "Brat Member" (grins)

    Question

    Hmmmm...is there a way to reverse the order of viewing the posts from newest to oldest rather than oldest to newest?

    Not that I know of CT. At about 100 posts they become unwieldy and we start new topics at the other board I hang out at.

    But I will ask and poke around and see if I can alter that, but I doubt it.

    Doesn't look like I can change viewing order, but I can change background and links and alternating post colors. So if we want to do different colors, let me know, we can test some out.

    If anyone wants to design a logo for us, I can upload a different logo as well.

    Heh... OK, I'll behave now...

    And let me know if you want me to sweet talk Vox into helping you with the logo. You know he'll do anything for you.

    Yeah, I know Eris, but a few of the gang I brought over do graphics as well and might have something in mind.

    Tandara? Jasoom? Someone else? Any of you up to the task? I'll find out what the specs are in a bit.
