How do I change my board or forum name?

Thanx!!!! :D

Hey Steve, can you duplicate this and let me know if it does it for you?

Host a simple PDF file... and then deep-link to it directly.

Can you download it via the link shown in the message post? I tried it earlier with 2 PDFs from home and it didn't work. Then, I put them both into one RAR file and presto... downloading works. It all stayed within the same source directory, etc.

I was getting 404s saying file not found, but the capitalization and formatting was right (all lowercase, single filename, no spaces, .pdf extension).

Thanks man!

definatly liking the new look.


that is all.

Cause your ahead of me!

I used to find it usefull at times and I know some members could use it

Since we've been doing a lot of cleaning up and whatnot around the site here, I've been debating doing a forum post recount to further clean up some of the old mess.

What this means?

it'll reflect your true post count on the site.
the posts counted for each forum and for the entire site will reflect what's currently stored in the database instead of the ongoing, and innacurrate count.
it will give a true indication of your current contribution to the site.
there will be no change in your status (active members remain active members, locals remain locals, noobs remain noobs)

on the downside, it also means that most people's post counts will decline, with possibly only scooba steve to benefit.

I want to do this to reset things to where we currently stand, and get everyone on equal footing.

If you have a problem with this, please speak up now, or forever hold your peace.

Well despite me dissing the new homepage.... :lol:

I gotta say that the new FC 2.0 skin is friggin awesome.//..a much needed and professional looking upgrade!!

cheers darkpuppet on a great advancement for FocusCanada!!

Just tossed up the new welcome page, you'll notice that it no longer lists topics in the moderator forum or the bunny cage.

I still have a few things in mind, but t'is a start, and I want to get started on finishing the board template changes.

how come the board wont allow CGI paths for images? but it has to be a .jpg? i use a file upload utility that stores the image in a path like myhost/attachment.php?attachmentid=12684 but i have to manually go in and add a .jpg to theend for FC.net to recognise it and display it, this will cause twice the load on the fileserver as the path doesnt exist it has to re-process the whole url path again..

I know I'm a bit slow getting the rules updated across the board and for that I appologize, but for the time being, we've implemented some changes for Avatar Guidelines.

Because the site wishes to remain friendly for browsing at work, we will be enforcing certain avatar restrictions. Please observe the following when picking an avatar

- sexually suggestive avatars are prohibited
- clothed, pictures girls are fine
- no vulgar language in avatar
- avatar should be work safe

I know that folks dislike the impediment on their freedom of speech, but this is to ensure that folks can get their focus fix any time of the day regardless of where they surf from.
