NEW STUFF!

We'll be listing Sanctuary's new features in this thread.

First up and maybe most important is that we now have a "report" feature. Look in the upper right hand corner of any post and you will see a button labeled "Alert Moderator." Click it and you will be able to send a message to the Administrators. I'll be checking to see if we can get the Globals included in that. Be sure that you mention what thread and post you are reporting as I'm not sure if that information is included automatically in the report. *Puts that on list of things to check LATER*

LD, which skin are you using, the new default style or the old one? That could be a factor. I don't see it anyway because I'm on the staff here so I'm not sure which has it and what doesn't!

ETA: Let us know via PM or here please. Smiley

I just checked the 2.1 default skin. It's there in the upper right hand corner of each post. It's a triangle.

We also now have "mood indicators" which I'm gonna go test right now.

now to for Penth's next list is to get it to show up on the old skin. that way she will be able to apply it to other skins should she choose to add more.

also for those mood indicators.

The mood indicators are a mod that D added to the basic software so tweaking it will have to be on his list. We'll be checking every new template we put up to make sure that all the functions are there and working. That might slow us down a bit in getting them up but we want them to work right as well as being pretty,dramatic and/or awesome.

Another new feature we have is the ability for staff to send you a "password reminder" without having to know what your password is. This should be a boon for those who tend to forget these things...

Reason: Font was WAY too small to read!

bitstream

Tempus Sans ITC

both of these you need to expand the default font on. otherwise they will appear smaller than the other fonts.

I don't know if that is something that we can fix at the "software level" or not. It might be something you just have to remember to do when you use them.

Skins are now available, the Noir set are usable, the O_Opacity still needs setting up.  The Moods and the You Posted here aren't working on them yet.  But, I'm thinking that will be a rather quick and dirty fix.

the noir's look better. i think a red noir would similar to Rudas' forum. the green one looks similar to the layout of A Pagan forum. O_opacity looks completely different. sticking to purple noir.

My problem is that I like ALL of the new skins D installed and I'm going to have a lot of problems choosing just ONE to use as a default for myself... Especially after we get banners and possible backgrounds to match each one that we can!!

I may do a rotation... One for each day of the week!! Tongue

I'm liking opacity. It'll be even better when it doesn't have the default background I'm sure Smiley

Yeah, that one's cool Sita... We'll figure out what works best for that one and we'll let you and everyone else know when it's "finished". Wink

I'm currently using Black Noir and so far so good with my temperamental eyes. Of course, it being "me" I'm going to be checking out Red Noir when it's ready.
