Message Board Upgrade

StangFlyer · 06-26-1999, 01:52 AM

You'll all notice that we have upgraded from version 3.7 to 3.8b of the message board system. This system has several improvements, including a new ICON system. When you post a message, you will now be able to select an icon that you would like to use to label your post with. This allows you to convey a little about the purpose of your message. For example, if you are posting a question, you can tag it with the "?" icon. Just a neato little feature.. Other improvements have more to do with functionality of administrative features.

Enjoy!

dan,

i just happened to be looking at the ls1.com message board, and they can actually insert pictures in thier message board. Is this feaseable for us???

StangFlyer · 06-28-1999, 08:10 AM

Yes, it is. Along with doing HTML in your message, but I have both inline images and HTML turned off. It has been my experience that when you give users the ability to do either of those things, it quickly gets out of hand... Soon, probably within the next month, the Mustangs of the Internet will finally come back online. And, then everyone will be able to add their Mustang specs and pictures there.

I like the new format and I wanna know where I can get a T-shirt with that caricature of the red Mustang on it. I love that thing. Keep up the great work. And it's running MUCH faster tonight.

That is actually the new design that we will be using for our t-shirts! Good guess.. We should have some done and on the site for sale in the next couple months.
