Sparky,

WOW! I really like the new "LOOK!" The You Tube video posting is a great addition. Maybe I'll learn how to do it. Nah!

See if I can drop a photo in. Looked like they were gone a bit back.

Sparky, are you in the AMA Hall of Fame?

The post button just popped up. It was not there earlier. Looks like all is good now.

Allan Perret · « **Reply #11 on:** June 29, 2017, 05:50:51 PM »

Webpage not using the full screen width available, think it was before. Can that be reset ?

Update on this. I clicked on "Reading View" icon, then clicked a second time to come back to std view and now the webpage is back to using the full width..

"Modify" feature working.

Yah but the server did so we had to come up to date

Gerald Arana · « **Reply #16 on:** June 29, 2017, 06:18:52 PM »

So why does it have to be changed?

Have you ever heard the Oooold saying "If it ain't broken, don't fix it"?

Just my 2 cents worth.

It's pretty close. I hate fixing things but this was broken and needed to be fixed

Paul,
How is the P47 working for you? I'm building one of Billy's also, but mine will be a slimmer of course with a PA75.

I would be very interested in your comments.

Randy Cuberly

Sparky,
PS: The new system seems slick and faster than the old one! Is that because of better compatibility with the server.

Yes, they updated the server and it was updated with PHP7 and it threw our old code into a tail spin. All code has been updated with an SSL cert (padlock top of URL address bar) It has made a huge difference in Hobby orders from overseas.

While all info here has been secure on this forum in the past. It is now 128 bit encrypted and totally secured, that is until the next 12-year-old kid writes some code to bypass it.

Test to see if attachments are any easier (pre view)

No soap still can not see the attachment in the preview

Oh well the site looks fine and works for me

Thanks Robert

Dick Pacini · « **Reply #37 on:** June 30, 2017, 10:10:12 AM »

I am going to guess that the new server is perhaps a better financial deal than the previous one. If so, Sparky is looking out for us.

RC Storick · « **Reply #38 on:** June 30, 2017, 10:19:24 AM »

We are still on the same server box we have been on for 11 years. It never gets cheaper as it grows is only costs more.

Can you give me an example of exactly of the issue you would like addressed?

Me likee the green...blue not so much. Oh, it's a fine color and all, but the green seemed easier to see or something...for me.

Steve

PS: I posted the picture...not because of the "color", but FYI...little known fact from WWI. Also, I am curious to see if the photo title will show, as it previously did. I hope so.

I have not got to that mod yet. It has already been 40hrs work and it may take 40 more.

Steve Helmick · « **Reply #42 on:** June 30, 2017, 11:42:40 AM »

Background color selection usta be our choice. I don't recall what the color options were. When I went to SH before, if it was green background, I knew I was logged in. If it was blue background, I knew I was logged out, due to a glitch or something.

What are those red blocks just above the avatar? Some people have more than others, some have none.

They use to be stars now red blocks it show about how many posts you have made and forum rank
