Wow! this is pretty neat. I like it.

Piranha · #4 August 13, 2004, 06:38 PM

Is there any way of putting the "post reply" button at the bottom of the reply box? I dont like scrolling to reach the button. Or is it only me with a small screen facing this problem?

Reply button is on the right of the box at the bottom. You don't have to scroll up.

Quick reply feature at the bottom of every thread is a cool feature. It will save time and keystrokes while posting replies. The new look is quite neat. A great job by the administrator(s).

Hey Raj bhai!

I gotta say its a decent upgrade, just only one thing I don't like is that line below the member ranking. Rest is terrific!

Nice! nice! Especially this reply box. And also the absence of Post Reply button while not logged in. I have lost so many big posts (in delight of many) after posting without logging in. Great going!

What are the differences apart from the quick reply and the pictures next to the options up the top. I have noticed the quote box is different too. Are there any other differences.

Since you guys are so quick in response to fix a bug (admirable), I had one to point out. Though now in this new version, you cannot see the post reply button without being logged in, you can still see the "quote" button, and you can click that to start editing a reply. Once you are done, you can post your reply only to see that you were not logged in and hence not authorized to send a reply and lose whatever you have edited so far. I think it would be helpful if one was taken to the login page, whenever one tries to edit some post, original or reply (Or any other get around).

nihi

Prepare your long posts in a text editor (e.g.notepad )and post it to this forum by copying and pasting from notepad. That way you will not lose your long posts .....(to the dismay of many):P
