Just updated the board software from version 7.0 to 7.4. For the curious, here's a list of what's new. Let me know if something doesn't work. Thanks.

Yow--what is a Use link and what are Saved Queries ?

And, please, where is the showmembers page ? I really miss that.

Edit: sorry, olly--I can't help you with that.

Uh-oh: I just tried to send doc comfort a PM, and got: "doc_comfort is over their Private Topic limit." Same for twosleepy, latishya, and Faldage.

"blaaskaak's mod"
Found in text about the newest changes.

Blaaskaak is a Dutch wordt that means someone who brags, a puffed up person.

strange, but the style chooser is now down at the bottom next to the "mark all read" link.

give me a couple of days, and I'll see how I like the new stuff! :¬ )

Yeah, and the smiley menu is now all the way to the left, and there's something called a media tag, whatever that is.

And, I saw that blaaskaak is one of the participants in that software stuff; wonder if he's Dutch?

What do you mean Jackiebean? There is no such word in any other language so:

Don’t blame it on the sunshine
Don’t blame it on the moonlight
Don’t blame it on the good times
Blame it on the blaaskaak!

(literally it means blowjaw)
(but this only seems to have to do with today's birthday stuff.) )

You've personally checked the other 7000 or so languages to be able to state this with such certainty? smirk

I only have three private messages and I'm over my total? Also, where did you see the "Use List", "Saved Queries" and 'Media" things you mentioned? Are they Admin-only goodies? Like Olly, I can't view users' profiles either.
