... ... All these smilies to this post were added in honor of BW being a member here. Speaking of smileys, you should see all the smileys we use on the SMUT boar... oh wait, you can't, cause you're not a member. I guess you only join boards if they will make you a moderator Oh, BTW, I'm JOKING, so you can spare me the houdinicdote about how you joined here before you became a mod, etc, etc. I know, I know! I did know you were joking, but it's true that I joined first. See that wasn't long. And why don't you post under your account?

Hi, just wanted to let you know I've registered. Let me know if I can help with anything, and of course, you're welcome to any codes I have on my site. Good luck with this. It is really a bit daunting at first, but after awhile it gets easier. ThatGirl, you're the Master of Proboards, 'far as I'm concerned. We got so much, and learned so much, about coding in proboards from your very kind help.

You can steal borrow code from any of the boards I admin if you like it (eg, the spoiler tag). How do I get access to the spoiler tag?
I have another question. I want to put up images for avatars as defaults, but the images are HUGE! Even when I resize them to avatar size in photobucket. Any advice?
First, here's is the ULTIMATE ProBoards coding list over on the support board: support.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=codedatabase&action=display&n=1&thread=1117970613The spoiler tag is there. And, have you tried using an image editing program to shrink down those pics? (IrfanView works great!) I've found that resizing images using UBB code is mind boggling/non-existent so I just shrink the image do to avatar size, then upload it. Saves lots of headaches, lemme tell ya.

The link Lauren gave goes to a master list, but here's the quick link to just the spoiler code: support.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=codedatabase&action=display&n=1&thread=1124058926Or, I can copy/paste it from Culpalicious for you, jo. As for the avatar conundrum, what I do is save images at 200x200, then go to MS Paint, Image, Stretch/Skew, then put in 50 and 50 into the boxes that appear, to reduce them 50% to make them 100x100/avatar size. BTW, that link from Lauren is AWESOME and I'm going to save it and go 'sploring. Lots of great looking "hacks" in there, as they call it (gotta sound techno-geek after all, I guess).

Thanks guys. I am really new to this. And code? What the heck is that?
I thought this would be a good option - for placing rants and raves. But I still can't get it to work yet. Let me see what I can do.
EEP!!

Well, as a forum admin, Lauren, you should just set up an account there and that way you won't have to rely on just the links. You can go peruse around and get questions and such answered...and if necessary, things like graphics and such made.

Ok. Ok. It's official. I have no idea how to do this. The code I found on support? Nothing. The code from the Culp/Smut boards? Nothing. I give up for now....
I'll try again some other time..

It might be because you put it in the wrong place, you know.

Uh, yeah. That's the point. If I knew what the right place was, and how to do it, I wouldn't be saying I didn't do it right...

Am I being TOO obvious again? You can ask where to put it so the codes work if you cannot figure it out...that way, you CAN get it up...oh, did I say that?

When you say get it up, do you mean the spoiler tag? 'Cause it's up.
I was trying to help Jo figure out the little conundrum of the text-insertion crossbar turning into a pointer-hand thingie instead in the PM dialogue box, but still haven't figured out what's causing it.

I will eventually go over to support, but right now it is a bit overwhelming. There are like 37 THOUSAND members there. Who the heck is going to read my post anyway?
Seriously, when I get some time I will.

Seriously, when I get some time I will. Simple: Go to SUPPORT and post a new thread. They have people that are paid to read them and support volunteers that help. You usually get some help within a few hours, unless it is a hard question to answer, then it might be a day or so.

Has anyone been having other problems with this forum that I should know about?
