Re: si-community wishlist
Some of our subforums are intentionally vaguely named: The description of our "Softimage Mod Tool" forum is "Topics related to game developing" and one would imagine/hope not only Mod Tool issues but also other (true?) game development issues, insofar they aren't directly "Programming" related that is, would find their way there...

Maybe 153,0,0 [#990000]. Something similar is already being displayed at the top as a gallery outline [on FF at least]. Or maybe #006699... I dont think people care much about what color it is, as long as its readable.Hirazi Blue wrote:Please provide one or more colors in good old-fashioned RGB values, so we can eventually put it to a vote...

Re: si-community wishlist
Thanks for the thorough examples...
Now we're gonna have to put it to the vote. ;)
I'll open a voting thread... Go there now

Re: si-community wishlist
in light of a recent discussion regarding a centralized location for all ICE compounds, I remember from the old SI website in the compounds download section there was a decent sized thumbnail with the description - similar to what Rray.de has, as we are visually orientated people I found it easier to remember the compound by its image rather than its name - is there any chance of a thumbnail alongside the title in the ICE downloads section here on this site.? also.. pictures just look better!

Re: si-community wishlist
That would be nice, I think we'd all agree, but would require quite a big modification of the current forum software. So it will probably never happen. Owei decided, rightfully so IMHO, a while back not to use any new "phpBB mods" any more for stability's sake and recoding the download section by hand would simply require way too much time (and wouldn't guarantee continued stability either)

Code: Select all
A little wish would be for this font to be a little larger in the default setting
Code: Select all
this would be better(code tag wrapped in size=110 tag)
Code: Select all
This looks the best imho (120) but not so good for long code lines, so better choice would be 110
(FF 4.0)

Re: si-community wishlist
I will look into it, although the code tag is a predefined bbcode
that comes with the phpbb software
so I don't know if it's possible & how I can change it...
But like I said: I will look into it. ;)
edit: I seem to have figured it out. It was obviously (otherwise I wouldn't have figured it out so quickly) way easier than I originally thought. Now we'll have to discuss the "necessity" of such a change (and ask Owei), before I can commit it to the community software... The test I ran on my "secret" local community seemed to show, it might be a good idea to change font also, when you do change the font size... (But that's easy, now that I've figured it out...)

Re: si-community wishlist
I'd love to read replies to subscribed threads, directly from the email notification.
Or did I miss something in the settings?
Thank you.

Re: si-community wishlist
It would be possible to implement, but I doubt we will... ;)
BTW: Getting the text of the reply into the mail is possible/relatively easy,
getting the name of the person who replied strangely enough isn't...

Lol Hirazi, you sound like AutodeskHirazi Blue wrote:So this is very much a “wishlist” and not a promise for future changes
Ok, this guy outdid youNizar wrote:In any case you can add somewhere a viewcube
Now, my wish...
Call me stupid, but I never really paid any attention to those two links "View unanswered posts | View active topics". (and I would like to if I knew what they were about)
I think a little list with the recent activity (like the one on XSIbase's front page) would be much better, if not possible, could this two be made more visible?

Re: si-community wishlist
The "View unanswered posts" is a good place to start, if you really really really want to do a good deed and answer a question no matter what... No seriously, I hardly use it all.
Personally I have the "View active topics" on my first bookmark of the si-community, i.e. I use that page as my personal "de facto" frontpage. Changing the "View active topics" into something more usable (as in "View active POSTS") would be nice, but lacking the time and skill to dig deep into the php of the forum software I doubt this will be possible
(Partly because we can't/don't want to implement phpBB-addons any more, for various reasons).
And, again personally, I don't like the whole "frontpage" idea, like the XSIBase has, all that much. I have the XSIBase bookmarked at http://www.xsibase.com/forum/. Problematic about "frontpages" is that they need to be separately maintained.

Re: si-community wishlist
would it be to hard to implement auto-resizing of images like in some other forums out there?
I love to see people sending big images, full of details, but they do seem to disrupt browsing... Auto-resizing is a good alternative, cause you can always click the image to see all the details...

Me too. For si-community, I bookmarked active topics, and for xsibase, I bookmarked http://www.xsibase.com/forum/index.php?action=recentHirazi Blue wrote:Personally I have the "View active topics" on my first bookmark of the si-community, i.e. I use that page as my personal "de facto" frontpage.

To answer your initial question: I have no idea, but I will look into it (soonish)! ;)gustavoeb wrote:would it be to hard to implement auto-resizing of images like in some other forums out there?
