if its a cross-breed type of thread just pick one you like most everyone here checks both forums anyways S

LOL Yeah-I missed that too S

I just tested this It removes images and smilies emebedded in the thread but NOT attached images Not sure yet about the max pic size(wxh) option-but it has been recently brought up to investigate a way to put a cap on it (if you post a really large pic, then rest of the thread requires you to use the horizontal scrolling bard to read the post S

When I turn the old boards back on please PM me so i don't forget S

In the first day we had over 400 people register. So far I've had to manually fix around 10 accounts. Not exactly sure why some emails are not getting sent if you do register and don't get a confirmation email within an hour, please let me know ss455@aol.com S

fixed thanks! S

Regularly cleaning out the test forum main reasons: #1) Less off topic posts=faster board #2) Reduce 'abuse' ie posting a picture here using our server resources to show the picture on another website S

1/72 7 1/60 8 1/48 2 G-you have 10 1/48s?? Jerk

Finding toy completists is relatively easy compared to finding someone who collects entire lines of model kits (at least in the Macross product universe) There are less than 25 variations of 1/55 products-expensive yes, but they can be found relatively easy. There are HUNDREDS of model kits. Looking in my MW Closet (which is packed to the ceiling) I think at last count I had over 600+. Missing less than 20 to have the entire 1982-1984 Imai/Nichimo/Arii releases. Of course that is over 20 years of collecting-it doesn't sound that bad if I say it like that. So how many others out there are model collectors? I've always wanted to setup a little 'trading' list of reliable members here where we could get our missing pieces from other people's doubles. Is there sufficient interest for something like this? Shawn who REAAAAAAAAALY enjoys having his own models only forum!

I don't know if its possible-that kit is just so damn small I was amazed how tiny it was when complete. Someone make a 1/72 or 1/48...come on! S

Woah there! Great job. When I first saw that kit I thought it was some resin verison I hadn't ever seen before. What parts did you use? You might want to also use some of the detail pictures Noel took from Wonderfest of the Yamato Quead for added fun

In your member profile simply choose "Upload" Just make sure the file type is .gif .jpeg .jpg .swf .png AND the pic size is 64x64 or less, or else you will get an error saying you can't upload it! Shawn

Go to My Controls at the top of the screen Now click Board settings at the bottom left Click NO for "Do you wish to view members signatures when reading threads?" Forums are clean again! This mod really increases the speed for dialup accounts (in addition to the other options in that section) Shawn

The only option I can find is this Use secure mail form for member to member mails? Hides users email addresses and it is set to YES Know if there is a Invision board option to allow the member to disable that button? Can't find one yet... S

The old forums will be up as long as Macross still holds my interest Been 20 years so far S

haven't gotten that far into the manual yet

There is a WONDERFUL feature in these boards go to My Controls up top Click Board options at bottom left Change "Do you wish to view members signatures when reading threads?" to NO bingo gone! I love it S p.s. of course I will periodically turn my sigs back ON so I see what crazy stuff some of you put in there...LOL

avatars can be directly uploaded-they do not need to be posted in a thread(in fact I discourage this as the test forum is going to be cleaned out ever other week or two) avatar requirements are: 64x64 pixel max gif,jpeg,jpg,swf,png file types S

The anime/sci fi section was born out of the requests for this 'catch all' area from a majority of members I've tried to keep the rest of the board on-topic but if something like this (or other forum ideas) are wanted I will consider S

Yes-I saw that option in the setup. Not sure exactly how it works-hope I don't have to find out for a long while....

Once Max gets on board, and if he still wants to be a moderator (hey-I don't assume ANYONE wants to have that sort of 'fun' again) we'll get some of unique icons from the old board S

Old board PMs will be available tomorrow night-nothing is lost Going to work on a custom 'post count' update script if possible-no guarantees but I'll see what I can do. Getting this place running has been my first priority S

if people come here to start trouble they will be banned just as they were in the other forums there is no need for this 'war' between MW and RT.com-its an absolute waste of time and does nothing but make people rethink wanting any part of the macross/robotech fandom S

I think this extra customization will be allowed only in the signature section for now S

right-willl get to this shortly oops S
