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

What will become of the old Macrossworld Forums?
Shawn replied to UN Spacy's topic in MW Site News & Member Feedback
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
-
Reviews Section, are they for Macross only?
Shawn replied to GDomino's topic in MW Site News & Member Feedback
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....

What the hell is this supposed to be!!!????
Shawn replied to Agent ONE's topic in MW Site News & Member Feedback
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

Security to keep the Yo-Yos out
Shawn replied to Agent ONE's topic in MW Site News & Member Feedback
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

Did we lose the PMs from the old board?
Shawn replied to Diverdown's topic in MW Site News & Member Feedback
All your PMs will be available tomorrow night when I active the old boards nothing was lost-don't worry S -
Licensing debate thread?
Shawn replied to the white drew carey's topic in MW Site News & Member Feedback
I agree that we need a 'container' for this discussion so it does not pollute the rest of the board. it never dies - just look at the old google archives-same fights for the last 10 years of posts S -
Just tested it-worked for me we only allow pics with the following extensions gif,jpeg,jpg,png let me know if you still get the problem after using one of these types thanks! Shawn

Wow- 400 membership sign ups in the one day we are back-thank you The board is humming along pretty good-79 people online and no speed problems at all. Thanks for everyone's feedback so far S

I updated the links from the main MW last night-hit refresh to load the new links
-
I'm going on a crash 'Skins' course this weekend http://www.ibplanet.com/ Members are VERY WELCOME to throw out some ideas. Wonder if I could get Gaoquel to do it...LOL S
-
Glad to see the damn thing still running when I woke up About the Other Anime section-I simply forgot to add it...DONE In each of your profiles there are two fields- 1) Old MW Name 2) Old MW Post Count If you are migrating from the original board can you please fill those out? I will get those stats updated for you over the next 2 weeks. Thanks! Shawn

Hello everyone! Yes-we are finally back! First off the updates Old - Celeron 1.3Mhz 512MB ram New - Pentium 4 2.0Ghz 1GB ram Old - Ikonboard 3 (DBM-which we just plain killed) New - Invision Board 1.2 (MySql and Php-which is what we should have been 2 years ago) The good: The new forums should be able to handle our load The bad: There is just no way in hell to transfer all the info from the old boards. I've been trying for 2 weeks now to upgrade our IB to MySQL. The DBM files were just too damn big. Even when I had the server entirely to myself it would constantly time out on every procedure. Resigned myself to simply ditch the message transfer and go for a member only migration. 3700+ registered members killed this migration too. The upgrade software/methods just cannot deal with something so bloated (I don't blame the Ikonboard software at all-its been a great 2 years! All the trouble has been entirely my fault because I rode the DBM wagon much too long) So here we are. New boards, fresh members. I guess now is the time for all of you who wanted to change your screen name to do so. LOL We are going to indefinitely keep the old IB forums online (link below). You can gather important PM's or browse old posts at your leisure. I'm going to be bringing some of our very first posts back online in that forum(I have backups from the beginning). It will be our version of http://www.archive.org/ I'll turn the old boards back online on Friday evening(aug 22nd)-I want to monitor the server logs without the IB overhead right now. http://www.macrossworld.com/cgi-bin/mwf/ikonboard.cgi One more item-I'll add our "Macross" skin sometime this weekend. For those people who are really motivated and really bored, send me some skin designs I can use!! http://www.ibplanet.com/ Thanks again for all your patience in this move-I hope everyone has a lot of fun here! BTW: If you encounter and problems with the board (ie BUGS!! ) please email me ss455@aol.com asap so I can address them. Mods-please email me so I can re-establish your permissions (assuming you still want the JOBS! B) ) Best, Shawn
