What's this new look?

Now I have "notifications" instead of "pm's". Does that mean nothing is private anymore?

The software that runs this forum was updated today to v 3.7.

Private messages are still private. In addition, you can leave public messages on user's profile pages now. You can also upload a photo album and join social groups. I expect an official announcement in the next couple days. There is still a few bugs to work out.

Somewhere along the way, my sigpic apparently went "byebye..." logged in today, and my sig started with [sigpic][/sigpic], and the tool for uploading the sig pic has apparently gone away.

Should be under: https://www.rx7club.com/profile.php?do=editsignature

If not, let me know. I can host your sig picture and then you can just use the image tags in your signature to display it.

I had an image loaded from when I first joined; it was still displaying until just before the update.

Even the options to upload it are no longer visible to me... no doubt because my signature privileges now read:

Allow Basic BB Code Yes
Allow Color BB Code Yes
Allow Size BB Code Yes
Allow Font BB Code Yes
Allow Alignment BB Code Yes
Allow List BB Code Yes
Allow Link BB Code Yes
Allow HTML No Allow Image BB Code Yes
Allow Code BB Code Yes
Allow PHP BB Code Yes
Allow HTML BB Code Yes
Allow Quote BB Code Yes
Allow Smilies Yes
Can Upload Images for Signature No
Can Upload Animated GIF for Signature No
Who'd I **** off?

Just wanted to say I've brought the issue up and it is being looked into. Feel free to PM me if you have any additional questions.

DD and Michael, I think Stu was poking around looking for my privates and he deleted your pm's and sigs by accident.

Once you figure out where to find things in "the new look" all seems to be well. Although I'm still not sure what to do with these new friends I've got.
