AD is the Hero of the day, i don't think there's nothing this guy can't do
with his computer.

And we have some new military smileys!!!
Too cool.

Tom and Dave are cooking up something special, but I don't want to ruin the surprise. Stay tuned!

Thanks guys,

I have resized the avatars and made them a little bigger, I have also made their New Post counterparts so you can tell we a forum has new posts added.


Cheers,
Dave

Ahh Heather,

I noticed this site doen't have any military "Female" Member avatars yet and thought of you, so I did some up and sent them to Jim O. (Forum Administrator)

So you hopefully will have a few female avatars to choose from soon.


Cheers,
Dave

OK guys, the new forum icons are up, including ones that distinguish whether a forum has new posts. Dave also made them all a bit larger at my request. You may need to refresh a few times before you see them, or do a shift+refresh to force a complete refresh of cached files.

Thanks again Dave. They are fantastic!

I'm a little confused by these (yeah i know not hard to do) but i've noticed
that alot of them have a big red excalmation. No matter if its a thread i've never visted or one that i just posted or visited?

If there are still unread posts in a forum that you haven't yet read (say in a thread that you did not visit within that forum) then it will show up with the exclamation. You should not see the exclamation if you have visited all of the pages of all of the threads in that forum.

There are three ways get rid of the exclamation:

1. Read all of the threads in the forum
2. Double click the icon with the exclamation
3. Use the "Mark Forums Read" option in the "Quick Links"

This is the same as it was, just that previously it was a red () or a yellow () triangle.

Functionally nothing has changed. Only the forum icons have changed.

I hope this helps.

A little messy, but I think once I get used to it, it'll look nicer...

I didn't mind the arrows before :P
