I'm running into a glitch whenever i try to post a thread. Whenever i press the preview button it erases all my content and makes me have to retype it all again.

Same here, If I go into Edit Post, the content is gone. Also just now when I hit post comment it asked if I wanted to leave the page, then when I added this and hit save it just sets there like I didn't hit save. Had to go into advanced edit.

I am still having trouble when I try to post. I actually thought I had listed my problem in my previous post, but it somehow got erased...

Anyways, whenever I try to post in a thread, it says I have to wait 5 seconds before posting again (even though I didn't). Then when I wait the 5 seconds and click post it double posts. Then I have to go in and edit it. When I click save after editing, the page doesn't do anything. But when I refresh the edit is in effect... Anyone else having this issue?

yes. and my last page was posted twice. and when I edited to take out the double posting thing, I clicked on save.... and it does nothing. not in the browser, but it seems that the forum system accepted my "save" order, but the window continue to look like if it was edited.

I am just asking if this happened with you guys too.

The site used to be white for me, and I think the FFshrine logo was different. Now it is the old version. Dark blue.
Anyone else has this issue?

it's not really an issue. I am just pointing these things that I notice.
Though I dislike it a bit, because I was making my threads with colors and all to blend with the white..., and now, everything is too dark :(

orie: on the very bottom left you should be able to switch between themes. one is white, the other is dark.

I prefer white just because I the white view lights my keyboard and room. xD

With an update settings might have been reset for whatever reason. Have you tried going to your control panel under My Settings in General Settings. You’ll see Messages & Notifications go to Default Thread Subscriptions Mode and choose your preferred setting. If it’s correctly set change it and confirm and then change it back and confirm this MIGHT kick start that setting back to normal.

That's if you haven't tried it yet.

Zero hurries from my side with the technical problems, but I'd like to know about this too. If I'm not wrong, the previous default theme had near-white background and it seems it has changed to dark, as it was shown that way before I logged in. It's no problem to adjust a personal setting but for those of us that have used some colors it's important to know what's the default theme, as that's how unregistered users and most of the registered ones will see the posts. Is that going to change to dark?

Didn't work, unfortunately... I changed it once, logged out, logged in again, changed it again and nothing was emailed to me today...

I mean, everything is alright if I see it in here. The problem is that the newly created threads and the updated threads are listed together, separated by a "last post" index, while the email first listed the newly created threads and then the updated threads in another list, which makes it much easier to see...

Those are reputation points. We sometimes call them Jolly Ranchers. :) There is really no advantage, just a game to collect, mostly.

today,trying to post a new thread again,no matter what i do,i get hindered.the cover photo of the cd is 50kb too large,and that�s it.nobody�s telling me,how to reduce the size of the pic.it�s like going to boarding school,you continuously get told what you�re not supposed to do,but nobody tells you how to do it right.so i keep on downloading,occasionally,and don�t give back anything.fine with me.

When you upload a photo from URL, you have to unclick "Retrieve remote file and reference locally".

Oh, do you want to be patted on the back for such decision? Okay.

I've never encountered such message myself, but have you tried reducing the filesize with an image-editing software like Photoshop or GIMP... And then using image-hosting services provided by websites such as ImageShack, Photobucket, to show the image on this board?

EDIT:
Seems Petros already gave you an "easier" solution. Whatever.

i tried to upload from the desktop,no dice.then i reduced the size of the picture in mail.still too large.i uploaded the photo to imgur and tried all the url options.nope.now i shall try photoshop,because i don�t really get what you�re saying.i only understand the world in screenshots.

Read here for more detail on how to insert remote images. Make sure your URL is for the real image file -not a preview page- and use the simplest form for now.
