Alexander Turcic 03-13-2003, 12:51 PM ---Update, April 13th---
- A light skin is now installed. If you like to use it or another Skin, go to:
User CP/Options/Style Set.
Available Skin sets:
Ekko, Ekkolite (low gfx), Nexus (dark), Plexik (light).
- Guest Posting *is* enabled
- Quick Reply is enabled
- You can turn email notification off by default in your User CP/Options
- You can now rate individual threads (good-bad).
- Board statistics can be viewed now at http://www.turcic.com/forums/vbstats.php
EDIT: Removed to increase forum speed.
- Topic threads can now be downloaded.
- Around 400 Avatars to choose from next to the option to upload your own Avatar. Do it here (http://www.turcic.com/forums/member.php?s=&action=editavatar).
- Internal links (from old boardsoftware) are finally fixed!!
- Away feature in User CP / Profile
---Update End---
It is my personal odyssee....
First Ikonboard...
Then Invisionboard...
And now (and hopefully finally) VBulletin!
The conversion from Invisionboard to VBulletin was a pain. But it is almost done.
You will notice that Attachments (including images) are still missing. They will be added shortly.
Also functionality is basic still. Customization will be done shortly.
If you have any problems, please post them here!

Alexander Turcic 03-13-2003, 12:57 PM Avatars and other goodies will be added SHORTLY! :)
sUnShInE 03-13-2003, 02:00 PM This looks surprisingly familiar.... :)
FYI: I usually go to Turcic.com first and check what the latest posts are quickly. It's coming up with an error.
So far, I'm diggin it. :D
Alexander Turcic 03-13-2003, 03:19 PM Ok, attachments are all added now.
Another thing: Links to other parts of the forum are not right yet. They all point to parts of the old forum software which is non-existant anymore. We will fix those link issues over time, in the meantime use the search feature instead!!

Hehe keep diggin :)
The front page, turcic.com, must be redone in order to work with the new forum. Since I am thinking of completely redoing the other parts of turcic.com, it will take some time for this feature to work again.
sUnShInE 03-13-2003, 03:50 PM um. i, like, got an email saying that you had replied to my post.
please tell me that's temporary. (lie if you must)
btw, since when are you from switzerland? ;)
signed,
SUPERmod :D
Alexander Turcic 03-13-2003, 04:20 PM Sunshine,
you can turn that email notification thing off by default in your User CP under Options.
I've been from Switzerland for... uhm... quite some time :) What did you think I was from? :p
Alexander Turcic 03-13-2003, 05:00 PM If you find the default skin ugly or too slow, you can always change your skin preferences in User CP -> Options.
extraction 03-13-2003, 07:58 PM Wow !!!
Nice interface, I can see why you've been busy.
Are you planning on having the ranking system still?
BTW thought you were from Croatia
:cool:
Alexander Turcic 03-14-2003, 01:59 AM Yup a ranking system will be incorporated again. A nicer one than the previous even.
Heh, about Croatia. Yes, I have also my roots there. Dubrovnik to be exact. I am spending my summers there.
Alexander Turcic 03-14-2003, 09:01 AM I enabled Guest Posting.
Yet, it is still worth to register. See here (http://www.turcic.com/forums/announcement.php?s=&forumid=4) why.
Alexander Turcic 03-16-2003, 11:27 AM A light skin is now installed. I think some people prefer light to dark. You can always go to your User CP and change the Style Set under Options.

Alexander Turcic 03-17-2003, 03:25 PM Quick Reply is now installed.

Thanks for pointing out the low size limit - I now increased it.
Avatars are working, however, I haven't installed any yet. That will happen soon.
Alexander Turcic 03-19-2003, 03:31 AM I integrated a board stats feature. You can see it here:
http://www.turcic.com/forums/vbstats.php General Stats
http://www.turcic.com/forums/vbstats.php?action=topthreads Top Viewed/Replied/Forums
http://www.turcic.com/forums/vbstats.php?action=topposters Top Posters Ever/This Month/Today
Please note the relatively low user level of activitiy. I hope some of you will want to post more here in future :)
EDIT: stats is off again to increase forum speed.
Alexander Turcic 03-19-2003, 07:46 PM Added: Topic threads are now downloadable as text files.
Alexander Turcic 03-20-2003, 03:10 PM Added: Huge list of Avatars. Please pick one for yourself to make this board a bit more colorful :)
You can do it here (http://www.turcic.com/forums/member.php?s=&action=editavatar).
RockerChick 03-20-2003, 07:16 PM WOW! The new forum looks awesome! LOVE IT!!
Alexander Turcic 03-21-2003, 11:11 AM Thanks :)
We try our best!

So internal links are fixed.
That means: The conversion from the old forumsoftware is 100% complete and went without severe complications :D
Alexander Turcic 03-27-2003, 03:59 PM Changed the forum code.
Now, when you do new posts, vBcode and smilies will be inserted wherever the cursor is, instead of at the end of the text.
Btw, you can also use ALT+B for bold, ALT+I for italic, etc....
PS: If something doesnt work right for you in this respect, as the code changes involve are more complex, please send me a quick message.
Alexander Turcic 04-13-2003, 03:20 PM You can now set yourself on "away" by specifying an away reason and a return date in your User CP / Profile.
