Ok thanks! I will put Tel Aviv in The Asia section, since technically that part of the Middle East is considered Asia

[natehate]

can we make it so members area doesnt get highlited when someone posts in the child boards of it?

[Seul]

Pet peeve of mine as well…

[xtcclassic]

Here's an idea (and I haven't read the whole thread to see if it's been discussed, so apologies if it has)– what if there was an option in every item-specific thread to view a pics-only version of the thread? Something that eliminated all text from the thread, so you could just browse the pics that had been posted.

[trail and arrow]

i had the same thought.

Styleforum has something similar. There's a gallery on the right side that you can see all of the images in that thread. Really great feature.

Sounds really great, will start working on it immediately.

shoque: you're nothing short of a fuckin hero.

This is true.  Without him, this whole place would come crashing down.

[grandmasterben]

Thanks shoque and xtc!!! Super super good idea.

OK, so:

Check out the slideshow button. 

But of course this is just the very first draft of the function, so what is currently wrong:
- For some reason, some pics get displayed multiple times

• Quotes cause slideshow-duplicates, will remove them.
• Some pics are missing (I know what the bug is, will fix very soon)
• Smileys/random other non-product pics are included if they are not the regular ones offered by the forum theme (won't fix, they are just posted pics, is that alright for you guys?)
• This thing is resource-intensive, if you experience slowdowns please let me know. If you are on an old computer I would not be surprised if your browser crashed.

I have alot going on at Uni at the moment, it would be quite helpful if you guys helped me do my debugging-work. Once we have a list of what is not working, I will fix one by one.

^^gotta love this guy

[PSB]

The slideshow thing is awesome!

[shoque]

Cool, glad you like it. Btw, please do a force refresh in your browser to make sure all the JS-libs are loaded properly.

Oh, and mousewheel scrolling is supported for supersmooth browsing of the thread pics.

Yes!

[ohighyo]

Bring adam313 back. That's my forum suggestion. Seems like the decision was a personal one and not a rational one.

[mclaincausey]

Even though he got kicked for being a dick to me I'd love him back. I think his "calmer than you are" was meant to be in jest and I love a Lebowski reference, and I also think things were winding down.

[seanocono]

Unfortunately, I don't think he's coming back.

[ohighyo]

I wouldn't either, but I support him, and you can tell him that. I think what he said was blown out of proportion. I cant wait to call some people out the next time "they are dicks" with their snobby little quips, but don't think they are being one. Hypocrites!
