    I got here for the first time with a search engine, and I remember my search words: BG2+mods; that's took me to this forum.
    By the way, nice work with this little box, you know, there are people who has very slow connection (such as me) and this is very handy.

    Blog, if you're logged in, you should show. Try refreshing the page. Also, you need to have Javascript enabled for this to work.

    Earl Grey, the borders are on all sides, I can see them pretty clearly.

    As for search engines, they crawled some pages before, but only a tiny fraction.

    It's probably my monitor. It's too dark and I plan on getting a new one soon.

    I can now vaguely see the upper and left border when I max the screen settings and squint real hard with my eyes. :)

    Anyone remember the case Sun vs. Microsoft: using copyrighted material in IE? Guess what; most browsers do not have the more 'detailed' Java-script support anymore, it requiring separate installation from Sun. Have you thought of making the chat-rooms work in PHP? :hmm:

    PHP Chatrooms are horrid. Period.
    Edit: I think most of these features come built in with VBulletin I think it is, or if not that then phpBB which = free :)

    Which doesn't help us any, considering there aren't any decent UBB importers for phpBB. And the only one I'm interested in switching to is vB anyway.

    Wow. SP is even cooler than it allready was - the online/offline thing, the Quickreply box - the new frontpage design. Kudos the Sorcerer man - spot on.
    :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:
    BTW one little question - just when is one defined as on- or offline?

    You are considered to be online when you are on the boards, logged in, and showing on the Recent Visitors page (users who choose to be hidden there are always shown as offline). Even after you leave the boards though, the online period lingers a bit, depending on the board setting.

    Ah, that's why. I chose to be hidden from the Recent Visitors Page.

    Just noticed another cool feature: you could type half your reply in the quick reply, go into full reply mode and what you've written so far is still there!

    Yep, everything you write in the quick reply box is saved after you switch to the full reply form. Handy for when you remember you really need to add that posting icon.
