    Find the New Features!

    I'm not completely done with the upgrade yet, but at least I can open the forums now.

    How many new features can you find? :D

    Idea

    How nice it is to rest your pointer over the thread name, and get the first few lines of text. Now you can preview a thread to see if it is relevant to you :)

    Has anyone tried to attach a photo yet?

    When you do, you will find how much easier it is and also, that it appears within your post as a thumbnail. Please don't try it in this thread, go over to the test forum and try it out there.

    Hey! I was just trying to familiarize myself further with the features of the new forum and noticed "Threaded View" as an option. The result is something that looks like the "original" OptiBoard- very cool!

    Also, I've been using the old "[]" commands and now I see you can just edit text like you would in Word.

    Shazam- we're movin' on up to a nicer neighborhood!

    If you have 50 posts and have been a member for 60 days....

    If you have 50 posts and have been a member for at least 60 days, you have an option you may not have noticed yet. Because members are supposed to be finding this out for themselves.....I have not been given permission to tell you what it is......BUT I have been allowed to give you a hint.

    Click on my public profile and look at it. Then click on your own and see whats different.Then try to find the tool that allows you to do what I did! Good luck!

    When you've done it, report to us back here so we can take a peek!.

    I find the reputation feature very interesting...
