The blue envelope, means you've read all the posts in the thread. The yellow envelope with stuff sticking out means there are new posts you haven't read. When the little white arrow is present it means you have posted in that thread, and if you mouse over it, it will display how many posts and last posting time and stuff.

Links in messages are set by default to open in a new window. If someone puts their own HTML in, through, I'm not sure what happens.

Happy Monkey · 05-26-2005, 06:40 PM

I sometimes do my own HTML if I don't want to "Go Advanced" to put in a link.

On that note, would it be difficult to put the "Link" button in the Quick Reply box?

BigV · 05-26-2005, 07:15 PM

Thank you.

While you're receiving petitions, I would like a new font, something (anything normal looking) that is in strikeout, you know with the horizontal line through all the letters....

Thanks for listening...

<strike>Strike is actually an HTML code</strike>

Surround words with <strike> and </strike> to do that.

Undertoad · 05-26-2005, 08:03 PM

I'll look for that for the quick reply hm. I don't remember if it's easy to do...

The blue envelope can't mean that I've read all the posts in a thread, because I've never even been to the sports forums, but the threads there show me blue sealed envelopes.
Also, threads that I remember looking at ALSO show me blue envelopes.

And the yellow envelope with stuff sticking out is being displayed on posts I've never read. (Maybe that symbol just means "recent posts" regardless of whether I've ever read it or not.)

The only one that makes sense to me are the ones with white arrows- those mean I've posted. Besides those, I still don't get it...

Blue envelopes means there have been no new posts in a thread since your last visit.

Everything is relative to your last visit.

I'm not looking at the answer key ... but often the color of the icon relates to the busy-ness of the topic ... lots of replies gets the color change.

UT. How about the PM deal not putting a copy in the sent folder by default? I'm too dumb to uncheck it and can't see the opition till I scroll down. which is too late.

busterb · 05-28-2005, 08:33 PM

Bitch, bitch and bitch

Happy Monkey · 05-31-2005, 12:33 PM

UT, what's the "GuestMap" link at the bottom of the page?

lookout123 · 05-31-2005, 01:28 PM

that is where some of us, put little faces on our geographical locations, isn't it?

oops, sorry, i posted before i looked. i was wrong, so feel free to ignore another one of L123's posts - if it isn't habitual already.
