Message Board changes

I'm in the process of changing the message board so it will display upto 10 messages per page. Is this better? I'll add the ability for you to select the number of messages per page you would like individually soon.

Let me know what you think...

Much better !!!

.....with this board is that it never keeps you logged in. I always have to log in every time.

Apart from that it's great.

logins and pictures

It keeps me logged in for days, so perhaps it's your browser/cookies setting Bilko. However, it no longer highlights unread messages, they all seem to have been read even though I've hardly visited recently!

But definitely keep up the good work Mike.

BTW how do I upload pictures? You once mentioned some button for sending pics but I've never seen it...

unread messages

I've not changed that over yet. It relied on you clicking on every message (which you had to do before), but this doesn't have to happen now. So I'm going to make the unread messages work much more subtly, with the browsers own link visited link highlighting hopefully. I'll still link to new content since the last visit, but this will be on a user by user basis, not on a browser cookie, so you'll have to login for it to work.

Auto login is a bit hidden at the moment (if you click the login link on the left you can set auto-login) so I'll add this to the top login box soon.

10 per page

Used the auto login on the left menu and it keeps me logged in now. I always used the top before and never noticed the side log in.
