this message is to [#username] so I have added a new feature on here.
Puts the name of the person that is reading this including [#username] !!!
What do you think of this new feature of Direct Fun ?
it is pretty neat isn't it.
I wrote this message especially for you {#username]
Now how is this done?
Read On #username and you will find out!!
Put brackets around the [#username] like you would a link or image.
When you add someone to a message you would have to type his/her name. Well now if you put
[#username] in place of someones name then that name will appear in the messge no matter who is reading it.
Ok [#username] Now what do you think about it ?

Aloha..!!
Yes I can actually be awake this early, given preperation time... (usually sleep 4am - 4pm) Oh well ... The Move code is very cool ... I know how to use it ... I want to install it on a couple of other forums that I work on... Can you email me the code and tell me where to install it .... Also We use the [forum member] thing at LCG .... can you send that code with instructions too..?? Finally Flash, when I try to go to the general forum I get an error message "site can not be opened by internet explorer, And then get kicked off..??
Aloha..!!

don't know what could be wrong with the General Section? Unless it is the last code I put in there on the [#username] {#username} I added it last night about 9 pm. I hope that is it. Please tell me if that corrects the problem.
Bessss's waiting for your reply...

Aloha..!!
Still not working, I get in by reading your most recent posts ... I will eventually figure it out.... The Move code and the Member # code work great... My time online today / tomorrow is short ... My maid (personal Assistant) takes me to the grocery store and insists on getting here at the ungodly hour of 10am ... So I have to sleep early tonight... and I'll be tired all day...
Aloha..!!

i've got a ton of advice to offer you. 1. THIS FORUM IS WAY TO BIG shrink the text to size '2' , and make the width 850 pixels max. this is insane. 2. Chat Box. www.cbox.ws register, make a chat box, and put it at the bottom of the page. you can customize sizes fonts, and colors. 3. No images on forum boards, only in posts or profiles. they are too annoying, 1 board takes up my entire screen. 4. Top rule box. Too annoying, every time i have to scroll down to see something. Make it smaller or remove it. Look at my forum for example, all of the factors above are at a good level. Lemme know if you need anymore advice.

They are my Affiliates. The Text is big as I have members on here that can't see good and the large text will let them Read the Posts easier!!! Besides Keep in mind that this is a General Forum for adult type sujects not a Gamers Forum. As for as Registering the Chat box. I have this Forum to Make Money as I am Retired and on a fixed income. I can' t afford to Register the chat box with $XX a month ! Oh, yea, if you think this forum is Large now !! Wail till I get it finished. There will be at least 10 More boards going up and it will be Something for Everyone. The Problem I am having now is the Colors on the sections. That is What I need Advice on. Glad you joined. I will goto your forum and join also , however...I am not that much on Games. Later... Flash

Yes, some code I have in that section is not compatable with IE6 or IE7. I have firefox3 and don't have any trouble at all going into the general area. I have looked for misplaced code and was unable to find it at all. Is there a chance that you can use firefox3. It is Really a Lot Better than IE is anyway. I have a LOT of problems when I run IE6 and I wouldn't give you 2 cents for IE7. It is full of Bugs. Once you see and run firefox3 then you would never go back to IE6 or 7!!! thanks for the info tho... Flash

I thought you were telling me to get them register on here. I already have TWO complete Cbox's on here now. they were Free also. Both of them were. Thanks Flash

i don't see them And flash, you need to check your private messages. I don't know what you "Don't See them?" Tell me what you don't see? Yes, I left you a reply to your pm. I had a little trouble with my computer plus I have been trying to organizing my 10,000 Plus baseball cards to upload them to the forum...or rather photo-bucket that is..... later.... flash

That's really the wrong attitude...
What you should do is make your members comfortable, not snap on them and chase them away. iPako has some valid points worth listening to.
Anyway... It is also bad form smiting someone who is just trying to help.
Flash, I know you have your own unique ideas for your forum and it's design is a work in progress. If you want any advice, start a new thread at LCG.
