How do you like the new site?

Just out of curiosity, why would you not have Java enabled?

That's a good question 🙂 Originally, I disabled Java as a temporary workaround when I was having trouble installing the Microsoft JScript 5.6 security patch. However, I found that having Java disabled greatly increases privacy when browsing, and also blocks nearly all pop-up ads 🙂 Now, although I finally got JScript 5.6 installed, I only allow Java on my Trusted Sites list (those sites where Java is necessary for functioning, like Yahoo and MSN Groups).

I recommend a visit to www.junkbusters.com for a critique of Java, and a self security audit at www.anonymizer.com with Java enabled, then disabled, to find out how much information your browser can leak to websites. It's kinda scary.

Luv to all,

Sneak preview of more finalized design

Here's a sneak preview to those fortunate enough to see this post:

http://www.tickletheater.com/index.php?s=&styleid=10

To change the style back go to User CP > Options and at the bottom you will see the area to switch back to Theater Stable. Remember it's not 100%, waiting for some images to be created for each of the forums so they have their own unique flavor. They will not be the ones currently there because I only added those to stop the broken image boxes.

Looks like an interesting program, Valerie! However it used IE and I use Opera! 🙂 If it's popups you're worried about I suggest getting the Opera browser (www.opera.com). It's got a built in function that prevents ALL popups from popping up and optionally allows only those popups that you manually open yourself. (like the attachment manager here)
I mean, Opera is better than IE and Netscape on every level in my opinion. You should get it just because of that. 🙂

TT you changed to an updated design as I was browsing! So now I have some windows open with the old colors and some with the new. 🙂 I think the cells above each post that give the time of the post looked better in white than in black. But then, everyone's a critic, eh? 🙂

 

[TickleTheater]

Pfft...black? I'll have you know it's a super dark blue that only geeky gamers with overpriced video cards can pick up. 😉 I raised the color a little lighter. How's that? 😛

Hi, Ness, and thanks for the info. 🙂 I'll take another look at Opera's web site -- when I last checked it some time ago, the newest release was still in Beta.

Speaking of Beta, my default browser is a weird Beta version of Netscape Gecko -- it's security conscious, but allows no plug-ins and doesn't allow me to log in to any VBulletin sites. It's a known issue but they still haven't fixed it ... and the full version of Netscape caused my whole system to freeze, lol. I use IE because it's the least-worst browser I have 🙂

Also, Tickle Theater, LOL about the black vs. blue thing 🙂 With my 16MB video card, I'm just happy to see colours 🙂

Luv,

I stand corrected, it's not black! #16253C to be exact! I did a screen shot and stood the color next to a pure black and indeed I can see a slight difference. Slight. 🙂
And I'll have you know that my 34meg ATI All In Wonder video card (video in AND out) was at the top of it's game when I bought it!! So there!!
I also have to mention that I really love the icons next to each forum. Really does a lot to brighten it up!

Ah, that must mean you're using the cutting edge style. Yeah it's not complete yet because those images are temporary. We're going to have cooler ones than that so it will really liven the place up. 🙂

I must have a video card but not the same as you Nessonite, TT, and HDS so i won't mention it 😀
Anyway it works and i also find that icons very useful and waiting to see the cooler ones soon TT:happy:

 

[ticklish_ntexas]

I will toss in my two bits worth...LOL. The new site is easier to navigate, therefore, I'd say that I love it.

Don't really know what you mean so, didn't vote. If you made any updates, it must've been before I came onboard but, I do like this site and alot better than the TMF too! I'll bet I've signed up for the TMF as many as 8 times and every single time I was unable to post even with help from the mods and admins. I seen stuff there that I wanted to respond to very badly and couldn't. How frustrating but, they do have a lot of cool stuff there. However I think this place will eventually become bigger than even the legendary TMF. TT is more user friendly and more fun too!
