I'd still like to hear from anyone who has a recording of Jedi from ITV in the 80s - the original subtitles were shown (on a 4:3 AR with some dodgy panning).

There's no point in nominating one person to maintain this list when there is an alternative list that everyone can help maintain.

Again, this seems to be an issue that only occurs with Internet Explorer 6:

While I agree that GIMP is an excellent graphics editor, it's overkill for simply resizing an image and saving to JPG. I used IrfanView, and was able to get my avatar under 5K at 99% quailty.

Not a bug. You didn't format your img tag correctly and there is no such thing as an underline tag. Read the help page.

Whatever happened to my post about seeing the previous posts (like it was before) when in post mode.

What do you mean what happened to your post? It's still there, unchanged.

Knightmessenger said:

First attempt at posting took me to a site with really annoying pop ups, then page cannot be displayed.

Well, based on your other "bug" reports I suspect this is more likely to be user error than a bug in the software.

I'm typing this in the quick reply box, and I can see your post above.

Jay's already said that he's working on improving the posting interface.

(Also remember that Videohelp use phpBB for their board. Doom9 uses vBulletin, the previous ot.com forum used FuseTalk. Every other forum I know uses some form of proprietary software, with perhaps one or two custom modifications. My point is that to code a totally new piece of software, as Jay has done, is a remarkable achievement, and to dismiss it as merely a "new look" is disrespectful IMO.)

This list has become somewhat superseded by the main project list at fanedits.com.

Neither of the two titles you mention appear on that list.

Sorry, no direct links on this board. You can put the links on another website and point people to it, and of course you can do whatever you want privately.

I use Firefox at home, but corporate policy doesn't let me have the rights to install it on my work PC.

Back on topic: I see it's not a bug now, but I think future announcements that are placed in multiple forums should be locked to prevent replies - especially since your request "please don't flood this topic with issues and requests" is being ignored ;)

Tiptup just posted a reply in the new forum software announcement, and now every forum is reporting this as the last post.

When viewing a thread started by an ignored user, their first post in the thread is still displayed. Is this a bug or intentional?

Edit: also noticed that clicking the link to show the ignored posts only brings up the lower options, not the actual post itself.

Most of these occur with a narrow display (~800px) and only with MSIE 6; FireFox and MSIE 7 seem to render the forum in more pleasing display (browsershots.org may be useful to demonstrate these issues).

- There is a gap in the top navbar between "subscriptions" and "contact us"
- The forum list window (appears when you click "Forums" from the top or bottom navbar) doesn't need to have a scroll bar.
- The search box is sometimes located over the thread title.
- The "indented line" division between posts is wider in MSIE 6 (I mentioned the same issue with fanedits.com).
- The blue colour scheme has first post in light blue background, with remaining posts in grey.

Personally I think it's bad etiquette to remove the first post from a thread with eighty-something replies.

What does "make better use of available web resources" mean exactly?

That script is very useful, because many of the entries at fanedits.com have links to the old originaltrilogy.com forum threads. I didn't fancy having to go through the database to update every one!

The last post report still seems to be hit-and-miss.

For example, the last post in the Theatrical Cuts vs. Special Editions forum is shown as 12 Mar 2008 at 5:51 AM by adywan (my time zone settings, obviously).

The last post is actually 11 Mar 2008, 9:44 PM by Sluggo.

Adywan did post in the announcement thread at that time - but there are more recent posts after that.
