Hello and welcome to the New PhillyNORML forums.  You will find that the old forums were kind of old and outdated. Never mind all the spam bots that were attacking it.  This new forum will prove much better in every aspect than the old ones.  If you have a question, concern, comment etc let us know in this post.  If you want a new feature, forum, to be a moderator etc... let me know by PM.  I will make this sticky so it will stay at the top.

Please enjoy your stay and lets make this the place to be.
:)

Nothing like the smell of a new forum!
"Legalization?" You mean it's not legal yet? ::) There's a lot of work to be done! Lets, Git-R-Done!.

Thanks

Right on, thanks for the comments.  I am looking into migration but because of what I told you from the last forum I am not sure it will be possible. I do not have access to the database files...the woman who originally set up and hosted the old forum is MIA. That is one of the plethora of reasons for the upgrade. Now everything on the website and forums is on our own servers and much better.

Note that you can use those arrow buttons to collapse the forum categories you don't want to see at any given time... try it out. I like that feature.

Hey

I really like the fact that you can post much longer Subject Lines.   On the old forums you were limited to 256 chars or something ... No more!!   ;D

New forums kick ass


Suggestion:   Add more smilies.. Add some pot smilies...

I am sooooooo in the process of adding pot smileys, just got sidetracked. I have some on the server already just have to add them to the forum selection. Youll know when they are ready. :) Any other suggestions just ask.

Come on Pot Smilies!!!!   

One thing I noticed and I am prob using it improperly but...

WHen I try and use the {SIZE}  {/SIZE}   (Im using {} here just for the sake of display)  to encompass several {QUOTE}   {/QUOTE}  items  the SIZE loses its effect.   If I put SIZE inside the QUOTE then Im ok.    Can I use SIZE to work the whole post? 

One more thing that would be cool.   Can you change the default size of the font for things inside {QUOTE}   The 8pt or whatever it is now is just so small and so very hard to read.

Thx
