topic prefixes!

[mikesgames]

Before each topic, when requesting for example, there should be some available prefixes, like:

- logo
-avatar
-other

It would make requests easier.

Thank you, mikesgames, for the suggestion, but I think it's pretty easy to mention in threads title what's needed. There will be too many prefix options to include, like web design, logo, signature, avatar, button, just to name some. No? Maybe others have something to say regarding this?

This feature is available in MyBB 1.6, which is currently in beta2 (next release is gold, stable). Shouldn't take too long for 1.6 stable.

Thanks for the info, faviouz. I'm a fan of MyBB, just like of GIMP. To me both these projects have the same good feeling around.

So.. we upgrade the forum and we get prefixes?

[faviouz]

Correct. Even though it is possible to do it right now, it isn't safe. It's an unstable release, and there might not be an upgrade path to the stable version.

And when the stable release is out, I will still have to update the theme. When it's done (shouldn't take too long), then Einherjar can upgrade to 1.6. Just so you don't have to stick with the default theme until it's done. So we stick with 1.4 for a few days.

mikesgames, I'm still unsure about the need of prefixes for requests. We should let the time show, currently there are not that many requests to get lost.

As to upgrading Gimp Forums... just like with any other software, I prefer to wait few days or even weeks after the new version is out, before actually performing the upgrade. So there won't be any problems waiting.

[mikesgames]

But from the looks of this forum, it will get big. Quick. so... eventually, maybe?

[Admin]

Yes, with pleasure.

ok, cool!
