Is it possible to make a button in everybodys profile, how to view the threads? Now i have to push the button "newest first" at every look on every thread again. _________________

Can you simplify the upload of screenshots and other pictures like avatars, please? Or can you make a site, where you describe exactly how to do that? But then please in german too, because I think its very complicated now. I wanted to surprise you with posting nice tonight screenshots yet, but I really donīt know how to do.
Btw imagine you donīt know what an URL is, than you get a feeling for what complicated it is to me _________________

Seconded.
Also Firebird (Thanks to Alo) I can give a short explanation how to up an avatar from Infiltrationmod forums (assuming you have a profile there):
- Log on to Infiltrationmod.de forums / Bei Infiltrationmode.de einloggen
- Go to your profile page / Auf's profil wechseln
- Right-click on your avatar picture / Mit Rechter Maus Taste auf's Avatar Bild klicken
- Choose "properties(?)" from pop-up menu / Im Pop-Up Menü auf "Eigenschaften" klicken
- There is an entry Adress(?)(URL), copy and paste this for upping your avatar here / Den Eintrag Adresse(URL) kopieren und hier als URL für den Avatar angeben.
That works for the avatar.. |

A thought occurs: Could we have those funky 'titles' like on BuF. I miss my Mk82HD tag below my nick. |

Negative on that, Sir. I just tried by deleting and trying to upload; I can select an pic but it's not taken when I select "submit". |

Worked for me too!
for Snakeye:
log in
go in ur profil
scroll down to the bottom where u can read "Avatar control panel"
go for "Upload Avatar from your machine:" and search it on ur hardisk
or
go for one of both lines below and copy in that line
http://forum.infiltrationmod.de/images/avatars/avatar-103.gif
it should look like that:
If u are typing ur post, there is a field called "opions" below " Message body"
Make a mark in that line "Attach signature (signatures can be changed in profile" _________________

OOOkay, finally got it, BUT:
- no error message when trying to upload a file that exceeds either or both pixel and/or file size limit (my Avatar has 100x100 instead of 80x80 and was slightly too large as GIF)
- Same when uploading from another webpage..
- When linking the pixel and size limit doesn't seem to be enforced (I have linked ATM and it is 100x100)
Also why 80x80 and 6k? Shouldn't a bit more be allowed, say like 100x100 |

As I suggested in my first post, would be good to have same avatar size as on BUF/Infmod.de. |

Sir, I believe you're mocking me
I already had the avatar using the method kindly described by you in the "Welcome to the forum" thread, which btw is the method I lastly employed to now have to downsize my avatar pic.
But when higher powers announced the option to upload one I couldn't resist trying out the new way - must be the software test engineer inside me. And I may add (again) that the provided method for uploading the avatar from harddisk could be a tad (just a small one) more userfriendly when handling illegal image sizes. |
