Practice Carom game has been added. Scores from the carom game now go to a leaderboard and high scores are announced.

Private message windows now open minimized as requested so not to disturb your game play.

A few forum changes. The previous broken quote box has been restyled and now includes a link back to the original post. You can now link to an individual forum post and there's also been some minor style fixes. Notification for reply in forum has been fixed.



Also now the Quote, Bold, Italic, Underline and Spoiler must be in a strict order to work. You cannot have non matching brackets (this previously caused HTML errors).

Example:
(b)(i)correct(/i)(/b)
(b)(i)incorrect(/b)(/i)

EDIT: Update and make it more readable.

on your about me, picture's/smiley's etc dont work any more

love the carom idea tho

Please see the edit above. You just need to ensure the order of tags are correct. I see you have the underline and bold tags the wrong way round on your profile page (the last 2 occurrences).

ohhh ok, i'l just delete them its quicker

love it especially the pm open minimised and the new practice game.

no complaints from me

solorak tagged as requested in case it doesn't happen in an offline message

Good stuff, really pleased to see these amendments.

Especially the PM minimised, this was really overdue.

Nice one Nick.

Good work Nick! Pm minimized is very nice, looking forward to the new carom too.

Nice one nick!
Now nobody will play carom games anymore- everyone will just be practicing

practice makes perfect seb

nick can you explain how "Link" works, i read your first post, clicked on it (on my edited post last night) but don't fully understand it.

cheers

This is a link to the specific post, either for bookmarking or showing a specific post to someone else. There's no purpose to click on it in usual forum viewing. In the future I may add highlighting to the chosen post too.

Yeah, I'm top....

you sure

I will always be top. (In that image....)

I really don't like the quote bit. I like the fact it links to the right page, I just don't think it stands out enough from your own post. Especially for longer text, it's hard to distinguish. Maybe slightly different shades of text for each quote and sub-quote?

Good idea, I'll make the whole quote the same shade of grey.

What about sub-quotes then? (Like this one above).

Possibly just a slightly different shade?

Updated, try give the page a refresh.

Nick, if I pop up a pm window, I used to be able to click on user picture and go to profile - but this doesn't happen anymore, is it on purpose ?

Maybe rather than having "username said:" underlined, put it in bold? Just looks a little weird with usernames that have an underscore.

Nice updates though.
