After all the hassle with Pickaweb I finally make the bold final step in transferring the domain name. Except Pickaweb strike again:

"Unable to update nameservers: Registry error, domain's nameservers not updated [ Command syntax error ]"

Online chat to tech support was actually quite helpful tonight: sorted within minutes. Well, I guess we'll find out in the next day or so whether the nameservers really did update...

Working fine for me in France. If you need an extra helper to test the site, I have some free time at the moment.

Best wishes,
Graham

Probably too early in the build for this, but if and how do you add a graphic to your profile?

So far it's looking good.

If you click on the Agora icon on the left, you will get an error message (or you did yesterday. But follow it through and it will take you to a place where you can ad to your profile, enter location etc. In "Title" I put my handle for MP games.
One of the options is to "upload avatar". You have to play around with it for a while as you are only allowed a small sized image (up to 100 by 100 pixels) and 200KB.
Not yet worked out why my image of a TPE is so small compared to other avatars, but i'm getting there! Good luck.

Or click on the Users menu at the top of the page then Profile then Personality and you get to the upload option.

Especially until the middle error message gets sorted...

Question:

Is the forum appearing a bit narrow on most people's screens? I know it's nice to have a border between the edge of the screen and the viewing area but I feel it could be a bit wider to save on veritcal space. On my screen the distance between the white edge of the forum and the screen is two inches and I had the feeling it would look better if it were half that.

Has the viewable area of the forum been set to a fixed number of pixels or is it just my browser interpreting the HTML in that way?

Feel free to tell me to eff off if you disagree of course, as the above is just my personal opinion!

Have not worked out how to shift a post- can you repost above to the 'site suggestions' topic please and we will see what can be done as and when.

Thanks

The forum width is tied to the Joomla theme, which is currently a fixed-width theme. There are hundreds of fixed width themes available but only a few dynamic width. As I said somewhere else, I'll have a play over the next few days.

Just to say, the width is fine on my screen. But, my screen is only 1024 x 768 pixels :-S
