    I have few sugestions, I hope they're possible:

    1.Could topiclist in main page include direct links to topic pages, because it's tiresome to go to first page, then select the one you've read a day ago.

    2.Could website redirect to the same page where you have been when you reply to the message ?

    3.Could Thank You pages be avoided ? 8-)

    backwards, as always, I am...

    3. That one probably can't be done.

    2 and 1 are related. Go to your preferences for the site, and select "Newest First" in the forum sort order. It's easy to do and will fix both #1 and #2.

    ;-)

    Then I'll have to lread forum upside down. Thiis will damage my brain even more. I guess I'll have to live with few more clicks.

    @Targhan

    For the 3, maybe you can remove the refresh delay by putting it to 0. Actually, it looks like this:

    <meta http-equiv='Refresh' content='2; url=viewtopic.php?topic_id=2195&post_id=
    17272&order=0&viewmode=flat&pid=17252&forum=
    14#17272' />

    It's 2 seconds.

    or simply add a Location: [url below] in the header.

    I don't know why but I find scrolling on this site to be awful. Rather than just moving upwards the page will start jumping and move very slowly upwards.

    This is likely a browser (Firefox on BeOS) & xoops interaction but it does not happen on other sites (I did notice it on an Amigaworld.net page but not nearly as bad).

    Has the site been tested on Firefox on other platforms?

    the weird scrolling happens in Opera too - and only for MZ. but only if I have the page zoomed different than 100%

    if it's at 100% the scrolling is normal like for other sites.

    it's a little weird, but i put up with it because it's MZ.

    The only big problem I have on MZ is, that it's the only site where a login doesn't work when my proxy filters the "Referer" http header... its really bad to have to enable the referer, just because of MZ... is there no way to change that?

    They are probably very "forgiving" browsers, xoops seems to be generating a very odd mixture of xhtml and html which probably confuses FireFox no end.

    I'd look at testing the pages on PC browsers as I'd guess even here most of your visitors are PC users.

    Yes, really - I've had nearly 3000 visitors to my Walker pages and over 80% are running Windows (and most of them are using IE).

    I frequently browse morphzone using firefox and mozilla

    Have yet to encounter any scrolling issues at all.

    IMHO this site is best viewed using a 'zilla variant YMMV
    I am ; therefore you are

    @Targhan:

    In the new Shortcuts pulldown menu (or cycle-gadget :P) there isn't a link for accessing directly the Gallery!

    And in an another topic I have written that you'd replace some parts of the PHP code (yes, the TrueColor functions) - When will you fix these?

    Oh my God! :))))) Have you seen php.net? :) One thing you have to do (if you didn't look into the Pegs&People Gallery topic) is to search both on the site. The correct answer is ImageCreateTrueColor(), because the other function does not exists! :)

    And don't forget to replace all ImageCopyResized() with ImageCopyResampled()! :)

    i don't understand this weird code, but will the thumbnails that already have been created get redone in better colors or are they stuck with stinky colors????
