Bearded Kirklander Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 I found a list of rules via a search, but it struck me that I could not seem to find them on the main Neowin forums page. I see a FAQ link and if I search for rules I find a link ok. Is it a good idea to put the rules maybe along side the faq under Got Questions as a main link so they can be found easily? Also, I cannot seem to find any rules about posting images in terms of pixel dimensions. Someone told me you are not supposed to do more than 1024x768 but I can't seem to find that rule. Is there one? Are there other lists of rules that are not in the main set regarding images and their pixel size? Thanks for your patience, BK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaise Veteran Posted June 17, 2004 Veteran Share Posted June 17, 2004 Good Idea I'll check about that attachment dimensions rule too It was made so that posted images would not cause horiz scrolling at 1024x768, though a pic that size would cause a little in any event.

Thanks very much. I think it would be really helpful to have all the rules in one place/document with all the up to date stuff like image size rules, etc. I'm not trying to be a pain, I'm just trying to figure it out. :) Thanks again, BK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearded Kirklander Posted June 17, 2004 Author Share Posted June 17, 2004 But.. the rules link is in the top right corner! I don't see it. Am I missing something? I'm using the IPB Skin Set 1.2. Is that the reason it might not be there? I have a line under GOT QUESTIONS that says: FAQ Can I change my username? How to change avatar/member, etc. But I don't see the rules. I see in the right hand corner area FORUM HELP, SEARCH, MEMBERS, CALENDAR, CHAT My Controls, 0 new messages, View New Posts, My Assistant Is that not what you see?

Joel Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 The IPB default skin is not as modded as the rest of the Neowin skins. Almost every hack andlink is not included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearded Kirklander Posted June 17, 2004 Author Share Posted June 17, 2004 The IPB default skin is not as modded as the rest of the Neowin skins. Almost every hack andlink is not included. So is this skin not supposed to be used? I picked it becaues it is easiest to read on my monitor. Are there things I am missing by using it? Thanks again for the patience. I was wondering why things people talked about were not available on my screen. Pretty confusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[ timko ] Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 I picked it becaues it is easiest to read on my monitor. Are there things I am missing by using it? Well you can easily see for yourself what you may or may not be missing by switching over to the one everyone else uses, simple :) If you still don't like it, just switch back...

john smith 1924 Veteran Posted June 17, 2004 Veteran Share Posted June 17, 2004 I seriously recommend against using that theme -it rarely gets updated, and doesn't feature the stuff that we code into IVB extra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, you can use it, yes, but you are missing many of the visual upgrades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
