We made some changes to the avatars, check and see if they are less blurry now
It's better, but still a bit blurry. Now it stretches the image to 192x192 instead, much larger than my 150x150 original avatar, so it still affects the quality. Maybe make it so that the avatar can just be the dimension it is originally? But it's definitely better than what it was, that's for sure.

The thing is, if you go check your profile, your avatar there is much much bigger than it was previously, hence the need for a larger picture I guess.

I hope that this has been fixed.

Is there a limit on the number of conversations you can have? I can't see that it mentions anywhere how much of my storage I am using and how much is free, so I'm unsure if this new forum platform is more generous with it's use of these private conversations.

I think that there is currently a limit so you should be good. This will likely change in the near future but more to come on that.

I seem to be able to post now, and also access the forum. My like button doesn't exist though, and why did someone Undo the sparkle in my glittery Serhat avatar?

Otherwise, much wow with this fresh new forum. Bless it truly and thank you.

I hope that the Reaction/Like feature is available to you now. In regards to the avatars, we are looking into that.

thank you ^ I had the same problem and it's fine now.


btw, how do we edit our own posts? I can only edit posts in the WV section where I'm a mod. In other threads there is no edit option.

How about now? It should be underneath your post.

no, it's still can't edit my own posts, just in the WV section.

I wanted to edit some of my older posts and add some flags, but for some reason when I go to "smilies" there are only only "Smilies", "Points" and "Additional" available at the moment. :(

Speaking of premium membership. I've got one via Patreon. Am I a VIP member already? What is the size limit for signatures, because it's not mentioned at all in my user panel.


+ I'm suspicious that avatars are getting compressed by the forum, that's why it looks blurry after scaling. Though it looks good in 96x96.

The Premium Membership model is in the process of being updated. We haven't set any custom limitations yet, that will follow in the next few days. I will add you to the list though and any future changes will be transferred over at that point.

I am sure the flags will be re-added in due course.

The flag-template in this forum is: :flag_country abbreviation (2 letters) so instead of :de: which gave the German flag in the old forum here you write :flag_*de* (without the stars). Same for f.ex. Spain (add es), The Netherlands (add nl) or Poland (add pl). For Germany this gives -> 🇩🇪

PS. I see now that they have added an even simpler flag-template -> :country abbreviation: f.ex. :*de*: (without the stars) -> :de:
