Wrong leggings and a bit skinny, but otherwise rather okay actually.

Anime & Manga / Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
« on: May 24, 2009, 10:48:53 PM »
Just finished Toradora! last night.
One of the best high school romance stories I've EVER seen. 10/10, 4/5 rewatchability value. Very close to a perfect score.

I deal with them the same way I deal with everything. Competition.
See, I'm one of those who think healthy competition is the ONLY way to get better at something. If you're good at something, the ONLY way you get motivated to get even better is if you find someone that is, at your current level, BETTER THAN YOU. Because that way you'll want to be better than them, continuing the circle of self-improvement, even if it's for the sake of arrogance and proving your potentially superior ability.

Also, from this very instant I claim the rights to be your firstborn's digital godfather. You take care of training him/her in the ways of MegaMan-fu and Gaming-fu, I'll make sure to train him/her in my Command-fu and Melty-fu ways.

Does this answer your question?

Right now, you can't. Nor will be able to in the near future.
Instead, once you upgrade to the new version (which SHOULD be coming out VERY soon if college doesn't get in the way, which is seems like it will and with all the force it can), you'll be able to have several image folders in the same installation, and the configuration panel will let you pick from those, and you'll ALSO be able to configure what image you want to use for the userbar-based signature.
And if you'd like to use a signature that's NOT a userbar, you'd just have to do like my buddy Roa did and create an image with the same text location as the userbar, so no code modification needs to be done.

Since I'm such an epic detective, I managed to track down where were all the files that were injecting spam code into our forum pages (yes, ALL OF THEM), one of which was getting injected so badly it ended up making your art thread's first page invisible, and got rid of them with a single attack from my command-fu.
You may all worship me now.

Agree with Sky and Flame.
We want pics of the big day. Where you and your waifu show up, mind.

If you mean forums outside of RPM, it's because RPM is using SMF's built-in function of avatar resizing through javascript. Problem is, this has to be manually enabled, or avatars are just displayed at their default display size (NOT default image size).

The forum needs to finish loading the image to resize it to its proper size. n00b.

Randomly poking in the DB initially didn't bring up anything. I'm downloading the forum files to pore over those next. If that STILL doesn't bring up anything, I'll be downloading a complete DB dump and analyzing that closely next.

Reading through the forum files that relate to displaying threads gave no results. And having reported this to the SMF support forum, I'm inclined to think the issue is with the files, not the database. I'm gonna have to talk to Vix so she can request SSH access from Bluehost so I can deal with this properly and find the culprit.

Upgrade includes a crapload of things, among which there's the option to customize the userbar you want to use by only editing a setting through the dashboard and uploading the base image, and the option to use different rotations with a single installation, and much more interesting stuff. 
Stay tuned. 
Stay tuned.

All the mugshots from Melty Blood Act Cadenza. With matching userbar thanks to an upgrade in my randomizer script, which I plan to release to the wild with v3.1 soon.

The problem isn't on your end, guys -- it's with the forum software. Apparently there was some kind of injection with a spambot on either one of the software files or the DB itself, and the ENTIRE PAGE ended up being, literally, CSS invisible. I'll poke around inside the DB now and see what I can find.
