Re: Car/window stickers?

Can we just have some plain “OV9” jobbies ? I’d be up for a couple at least. Just put your old Evo stickers on the other side of the glass. This. I'm still not sure if the aim of this was to retain some kind of link to the EVO forum, or whether the idea was to completely distance it from the mag. T...

"Give me Gunny, Jeremy"
"Fuck off Mark, you're not Taggart!" :D

But seriously, RIP R Lee Ermey :( Sad news.

Re: God of War anyone ?

I've been firmly in the XBox camp...I've not bought a OneX because I was waiting for something decent. Right now, I kinda feel like I should pick up a PS4 instead because they've got some genuinely awesome exclusives. In fact, I may do so instead of upgrading the PC with the shitty RAM pricing showi...

RSS Feeds

As it's meant to be a car forum, I'm cocking about with EVO's RSS/ATOM feeds which now pipe into a new forum at the top. You can reply, but not create.

Re: Howdy

It needs a better skin - I can change the font size in RSS but it screws up other scaling.

Re: ....and we're back as OV9

Easy enough to change the logo...but credit to Seb who sent me the cleaner one so if he (or anyone else) fancies creating something fresh.

I've had a few "cease and desists" in my time on the Lupo forum so I've already been there and done that ;)

Re: disable mobile version?

PhpBB = Free
vBulletin, as used in your other examples = $400 (including mobile pack) plus yearly cost ($50)

Feel free to transfer the cash over, and I'll get right on it ;)

Re: Forum Theme Colour

In the user control panel you can change to Black - note I've not updated the header icon for it.

If you do, you'll also need to go into your control panel -> Board Preferences -> Edit Display Options and set 'Display postprofile on the left' to "No" otherwise things look weird.

Re: ....and we're back as OV9

I posted this on the FB thread, but it bears repeating here: on the subject of the OV9 logo, it probably ought to be freshly drawn rather than blatantly nicked and reversed. We don't want issues with the new forum for a minor bit of copyright infringement. I thought Lawyers and Legal people were bl...

Re: Enable attachments please Matty

Isn't uploading from a camera to FB or Twitter only via the App though?

Could try using Tapatalk? I think I need to enable the integration on this side.

I'm afraid it's browser based, so if you browser doesn't let you display the desktop site.....get a better browser ;)

Re: Enable attachments please Matty

I can point attachments to another host...but for now I think we're in a decent place.

Ideally (eventually) I'd move this off PhpBB and onto something "proper" like IPB or vBulletin, both of which have much better feature sets (I use IPB on ClubLupo, but it's $200 + $50/year).

Was that picture taken with a potato? :lol: I can increase the attachment size - it's currently set to 256KB with each user having a limit of 50MB. I can increase that, if needed, but I'd rather the attachments were used for the odd file to save smashing my allocation (the Lupo forum does that for m...

I have set the wheels in motion - I'll have to take the forum down to migrate it, I'll do that later tonight when I get home.
