I'm all for being subversive at work but won't be doing anything about the forum appearance. I don't know what your work infrastructure is like - mine can potentially track anything I access using their equipment so I use it sparingly. I carry my own equipment (including connectivity) for times I need to get on, which would allow me to use browser extensions/OS screen colour "hacks" to hide activity in plain sight if necessary.
Acceptable use policy allows me to look at my own stuff, it's more the funny looks I get from shoulder-surfing colleagues when they see big animated avatars of knight type dudes with bright red flowing capes etc :awe:

I can live with it, I just fire up IE11 and turn images off 8-)

Forum software updated. Seems to have fixed that annoying attachment bug at least.

The one where the attachments just disappeared while editing the post? Man, that was annoying.

Looks like the 3.2 update broke the tables in this post. :problem:

How do I change/edit feedback that I left for someone?

I meant to add positive feedback, not negative, doh!

I've updated MediaWiki to 1.33 for security fixes, unfortunately this *breaks* authentication with forum logins completely https://github.com/Digitalroot/MediaWik ... /issues/35

As such, wiki editing is disabled completely as no-one can login.

I'll find some time in the next few days to re-enable logins using MediaWiki authentication (blocking general account creation due to bot efforts) - you'll then need a separate account for editing the wiki until the plugin is fixed.

Hi everyone,

I used to post my photos on flickr and then paste de code here, but I have surpassed their max number of photos. Any other free service I can use to upload photos?

Thanks and happy new year to everyone!

Uh, so on a recent sale, the person I interacted with accidentally put my feedback as negative with a positive comment.

He confirmed that this is a mistake, and it should be positive. Is there some way to resolve/change this?

Major update of phpBB3 to 3.3.0 along with the New Astro City theme. The Egret II theme will be done later tonight.

As always please post any bugs you spot in here.
