Bob,
Anyway to put a star on the flame icon to show new posts?
Sheesh JB, can’t do that. Flaming Star was a movie, wasn’t it?
HellifIknow…
Yep 1960 Western with The King!
Never mind.
I see it says “new posts”.
Duh…
So since we are talking about colors and such, has anyone gotten the new flagging system to work the way it is suppose to here on LSC? I notice it marks my own replies to a subject in the forums as new and doesn’t clear it until I look at what I have written or updated.
Ric,
That must be a function in your browser, doesn’t happen with mine (OPERA).
The ‘read’ messages isnt browser based. The system knows what posts you’ve read, and what ones you haven’t. So, if you haven’t read yours yet, well, then its unread!

Hans-Joerg Mueller said:I may be wrong, which many of you guys want to point out to me quite often ;-), but this was not what happened before the update. It seems now that the indidvidual subject has to be accessed and then the portion of the Forums needs to be re-accessed from the Index before it is finally marked that you have already the update.Bob McCown said:Bob, that's funny!

Before what update, Ric?
Bob, I’m thinking before the “Stars and Flames”
Oh, those are just new images, no software update. Just copying a new image to a directory.
Okay. Looks like you just changed the “images” again. 
Whew!!! I like that. The subtleness works well and the multiple envelopes shows how busy it is.
I like the stars and flames better… The envelopes is so, well, subdued, too soft…
We are ““Trainmen””, we want bold and daring…
hehehe
Heh. I had a bunch of complaints about the big/bold/bright ones… go figure…
Bob,
Don’t listen to Andy, he’s just stirring the pot. Its 37 degrees and he could be out working on the railroad, without swetting. If you encourage him, he’ll not get things done on the BS. Maybe I should word that “he won’t get any BS work done.”
Bob McCown said:Me, I didn't complain, but I like the new envelopes better. Heck, I'll take LSC almost any way you arrange it -- you're the one doing the work.
Heh. I had a bunch of complaints about the big/bold/bright ones.. go figure...
I just hate, having to Squint to see if the dang envelope has a “check” mark in it… At least, make the check mark, Black, or dark Blue, something to kind of contrast the the ““soft, womanly color”” of the purfumed envelope…
PS: I sneeze when I breath in, must be the purfume…
cause I know it ain’t the coal smoke and steam…
