Just DLed the toolbar. Initial reaction: it's bright. But that's only because I haven't reinstalled my O Canada theme to the new version of Firefox yet. Otherwise, it looks pretty cool. I'd suggest trimming out the weather bit though. No need for that feature, and it doesn't show up on the screen if the music function is expanded anyways (unless you've a wide-screen monitor).

Oh, and you could remove the word "Search". I think the icon that you're using is pretty standard for that function.

Hey there, Rintaran!

Okay, I knocked the font down a notch (should help the red not be so bright) and the search button, well, we don't have a lot of controll for it. I can add links to it but can't eliminate it or the word "search". If you open the toolbar options ( click the black arrow beside Oh Canada!, toolbar options should be the last item listed), you can pick and choose which options you would like the toolbar to display. From what I can tell, the only thing that you can't disable is the search function.

Reason for this is that searching through the toolbar directs you to sponsored links (not MY sponsors but the sponsors of the toolbar). Hope this clears it up for you.

What a goober I am sometimes!! It looks like I mucked up the "Posts" button. It no longer updates on new posts and I will have to try and fix it. MAN!!! I gotta learn HTML better! lol

Sorry for any inconvenience.

Hey there Folks!

Yeah the Forum has really been wonky lately. The servers have been up and down and when I have access I am trying to get a lot of stuff done (fixed vtu@home for ya, Grizz) but some stuff I have attempted to update or post have been lost after a fair bit of work put in (had a great string of vids all copied in and POOF!) . {SIGH} Ah well, what can ya do but start again? Hopefully the server upgrades will be completed soon and it will be smooth sailing.

As for the double posts, the ones in the BBcode thread are a mystery but Grizz's are 3 hours apart. He is a Bear that demands results! lol

[marq=left][font=Arial]*DON'T POKE THE BEAR!**DON'T POKE THE BEAR!**DON'T POKE THE BEAR!**DON'T POKE THE BEAR!**DON'T POKE THE BEAR!**DON'T POKE THE BEAR!**DON'T POKE THE BEAR!**DON'T POKE THE BEAR!*[/font][/marq]

Yup, I see what you mean LOl - posting today is kinda "challenging" ;) I gave up earlier in the day, but things seem okay now.

You may be interested in checking out MyPunBB.com? Someone emailed me earlier to say they have switched from FreeForums. From what I can gather, they are free, but have a few google ads. I think if you pay a few bucks tho, the ads will be removed, but not sure about that, nor do I know what their "uptime" and overall reliability is like.

I posted again because the first one was not there, then the site went down and next time I checked both were there so I edited the second one.

APS@home is fixed and Proteins@home has been added. Deleted the clock, you guys were right it was redundant and didn't look very good either. Still trying to fix the new post update button, though. Giving me alot of trouble.

Hope you enjoy some of the tools, Flight. Personally, I'm diggin' the Projects navigation tab. Makes visiting the different sites really easy. Thanks to Grizz for proposing that idea! Anything you might suggest , Flight or anyone?

I noticed that Flight. And unfortunately the RSS feature will not "move" up and down like the Links feature (projects) so the only thing I can do is eliminate some and maybe add another RSS button. I think for the time being I will just lose the less popular projects and maybe add them later on if there is a demand.

*EDIT* - Flight, please refresh your toolbar (beside the "Oh Canada!" there is a drop down menu with refresh listed towards the bottom) and let me know if the RSS feeds are all visible, they are for me now that I have eliminated a few feeds.
