Forum feedback / improvements / suggestions

[Chris]

We are on the lookout for a forum mod for this. We don't want thread "voting", just the thumbs up, '+1' idea. Just haven't found it yet.

I am generally reluctant to make suggestions which might incur more work for the those responsible for this site, however, I have one suggestion, and rather than open up a seperate topic, I thought it would be prudent to include it here in wardNL's topic since he is asking for suggestions.

There are two significantly different groups of renderers in here :

1) Those who use Twilght with little or no post processing
2) Those who are skilled in the art of post processing to further enhance their images

And that leads me to my suggestion, which revolves around the Showcase.

If it is feasable, and of course practical, would it not be a good idea to have two Showcase categories as follows...?.... :

1) SHOWCASE OF PURE TWILIGHT RENDERS
2) SHOWCASE OF TWILIGHT RENDERS WITH POST PROCESSNG

[Gareth]

i should add, when I suggest "SHOWCASE OF PURE TWILIGHT RENDERS", it maybe okay to include those who have used just a little post processing, but limiting post processing to a only 'stamping' to get rid of any unwanted noise, and maybe some smudging perhaps and exposure adjustments........

........but where do you draw the line (so to speak..!)....???

...but where do you draw the line?

This is precisely the question. Most top-end images in any rendering software I've ever seen have something tweaked in them.

Hi all (Admin stuff here).

I noticed that the attachments are ordered in a descending order when uploaded. I.e. if I want to upload say three images in a certain order, when posting, the last one will be displayed on top while the first one at the bottom (of course, I can always insert them inline in any given order).

If you go to the admin panel, you can easily change this by getting the images to display in an ascending order (of course, onléy if you want to )

This is how it is currently set over SCF (we changed it from the default descending order after some people wished this feature)

+1 on changing that.

Is there a way to make the "Jump to first unread" button bigger?

Since that's part of the specific theme you are using, and it's not the default theme, it's not really practical to try to change. If I was more experience at PHP forum theme stuff, then I would but as of now it's mostly just poking around.
