They will once Vermilion starts posting pics. :dread:

I am going to have to buy a "burner phone" and use a VPN to view it aren't I?

Yep, there are plenty of Moggy in the nude images ready to deal with that.

Well that's that sorted then.

I think I have configured it so you can just post an image link and it will automatically embed it.

It will auto embed twitter posts, imgur posts, soundclouds, youtubes, and some others too.

I had a go at entering a post, too. Seems okay... different, of course, but fine. It'll take a wee while to get used to it. I discovered that there *is* a post preview function; click on the eyeball icon!

It's cool seeing that our GR avatar images can be used (albeit they are slightly stretched at present?). Looks like tags have been added as well!

I'm not so keen on not seeing the last entry time for a topic; but if that's just how it is, I'm sure I'll cope.

I think a big part of any move to a new format will be getting used to it. I like the current forum appearance but, hey, if the tech has become too old to support than I'm up for something new.

^ Just copied here for visibility. I'm looking forward to seeing if this new system could be the way forward .

The last post time in a discussion should be underneath the discussion title. You can then mouse over to get the exact time if needed, see this example from the most loved subcommunity thread on GR:

Dark mode is added, it's called night mode and you can access from your personal menu. It may also be on by default if you have your device set up that way.

Is a new logo in the works for New GRcade?

What is it about pages that people are so attached to?

Always fun when something with no context is top of the page.

Better ask Sirrus and Achenar.

There are benefits when it comes to breaking things up a bit via pages. Especially if you're reading back through something that spans many pages, it can be handy to remember roughly where you are. Although I guess that doesn't really happen very often.

It's just nice to break up that wall of text into chunks, it feels more preferable I think. But I'm not that fussed about it tbh, I'll probably get used to it before long.
