Re: Forum Software Upgrade

I've also noticed that there's a "first unread message" link on the first page of posts for each topic, which I think I actually prefer.

Re: Forum Software Upgrade

Just as a suggestion - would it be possible to open the Forum in a complete page rather than with the frame to the left like in the pictures below. You could make the yellow "TOMYANG.NET" link at the top take you back to the main page. Just a suggestion though. This is a great improvement as it is....

Re: Forum Software Upgrade

Basically the limit on size was too big for the layout that we're using. I've lowered it, so that pictures need to be no more than 150 pixels wide, and scaled down your avatars to fit within that. It's a pain, but right now this version of phpBB won't auto-scale avatars for you when you upload them-...

*laugh*

I have no idea what else is new really. It certainly looks a little different. I think there are a lot of minor changes that most of us won't notice.

Re: Hold off on Posting Messages on Sunday

OK, the upgrade is complete. I will probably be tweaking things a little more during the day.

Feel free to post, though.

I can look into it. I think it should be possible to hack something up.

We're planning to upgrade to a new version of phpBB (the software that runs this forum) soon, and the new version doesn't appear to have this problem.

If all goes well, I'll be doing this upgrade on Sunday.

The search function should be working correctly now. There was a problem with one of the database tables, and the easiest way to fix it was to rebuild the whole search index. One side effect of this is that it's likely that searching may be a little faster now than before.

The other option i'll throw out there is that you can send lines off to a company like Classic Tube and have them bend and flare them for you. I ended up having a complete set made for my fiat project in stainless.. And since my car uses a mix of metric and sae threads, bubble and double flares.. it...

Re: Tapping noise from my 330 America

Well my worst fears were realized today, something is wrong with an exhaust valve seat in my 330! Francois and I found excessive valve lash on #8 exhaust valve tonight, and after doing a leak down test on that cylinder, we found no pressure being held by that cylinder! Air could be heard leaking ou...
