The buttons are very hard to read - I can guess what some of them are because of the position is similar to other fourms - but there is no explanation of what each button does when you roll your mouse over it, and the text is nearly impossible to read -
Is there a different set of buttons that could be used on this forum?

Hi emmess, Yes you have found another issue they are a dead loss for peole who donot know HTML, sadly after this forum was upgraded the explanations for the buttons are no longer on the help list, we will have to explain each one bold is easy though many people use text editors, so click on the B for Bold and type your text in the tags after the end of your message, text you have to close the tag with [/b] i will complain to the people who write the code for these forums oh yeah different buttons ? sorry no none available sorry, love, Mick

the arrow-button on the second row, first from your left is "blockquote" which means that the text is placed a bit further to the right from the left margin. was that a good explanation or what ;D

The reason I asked about the buttons is because I run my own forum on my website which I have access to the files because I set it up myself and I can edit it or change the buttons and the style. Technicolour Rainbow KIT Board KIT = Keeping In Touch From the attitude of the people on the support board, they aren't very helpful and it looks like a lot of the 'board owners' have similar problems with the buttons being hard to read and are being ignored. I offered to make some 'easier to read' buttons, but if no one here has the ability to upload them to the files so they can be used, there would be no point. Thank you for responding to my queries about this at least - it's more than a lot of people get on the 'support' forum ~

Hi emmess, No we can't upload anything but we can type in the full path to any new buttons, so they would have to be on another server, my server is slow i have ablah forum but its very slow, of course if the server hosting the buttons is slow the forum would probably slow down, but yes it can be done, many thanks for you help we could try it out ;D btw the help button is missing on your forum, i think it is in the blahdocs folder love, Mick

Hi emmess, Many thanks for the new buttons you sent me i think i have changed all of them ? if not please let me know ;D love, Mick These are so much easier to read Mick There are just the buttons in the im section to be linked up - can you use the 'find' function when you have the code pages open? You're doing a great job - I know how hard it is to find certain code in the templates of these forums ~ Thank you for changing the code

I don't think the delete button said 'delete all' either. Would you prefer it did? Only one button that isn't changed yet - the im_config.gif button -

I don't think the delete button said 'delete all' either. Would you prefer it did? Only one button that isn't changed yet - the im_config.gif button - I think so ? ;D but when you hover your mouse over the button is does say delete all ;D but it may be confusing for people ;D The problem is i am creating new buttons so there is no path to the old default buttons, so the paths you have given me to the new buttons which are ok, but it is not that easy for me trying to find the right icon button to change ;D there are loads of em many with just a icon, so i have to go back to the forum to see what they are and do ;D The the im_config.gif button - yes know where that is so will change it now ;D the right click on properties which shows the full path to the buttons,is not available to me when creating new buttons ;D but we are getting there only one left to change ;D love, Mick itis 5.58 am heer in england so i will sing the cat stevens song, Morning has broken ;D ;D ;D
