Blogs and groups now have customizable background colors!
Blogs and groups now have customizable background colors! Customize the look of your blogs and groups by changing your background colors. Click on the "Colors" link and try it out (you can always return your blog to default colors). You should be able to color individual posts as well. Have fun! |

Oh, oh new stuff again?!?
| |||||||||||||||||
|
Do you think maybe later the default size of font used can be changed too?
| |||||||||||||||||
|
Also, I have just posted this in my Blog for those that do not know the "RGB" colors codes, they can be typed in to the new addition to easily edit the colors instead of searching the color palete. The New Color TableColor NameRGBHex

I have another request... any possible way to fix this site so that when you google someones handle, that their profile and every post they've ever done on here doesn't show up in the search results????? That would be a terrific upgrade to have some privacy within the confines of the site! Thanks!

Ewwww Andrew don't really like the new changes. I would have liked to have seen a way to add graphics in the body of the post instead of the little window we have now. Can I put that on my wish list please??? Juicy

It is nice to have the option, but my first profile, and all the blog entries/comments I made were wiped out when I turned my profile off temporarily. I wrote customer service more than once, since I had some really good entries there and never heard from them, nor do I exist with the old name. I did rejoin, as a standard member, and certainly glad that I decided to remain a standard member, since your customer service appears to be less than stellar. hotandhorny1082

as long as we're trying to help members find their way in this new land of colors .... blogging 106 colors in both available formats ~ off to get sum shadez.... ~

Only one thing I would like to address here is that this is not quite so "user friendly" in defining the area that color changes can be made. I did a little more work here to trying to help the Bloggers to knowing the table and cell areas that colors are being changed when selected. This is what I came up with below:

Luvpump...cool feature but why not add this and all other font, bg color, and text enhancements, etc... into the bar below, under the comments section? It would make things alot easier for the blogger to be able to just click and go! Instead of cruising all over for all the seperate commands? just a small suggestion

NOOO add graphics in your post in the body of it. I know about the comments and adding graphics but in the body of the post. Like if I where telling a story and wanted to add something like this [image] Juicy

COOL! But not for standard members, right? Considering of buying Gold Member. au revoir!

you can just increase size ,change colours bold etc like you would on a post with those bracket things[ ]

thanks mate, I noticed that this morning and have been playing with it for a while. I hope people think of the best and easiest colour combinations on the yes though. I am trying the operating theatre greens and blues, they are supposed to be relaxing Bye everyone, it was a blast
| |||||||||||||||||
|
Ya know what, I am clueless yet I managed to work it out. I just want to say thanks, we don't need complicated instructions now that we can just pick them. I had about three go's and came up with my colour scheme, no hard work required Bye everyone, it was a blast
| |||||||||||||||||
|
Here is an idea about graphics added. How about textures or image backgrounds? Like wallpapers used; i.e. Marble, Bubbles, Feather etc... and maybe custom ones that members can upload too. Talk about some "Pimped up Blogs" if that was made available.

When this first was 100% live last night, we were able to manually set the RGB codes by typing them in the text boxes. Has this changed for some reason?

Grrrr Andrew When one is writing a blog entry not when they are commenting on someone's blog is what I am talking about. Are you still confused???? Juicy

Entering the RGB Color Codes manually works only in Mozilla Firefox; however, entering the RGB Color Codes manually in IE6 the color codes are not changed or saved by entering them manually. I have not tested this on IE7 or Opera as of yet. I will later though Thanks Andrew, Nick

You can put photos of members sure but no graphics. Juicy

Thank you for this cool feature, and thanks to SensuallyKatey for explaining how to use it! Reading blogs with different color schemes will be nice. I'm sure somebody will set text/background combinations with too little contrast. But when I find one, I'll highlight the text and read it that way.

Andrew, This may seem off topic but it is not. There are members feeling that the groups are suffering in activity because of the Blog sections, an idea of one of my members of my group was that it would be nice if the members in groups could also add a photo to the side of topic postings as done in the Blog section. I just wanted to pass this on, as I do agree with him since those photos can help increase the activity in the groups with its members. Nick

hey.. hiya Luvpump... the colours are so cool and it's fun!!! I love it! Thank you.

Andrew, I hope you do not mind me posting a these links for members in your Blog in helping explain how the table colors are defined. This is for coloring individual topic postings. For those that wish to change the color backgrounds of individual topic postings this is how they are defined by the color selector.
These are links to other postings in my Blog that have been independently colored. However, the color formats are not seen until clicking on the comment link at the bottom of each one.. [post 625623] [post 620922] Nick

They are not visible in the Groups at all. Only Gold members are able to insert a photo into a posting that can be done anywhere, (i.e. Magazine sections, Blogs, Groups but not visible to the Standard members). All we have is the moderator chosen group photo on the description home page, but nothing to personlize a members topic posting with a photo as done in the Blogs. If I may suggest, it would be nice in groups if a member posting a topic could upload a photo that would be under their profile photo. On the left side of the topic. Nick

why is there a huge, gigantic space between all of the content on the left and the members list/photos on the right? I am viewing it through IE7 and havent tried it with any old versions of IE or any other browsers, so I dont know if it is just because of my browser or not? That space is very annoying, but I love the new colors thing.

Suggestion for Andrew... Get a CSR to scan the groups & blogs for messages directed to you & AsianMatchMate.com in general. It will most certainly be enlightening. Current problems with the system: Terrible lag times, posts in grps & blogs truncating or outright disappearing and msg indexing is skewed and inconsistent. It appears that the database is losing it's structural integrity and getting worse. The rule engine is also starting to suffer as it is catching stuff that does not exist, and I'm not talking about the usual stuff. You have a problem with DB corruption, or at minimum the indexing structure. Might be time to consider implementing a clustered server system with a good fail over mechanism in place. As part of that, I would strongly suggest, that a housekeeping team be assembled and strip dead / non-active user's based on 12 months inactivity, dead group elimination. I'm sure that if this was accomplished and the DB was properly repaired and re-indexed, things would certainly improve and customer/client relations would improve. BTW: A parallel, test environment identical to Prod with "real world" testing & testers should be implemented. Just some thoughts & Suggestions. Muff

Hi there just wondered as I am about to start my own blog.....I have been a paying gold member from the first day I joined this site and yet I have received what I consider to be an abusive email from a standard member who has had multiple profiles(all of them standard and therefore free)informing me that unless I am prepared to comment on her blog every time I visit I should not visit her blog at all.... Is it compulsory to comment?and how is it on this site a free member can dictate what a paying member can do?? I was too much of a lady to say to her that I was actually waiting for an interesting blog from her to actually comment on????? any advice would be appreciated please thanks

Seeing as I'm here, I'd like to add my voice to the "colours, schmolours" crowd. What I'd find really useful in the blogs is a greater variety of emotions in the list that we see when posting a new thread in our blogs. There are so many missing! Where is 'victorious' or 'lost' or 'ambivalent' etc etc Perhaps an option to enter our own might be useful, seeing as there are just so many..... AND THE WINNER IS ~~~~ [post 2692868]

The colors work a treat : well done! But I notice other people have changed the text color of their blog titles. I can't get this to happen for me. Is there anything I should know? Or is it just my browser/OS combination?

Please don't send your personal information until you have exchanged at least 2 messages with PONYBOY373 using the Message Center. This policy reduces abuse of our members and makes your experience more rewarding and enjoyable. Continued violations of this policy subjects your account to suspension. Thanks for your understanding. Please explain because I'm stupid and lots f my sent mail isn't reaching the receivers and there is no personal info in it and btw, I don't mail people I haven't known awhile nbecause some of your lady friends here will say I'm deranged again but I don't care, its true, they have sent me viruses through mail here and buggered up my kids pc's so am wary of those I don't know and to mail the abuse team is a waste of good time cause the response doesn't work and I won't run up my phone bill for this company, I already pay enough to be abused by memnbers on this site even when I'm on cam and that too they steal the streaming and make their own or find notices to add to my pics and say it was found on the net. Sorry for the rant but at least your friends can now see what I have written to you instead of making up assumptions about me like they usually do. Look at my blog and the hidden posts and you will see what I mean how secure you are. Many of you network friends are the nastiest under false handles.. They think I don't know. Just like they think they know my spelling I trick them with it but I do know how they write and what they write and how they right. I might look green but I'm no cabbage. I suppose you going to ban me now for telling the truth like you did last time under my other handle. There are two fake handles of my old handle and they one and the same person who pretends she is not! Take care and I hope you will solve the abusive problems please.

I would like to be able to add more graphics and animated gifs please ) to blogs as well as to group posts. There are obviously a lot of creative people here, and it could only enhance their creativity. And, when adding a graphic to a group's main page, it would be heaven to be able to place it on the page without it defaulting left and having the text NOT wrap around it. I know, I know, I want everything. hippie p.s. "Remove all inactive members from your friends network" looked great, and gave confirmation nicely, but didn't remove the inactive members for me. Has this function worked for anyone?

Little bug I've discovered in the colours settings... When I post a comment to someone elses' blog, the updated blog will display in the colours of MY blog, rather than theirs. When I go to another blog, and then back to the first, the colours return to their set scheme. A minor problem, to be sure, but one that ought to be corrected...
