New features of the site

Post by noverflow »

Your user profile and all that jazz (bunch of new stuff) is under (user control panel) in that light grey bar at the top under the ads.

In there you can add friends and foes and you can tell it to not display certain people.


You can report posts if you want for us to take a look at.


Im sure there is a lot of stuff I have no clue about... Let us know if you find something new.

They have always been here. They steal my bandwidth!

But they just have names now.

They index the site. They are what builds the google database. They come on here, read everything, then report it to the search engine they are from.

I know this may seem like a lame request, but on the old forum links would pop up in a new tab, is there a way to enable that. With the new system I have already closed my browser twice on accident. (I know I can just middle click the link but I always forget to do that.)

random message board post about art wrote: This past weekend I briefly visited a room that had three faithful reproductions of Duchamp's Fountain. Not only did I notice, I used one of them. It's so interesting because the work tells the truth.

If anything, street art is the MOST LITERAL FORM OF ART! if street art has made any negative impression on society today, its that it has made every 13 yr old with $100 and an eBay account into an art know-it-all.
