  Re: New Polling Mechanism Available
 
(...) Cool. How did you get it to be so narrow in your CLSotW page? Or let me try that question another way, is there a way to tell FTX "don't exceed a certain width for the next thing, word wrap if you need to"... if you look at the current (...)

(...) While you can't *place* it, you can *reference* it in your FTX... just give the URL to the ballot as you would give any other URL... see lugnet.trains for an example (not saying it's great)... the FTX code looks like this - start - Take a (...)

  Re: New Polling Mechanism Available
 
(...) Yeah, I agree. Upon creation, I was trying to make it as short as possible. (I also wasn't sure how we would be able to place it on the site after creation...looks like at this point, we can't) I will fix this if I can figure out how to (...)

While concise questions are good, I had no idea *what* this poll was about till I went into it, saw who originated it (Jake), remembered his hot button of the moment, and read some of the questions. Now, (...) (22 years ago, 11-Aug-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.curators)

  New Polling Mechanism Available
 
Greetings! Well, since his trip to BrickFest, Todd has been in a coding-frenzy! LUGNET's latest development, now having passed its testing*, is available for all members to use: (URL) think you'll find this tool both fun and useful! (Curators take (...)

  Re: Instructions Newsgroup sidebar updated!
 
(...) Hum.. You might want to put a link to POV-Ray as well. A link to Version 3.1g would be best for most users and Ver3.5 is still a bit *buggy* in terms of what most LDraw users do. Plus MEGAPov WILL NOT work with 3.5. Here is the link for the (...) (22 years ago, 11-Aug-02, to lugnet.inst, lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.curators)

  Instructions Newsgroup sidebar updated!
 
All, As the new lugnet.inst curator, I have taken my first stab at updating the sidebar. I have added several cool features and have a few more ideas for I will be working on later.

  Re: Naming the spotlight section
 
(...) We haven't picked the standerd title text yet. once decided on, it'll probably be inserted automaticly above lists. I think we (admins) feel that the spotlight activity in the underlying groups will be called "Highlights", leaving the term (...) (22 years ago, 10-Aug-02, to lugnet.admin.curators)
 
  Naming the spotlight section
 
I think that the name should be part of the spotlight FTX output. It should be consistent for all the groups. So I would like to ask that Todd et al. consider changing it to print a banner based on whatever consensus the curators arrive at, and for (...) (22 years ago, 9-Aug-02, to lugnet.admin.curators)

  Re: When too much is way too much-.build.mecha sidebar
 
Let me tell you, for someone who is only, kinda, sorta, interested in MECH/MECHA the resources are just enough for me to think, "Huh how neat! I should try that as practice/experiment". -- Thanx~ Nicole; "Now with Masters in Psychology Analytical (...) (22 years ago, 9-Aug-02, to lugnet.admin.curators)
 
  Re: When too much is way too much-.build.mecha sidebar
 
(...) I guess! Was this a contest? :-) I'm torn between having lots of stuff because it's neat and it's one stop shopping, and not having so much that it's overwhelming and stuff gets lost. Difficult balance. lugnet.trains may be too far in the (...) (22 years ago, 9-Aug-02, to lugnet.admin.curators)

  Re: Expansion of Spotlight functionality
 
(...) only minor nit I have is that now all the 'news' links like the posting setup and the shortcut to people.newbie are scrolled off the bottom of the screen (at least, at 1024x768 they are). I'm not sure where they should go to, but I think it (...) (22 years ago, 7-Aug-02, to lugnet.admin.curators)
 
  Re: Expansion of Spotlight functionality
 
(...) My first pass was just "Spotlight". I can see a difference between the news home page and the lower level pages. Once you get to them, it's a little more clear what's going on. (...) Hmm, I like "What's hot in lugnet..." also. I think I'll (...) (22 years ago, 7-Aug-02, to lugnet.admin.curators)
