You actually can, but it's kind of "hidden" (I think it's like that since the new "layout" (or however it is called) was installed. I'll explain you how to do it and I will illustrate it:

- Step 1: Go to User Control Panel.
- Step 2*: Scroll down the bar (pic. 1)**
- Now you will see there are tiny spaces between every tab (pic. 2)
- Step 3: Click the second tab (pic. 3)
- Then you will see the "Edit avatar" option on the left (among others), though it's like every "line" is piled on the other (I don't know how to explain this, but it is not as it used to be).

*Maybe you won't need to do this step. I guess it depends on your screen or maybe the Internet browser you use. I don't really know.
** In order to see the pictures, click on the thumbnail, a new page will open and then, click on the image again to see it in full size.

Hope it helps!

Sorry for the double post, but now I take the oportunity to ask about a problem I've had for some months in the forum: I can't attach any picture. I mean, I can select and upload the image but then I can't attach it to my message(s). Does anybody else know why?
As I said in my previous post, the "tags" or "buttons" are "hidden" (you could see what was written on them before) and can barely use them.
I always connected this problem (as well as the one explained above by Angry Master League Nerd) with the change of the new layout or maybe a new update in the forum, but now I wonder if it has to do with different computers, resolutions, Internet browsers, etc.
Thanks in advance!

Although i have same problem with Angry Master Leauge Nerd, i have no problems with uploading attachment pictures alene. As you can see, almost all of my pictures posts lately have been uploaded from attachement. I guess that all of this minor problems can be solved by Panagiotis moderator. If someone is friend of him on Facebook or other social media, let's inform him.

I see, it's ok! Then I guess it's a problem of my own computer or something related to that.
Thanks for your answer

Hi, guys!

Can you see the embedded videos from YouTube here? I mean, when any of us embed a video here in the forum, we can normally see there's a video, we can see the "box". I see nothing, just a blank space there
Does anybody else have the same problem? Does anybody know why this is happening?

Thanks in advance

Ps. This is an example of what I see:

Really? But it happens in every thread where a video from YouTube is embedded, so it can't be that all videos are deleted, can it?
Anyways, maybe I'll be able to see the content just as suddenly as I couldn't.
Thanks for your help!

Why cannot i see the full ''Font Colour'' unit? Also, all subjects above each post are cut in half (letters). I use Chrome.

[Akos Kirsch]

Maybe a Chrome update will help on that. I use Firefox and I see no problem.

Fixed: From now on you shall use the full youtube link, and not only the code.

e.g.

Code: Select all

Please, update any recent posts with youtube videos you 've made at your convenience

The font of the forum theme seems to be broken, it seems to not recognize special characters, as you can see in the Spanish and Swedish sections in the main page. Strangely, those problems were not present before the forum's maintenance

Thanks for pointing that out. As you possibly read on the Forum's Facebook group, updating the forum was a long and painful process. I am going to address that in a separate topic, but in brief, we had to undergo a mandatory technical update, since the software we used was outdated, otherwise we wouldn't be able to access or use the forum.

In the process, the technical team (assigned from our hosting service) almost lost all of our database. That means members, topics, posts, media, etc... We managed to restore the database and keep all our content, but the special characters were no longer identified.

So, no, it's not a font-related problem. I will have to restore every piece of broken characters by hand.

Nevertheless, I hope you are enjoying the forum from your mobile devices
