Anyone noticed the Chat client? you can see it two ways. The first is on the main Forum page:

The second is using the tab above:

Clicking the tab has advantages. First, it's bigger and holds more posts. But you want to chat AND surf the board? Pop that bad boy out & keep surfing!

With the pop-out you can resize the chat to whatever size you want. And since it's in another window, surf away!

Oh, and if you make a typo or want to delete a message you can now do that, too.

To change styles you first look at the bottom left of the page:

Someone asked how to upload pictures. Here's how!

First, on the bottom right of the Reply box you'll see this:

When you click that it appears. You can then attach it as either a Thumbnail or a Full Image.

Have multiple files and don't want to upload them 1 at a time? When you click Upload you can choose multiple in the window!

Easy as pie! And the images? They are on our server so no worrying about Photobucket, Tinypic or whatever.
