That all sorted now - brilliant - thank you for the kind e-mail.

Only thought so far is that I’m wondering if it’s essential to have all the different categories of posts – it makes navigating between them a little tricky. The football / not-football division on the old board worked pretty well with new posts bringing threads neatly to the top. If possible I’d suggest returning to something like that - but it’s far from essential.

@aloysius Click on your profile icon in the corner, then on the person icon at the bottom…

Then on Preferences…

Then on Interface…

Then set the Default Home Page to Latest…

There appears to be a limit on mentioning more than 10 users in any one post. I am a easy with working round that when making competition outcome posts, probably I would do it by splitting up the posts I make after individual match day attendance threads to do the Total, Away and Home tables in separate posts if there were lots of close predictions and so people worthy of mentions. I don’t know what other Gasroom users and Forecasters in particular would prefer when they revisit those threads after a game.

I reckon that in the ā€˜Tour de Season’ update posts I often mention around 10 users and never more than twenty.

If anyone has strong views - feedback on this feedback is welcome.

Hey @railwaysteve - please try again now. I have upped the limit (discourse has bizarre default limits for all sorts of things)

Thanks @OxfordBlue, I am really impressed with how Gasroom 3 is being coaxed through its first few hours.

It took me way too long to realize CornDog is an anagram of DrCongo.

I have tried to change from ā€œNormalā€ typeface to a larger size but it won’t work (for me anyway)

Delighted to see no thumbs down option. Now I can mock data and pretend everyone agrees with me.

Just making my first reply to check I’m doing right when responding on a particular subject

Thank you so much @OxfordBlue and @bluequarters this site is absolutely brilliant. Long live Gas Room 3.0. And I haven’t detected ads yet, again, I’m sure there are plenty of us who would be more than willing to contribute a monthly sub for this brilliant forum.

And thanks once again @DrCongo for all you did.

Yes total top :banana: @OxfordBlue and @bluequarters excellent job and a pint for you in the Vere (sorry Glass as it’s Ā£1.50 cheaper a pint) if you’re ever in there…I’m the one who is visibly relaxed.
…and yes I realise this is pretty much verbatim of my post on Gasroom 2.0 on the subject but top job either way.

I want to paste some images from my phone. It says to drag or paste them, I can’t see how to do that easily. On the previous Gasroom there was an icon at the bottom of the window, to browse and select them. Is that still available, as I can’t see it?

Hey Steve,

You should have an upload image button on the bottom right hand side of your screen.

See a screenshot of what I see when typing this post below:

Thanks @OxfordBlue. The Privacy button is covering those two up, I can see them underneath, but not enough to use them. How do I move the Privacy button out of the way?

I’ll try and adjust the css styling of that button tomorrow, to offset it a little from the bottom of the page.

Unfortunately it’s a legal requirement for us to have it present at all times.

It says somewhere on the site about the Gasroom being online since 2000 but I believe it has been around since at least 1998
