Maybe as a compromise on the reply button, it could be made in the same style as the edit/del/report/warn/info/quote buttons, with an icon on the left and "reply" text on the right? What would be a good icon? As to what group of buttons it belongs to, it fits in more with the "new" topic button, so …

think I fixed that. Somehow a different directory was used somehow. I am still not sure how those imagesets work... Be sure to refresh Some of them are specified in the cfg files and some are set in the CSS. It should have been OK if the style's folders had been copied over as it was on the test …

I wouldn't call DOS games played in ScummVM Windows ports. In fact many of those games run better in DOSBox than with ScummVM. Also, "a windows version much better" is not necessarily true. The SCI games that have Windows ports are often far buggier than they are with the DOS interpreter and usually …

I understand "XP mode" in Windows 7 Premium and Ultimate is rather tightly integrated and should cause a minimum of confusion. Yes, an XP Mode app runs almost like it is a native app. At first it looks strange to see an XP window on a Win7 desktop. You can launch the VM to install the app in the XP …

They will be ordered by date as well, but they all stay above the posts. I don't think that simply editing an announcement alters the date. Adding a reply to each in reverse order can do it. Other ways are roundabout workarounds. You could also copy each announcement, delete them and repost them in …

One of the standard work a rounds for the SB noise has been to use the Thunderboard driver. If you are going to get into fixing the digital audio drivers, the Jones CD AUDCDROM.DRV fails to initialize, even with lowerd cycles.

That just makes a distinction between the two. Announcements will always stay at the top. Stickies will move up and down according to what has the most recent post. If you have a lot of stickies, a sticky can end up pretty far down the list. Also, announcements are generally something you want all …
