The problem is that people can abuse this and upload inappropriate material. It's a tough one.

The <img> tag is disabled, as Chris said. You can upload a screenshot to a hosting service like tinypic.com and link to the hosted file in your post.

It's just my opinion. I think that the UI of CP Discussion Board doesn't looks like a forum.
Could anyone please tell me why it looks like that? and Any plan to change?
Thanks in advance.

What would you like it to look like?
It was designed to display threaded discussions. I will be adding a mode where it can display messages in flat, unthreaded form for those who want that.

The option to collapse a thread then expand for more is great. This is one of the better forums I visit. Keep up the good work.
Thanks, Clyde

It looks more like a forum than any other forum software I've seen. You can at least track the various threads of discussion here.
On other forums it becomes very difficult to read. It is also difficult to contribute if the discussion has been going for a while because your responce to the OP gets takked on at the end, rather than in its proper place.

Because it is better than the rest.

If there is I hope the threaded version stays for them that want it.

Agreed. The problem is that the average young prole these days hasn't seen anything except a flat threaded board and find themselves unable to wrap themselves around it. Meanwhile, those of us who've been on the net for a decade plus grew up with fully threaded forums if not usenet, and spend our time cursing flat threaded systems that cause threads to collapse under their own weight after more than a few dozen posts.
Forum software that does both is essentially nonexistent. And if you want to add an NNTP feed or email list support it's even worse.

Community Server does both offers differnt views and NNTP access.

I'm happy in this forum with a lot of active members..
Thank you.

I was wondering why CodeProject doesn't have a forum for VBScript? Would that fall under Visual Basic or Web Development, or does it depend on what you are trying to do with the script?
Trinity: Neo... nobody has ever done this before.

A green bar appears half way across the page when using the following Mozilla browser...
Mozilla 1.2.1
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20030225.
Also, I am not able to wrap my code in <code> and other tags. Some other text gets wrapped inside those tags.
The emoticons gets inserted somewhere else not at the point where my cursor is.
Just bringing these issues to your notice.
Thanks.

Hit Ctrl+F5. You have a cached version of the old bar.

Where? In the submission wizard there is a "var" button you can press, or you can hit Ctrl+D, or you can switch to design mode and manually wrap them. In the message boards you can hit the "code" button.

Unfortunately I don't have Linux and Mozilla 1.2 to test. Have you tried upgrading to the latest version of Firefox?

When replying to a message in the forums. The "Code" tag and other tag get's wrapped around some other text and not the selected text.

I just installed Red Hat 9. This browser came along with it. I think I will have to go for a newer one.

As useful as they may be, they can be annoying sometimes. A default 'tab' character is equal to 4 standard characters, but the pre tags like to extend this to 8. Instead of being able to copy and paste code, in order to display it correctly we must replace the tab's with 4 spaces. Also, when entering an empty line ( hitting enter twice ) the pre tags seems to take it back out. Again, for any empty line we want we must add another space.
Could something be done about this to make it more "copy and paste" friendly?

For the submission wizard? It already automatically converts tabs to 4 spaces.

I have never used the wizard, so I'm not too sure. I was talking a about the forums more than anything.

Hi Chris,

It also automatically converts to white space, which is then subsequently removed from the document... Not desired behavior.
