I've been sitting here thinking "Hans has been extremely quiet - he must be busy". I was absolutely sure you were on the beta list because if anyone is going to tweeze apart something we're presenting then hit it with the Blowtorch Of Sanity it's you.
You've been added. I apologise. I'll let Thiru know we're about to get a drumming.

Open a new browser window and you'll see the Quick Answers [beta] link. There is a "Help!" link at the top right that takes you to the FAQ, and at the bottom is a brief description of the new reptuation system and a table showing, in gory details, our first rough pass at awarding points for contributions.
Sorry if this comes through muffled. I'm speaking through a 3" steel door.

Been a bit busy (blaim work and renovating a apartment on my own), have a list of possible bugs but haven't had time to double check them and send them.
I'll get on it when I have a couple spare minutes 
Also couldn't really find where to post them exactly (but then again haven't been looking that hard yet  )

Although I have the correct email configured, and the 'notify' option checked, I don't get any notifications. This has been like this for several weeks.

Chris - I'm having issues posting messages from Google Chrome - I type in a message, press 'Post Message' and the result is a new, empty 'Post Message' form, with no message posted 
I tried the same thing with Firefox (although using CPhog rather than the standard interface) and was able to post a message fine (that's how I'm typing this one in!).
I then emptied cache, browsing history etc from Chrome and tried to post a message again and got the same result as previously.
The problem seems to have appeared between around 2pm 19/10/2009 (UK time) and now. I'm using Chrome 3.0.195.27 (that's the latest beta channel build)
Sorry - appears to have been a transient thing, possibly due to my mobile broadband having a slight fit?

I'm using the same version and don't have any problems here.
(message typed and posted with chrome)

Hmmm - I shall have to investigate

Investigate no more; I face the same issue!
It has happened several times to me in the past 2 days, and strangely enough, you can't even close that page (in chrome) after this has happened. You can't exit chrome either (have to kill it from TM). Chris said to me that it was a server that was misbehaving.
It then seem to be back to normal for a while, and today the same issue seem to have cropped up again.

Still no problems here 
But at home my chrome did act up for a little while on another site.
Was to lazy to investigate more

If only our servers had the power to take down Google's Chrome. One can wish...
But we are experiencing server issues in the wee hours (US time) that may account for a page failing. Still digging in deep on that one.

The member types page has a typo under the "The Code Project Editor" section. It says "Members of this group get a Site Builders icon next to their name". I imagine it should say "Editor icon" or something like that. The Site Builders icon is a little hammer, not the one shown. I'm guessing this is a case of copy and paste webpage composition.
Visual Studio is an excellent GUIIDE.

I recently did a lost password, typed in the captcha from image and it failed. I got wise and used the voice read back, completely different numbers/letters than the image, and it works.
|
|
|
|
|
This is a known issue and we have it on our TODO to replace the captcha control. Sorry about the hassle.

Getting "Link appears to be broken" error when trying to post here and in the Lounge.
|
|
|
|

Which link, and what steps are you taking? Is it when you click the "New message" link within a forim, or the Submit button when posting a message? Is it still happening?
I did have a server on the ropes around that time and it's possible that's what you were seeing.

I've gotten the problem a couple of times within the last hour - It came, for me, when I attempted to use the "click here" link in an email notification of a response. It was a page not found - connection error.
Also seeing some weird formatting of the page after posting a message.
In both cases the problem disappeared by doing a refresh. I thought it might be because I was using Chrome.
Edit:
Ironically I got the error again when posting this message.

It happened when I hit the Post Message button. Not happening now.

I've got a couple of "network connection broken" or so messages when clicking on Reply. Retrying always succeeded, so it looked to me like a rebellious server.

Sometimes I want to include an image, but it exceeds the standard 600 px width. Is it possible to include a css hack in the standard CP css file, that would scale down the image to 600 px, with a tooltip that says "Click to see full-sized image"? Clicking on the image would then bring up a new window with the full-sized image.
To kick this feature up a notch: When you hover the cursor over the scaled-down image, you see a magnifying glass with a plus (+) sign.
