Forum Updates Happening

[DerVVulfman]

Dear friends,

The Granny Lists from RPG Maker Central is trying to kill me. 

Sure enough, I have many of GrannyDeb's threads up.  However, I have two left and they are not tiny in the least.  As a point of fact, the recently archived "VX Ace Portraits and Facesets" topic took three days at bare minimum to complete. More than 100 websites that were within the original post that I had to verify; over fifty with irretrievable content, thirty with content that was able to be salvaged, and just over twenty five site links still functioning.  All this, plus downloading and storing the archived content so it could be accessible as it had once before.

But, as I say, the Granny Lists are trying to kill me.

I have two more such lists remaining. 

One of these may not be so bad, but the other rivals the Portraits and Facesets thread in apparent size.  And for these, I must also verify every link, and see as to re-acquiring content when needed.  And then the Developing Tools board which may offer a cadre of programs and techniques any RMer should appreciate.



Meanwhile, I need to state that some permissions have been adjusted.

That is to say, non-member Guests will be able to see that the forum indeed has a board for Archived websites that no longer exist, but will not see anything more, not even the names of the boards within those three archived websites by name. And for the Newcomers who have not completed registration, they will not see the threads or posts within those boards just as they have no access to their User CP nor any attachment.  Said access is solely to fully registered members.

And now returned to the top menu is the 'Support Graphics' button.  Once more, you have access to custom userbars that you can place within your signature indicating if you are a scripter, a pixel artist or musician... and much more.


EDIT:   I stated yesterday that I had two more GrannyDeb lists to process.  That has now been reduced to only one remaining.  The Animal Resources thread has now been fully updated, links verified, and what sites that have vanished into the internet archive has its graphics once more available and visible with only a modicum of difficulty.  Looking at the clock, it was literally a 9-to-5 job with me stepping away only for lunch.

Yet, one of the Granny lists remains... and that will take some time indeed.
