Update went in today with a few minor changes and mostly addressing some older issues.

- ad system cleanup (scheduler, stats, etc)
- added "new" button for sponsors on homepage (easier to find!)
- admin fix for posting on sponsor behalf
- tracking images logging extra data for admin reference

- allowing some images from ibb host (lightened up security for tracking images)
- fixed bug where externally shared images were not showing border (Easier to identify and find pixel posts)
- cleaned up the image verification for posts tool (looks nicer and stands out!)
- lifers/mods/staff have instant approval on images (1 click win!)
- image verification bug for messenger fix
- gunstruction updates for newest version
- gunstruction pages using CDN resources
- messenger display bug fixes (compose tool)
- forum news posts now open in new tabs
- mail server updated and web tools updated (they should be back to working in a day or two)

As always misc display tweaks and fixes. Also took some time to work on backend db servers and cleaned data and sped up some less efficient stored procs.

We have also been working on the CHAT portion of the site and it's finishing up internal testing and preparing for arfcom testing. Sorry it took us so long, but it's very close now!

Is the white/black border supposed to show up for youtube videos?

Also does this mean that all 3rd party images are going to have border from now on?
First they came for the Bumpstocks, and I did not speak 'cause I'm a fudd.
Then they came for the Binary Triggers, and I did not speak 'cause I'm a fudd.
Then they came for me-and there was no one left to speak for me. -JohnBurns, 1/20/2025

Odd. It's not showing up for me in your thread. Not showing up on off-site gifs now either. On PC, Chrome.

Amazon links are laying the text over the photos for me. Firefox ESR current version on Mac. First the actual Amazon link, then an image of what I'm seeing.

  • Durable 1.25hp motor delivers the power to meet the toughest applications
  • Variable speed control feature enables bit speed to be optimized for changing applications
  • Soft-starting motor features full-time electronic feedback that maintains motor speed through the cut

Hey GB did the image display size change? Seems like images are resizing to max horizontal width. Example:

@GoatBoy - This does not seem to be working for me. I've clicked approve on a few images and get the "Your action has been logged. Thanks for your support" message, but when I refresh the page or go back into the thread later, I'm still seeing the Approve/Block buttons.

Are mentions not working for anyone else? I noticed I was @'ed in a thread from a few days ago, and I don't have any notifications.

You sure they got your username right? It has to be correct down to capitalization for the mention to work.

Thanks, I got yours. The other one looked right to me, so maybe a fluke? (or my eyes are going)
