Nifty-stuff Forum's New Home!

[Nifty]

Welcome to the new home of the old Nifty-Stuff Printer Forum!

I'll be posting a few updates and things to check out in this post.

NOTE: If you have questions, problems, or notice a bug PLEASE start a new topic in this section with a VERY detailed subject/title and add as much information about your question / issue as possible!

Important Items:

1. New Terms: On this system, "Posts" are referred to as "Messages". On the other hand "Private Messages" are now called "Conversations". It takes a bit to get used to!
2. Likes: You can "Like" other people's posts! They get notified when you like what they posted and it adds to their reputation.
3. Trophies: A trophy is a goal for things like # of posts, an anniversary as a member, number of likes, etc. You can see a list of them here: http://www.printerknowledge.com/help/trophies
4. @mention: This will alert them that they were mentioned in a post. For example: @The Hat , @websnail , @pharmacist , etc.
5. Watch Forums: You can subscribe to or "watch" forum sections. Example: You may want to subscribe to the Canon printer section to get notified of new topics in that section.
6. Draft Auto-Save: While you type, your post is automatically saved every 60 seconds. If you accidentally close the tab / window or even turn off your PC, when you come back to the thread your draft copy will be there waiting for you!
7. Mobile Browsing: The skin / theme on this new site is "responsive"... which means no matter what size screen your on, the page will automatically format itself to fit nicely on your device!
8. Image Uploads: Fantastically easier and fun ways to load pics into your posts (see post here)
