This is a rather minor announcement about some new features...

BBCode
I have removed a ton of useless bbcode that was lying around doing nothing and created some of my own. These are the "Other Styles" drop-down menu of the full editor, as below:

The purpose of the "box" bbcodes that I have created are mainly to make your Project topics look better, and other resource-like topics(tutorials, scripts, etc). The boxes should not be used in ordinary posts, primarily topics. You see, they are for making them look better. Just the one rule.

Here is a showcase of the new BBCodes:
NOTE BOX
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy eirmod tempor invidunt ut labore et dolore magna aliquyam erat, sed diam voluptua. At vero eos et accusam et justo duo dolores et ea rebum. Stet clita kasd gubergren, no sea takimata sanctus est Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.
WARNING BOX
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy eirmod tempor invidunt ut labore et dolore magna aliquyam erat, sed diam voluptua. At vero eos et accusam et justo duo dolores et ea rebum. Stet clita kasd gubergren, no sea takimata sanctus est Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.
MESSAGE BOX
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy eirmod tempor invidunt ut labore et dolore magna aliquyam erat, sed diam voluptua. At vero eos et accusam et justo duo dolores et ea rebum. Stet clita kasd gubergren, no sea takimata sanctus est Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.
GRADIENT BOX
[grad]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy eirmod tempor invidunt ut labore et dolore magna aliquyam erat, sed diam voluptua. At vero eos et accusam et justo duo dolores et ea rebum. Stet clita kasd gubergren, no sea takimata sanctus est Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.




Needs some length to get the full gradient displayed[/grad]
INFORMATION BOX
Generally a one-liner
ALERT BOX
[alert]Generally a one-liner[/alert]

Unfortunately, no ruby bbcode as of yet. My computer us out of internet, so I can only do browser orientated updates for the time being. And I am also going to change the spoiler bbcode back to something like we had before.




Calendar
I think this was mentioned by Gary, sorry if I'm wrong. In this version of the forum software, the calendar is a major application. I have enabled everyone to add there own events, but of course these will be moderated. This community generally follows the unwritten or universal rules of forums, so im sure this will not be a problem.

I'll add it into the drop down menus soon, but for now you can access it from here:

The calendar is used for birthdays(done automatically) and events concerning releases(scripts, projects, tutorials, resources) and events organized by both staff or members.

Those are some attractive BBCode Snippets you got there Marked! I can't wait to be able to use them. We are allowed to use them in signatures, correct?

The calendar looks rather nice as well; can member's edit or delete events that they've made? This is a must.

Yep, in signatures are fine. I'm sure about editing/deleting, why don't you test it for me?

Glad you like them. I was thinking of making some more advanced ones where you can choose the icon. For example, [bbcode=iconame]text[/bbcode].

Sure enough, I can.
