I was viewing the For Sale ads when the new look came through Jake (thought something was wrong for a minute!). Think I kinda like it. Any other options/changes for registered users?
Keep up the good work on this fine website, sure appreciate having it!! |

Thanks, I'm still working out some bugs on the formatting (especially on the home page… for some reason it breaks the format and does some strange stuff in Internet Explorer). You may see the old format come back for a couple of hours or maybe a day or so as I work out the bugs with this new look, and I’ve tried to make this format as similar as possible so people don’t get too confused by the new layout.
Hopefully their will be a few new features coming with the new format, but I'm not 100% sure what features will work out yet. If there are any issues people are having I’d appreciated it if they would please let me know the issue, the page the issue is on and the browser you use. Thanks in advance.

The only thing I notice with the new format is that the threads don't change color to let you know which ones you have already viewed. |

I’m so used to viewing the page logged into my account that I forgot about that, sorry for omitting that feature. For those who don’t have already have an account... just in case you are curious, ALL new posts you haven’t read come up with a Red Flag and in Bold, it makes it much easier to know what you’ve read and what you haven’t. It doesn’t matter how many computers you use, as soon as you login you can quickly and easily see what’s new since your last visit.
I’ve band-aided the issue for non-registered users and now it turns everything you’ve read a wonderful purple. Hopefully that should help non-registered users figure out what they’ve already clicked on (Just remember it will only be purple on the computer you read it on, if you read it at home and then go to work you won’t know what you’ve already read. It’s a minor issue, but it’s just one more reason to Create a Profile and register your user name.) Jake Morgan Owner, PULLOFF.COM Independent Pulling News This page is a free service.

New Features!
|
Admin Registered: 03/25/2008 Posts: 2,526 |
Well, there are a few new features for registered users in development/partially active:
The first feature is an Image Gallery. I’m not 100% sure how useful this is going be since there are already so many sites that offer free image hosting, but this is for the user who isn’t really a photographer or doesn’t want to have an addition photo gallery, but would like to upload some photos from the past or some interesting pulling pictures that they would like to share with all of us. I currently have it set for a maximum of 100 photos, but I can expand that for anyone if need be. I’ll be continuing to develop this feature and make it more useful and more accessible. You can get to it through your Control Center. The second new feature is a Template Chooser. I haven’t built all the templates yet but I plan on letting users chooses template based on their favorite brand of vehicle. Right now there are only 3 templates and they are still pretty boring, but I plan on making them a little more exciting as time goes on. If you’re a New Holland, John Deere, AC, etc… fan you should have a template in the future, and the current templates will be getting more and more personalization in the future. This feature is also accessible on your Control Center. These features aren’t anything special but hopefully they will be developed more and more in the future and hopefully I can help people make the PULLOFF.COM site a little more personalized. For Non-registered users… you’ll see a default template. Jake Morgan Owner, PULLOFF.COM Independent Pulling News This page is a free service. The cost is covered out of my pocket.

Thanks Jake,i have several more older pics to go through and post in my gallery someday i am boared and my connection is working fast. One thing i would like to add is maybe there could be list of people who have galleries?.As it is now,if the person doesn't announce they have pics on there profile,no one will know.There are way too many members to click on just to look.Just a idea i thought about,maybe you have a better way?..Either way it is a nice feature for those of us who don't have enough pics for a website.Facebook is my only other way of having a gallery.Thanks for the compliment,Randy. |

John Deere Template

Admin Registered: 03/25/2008 Posts: 2,526 |
Here’s a quick screen shot of the John Deere Template for all you Deere fans. For those who don’t know… the templates simply control how PULLOFF.COM looks when you view it. I’ll be refining the all the templates over the next few weeks and I’ll continue to add more templates as I get time.
To change templates simply login to your Control Center and click the link for Forum Settings and change you template to one of the other options. After you change templates you might have to hold the shift key while you hit the refresh/reload button on your browser to see the changes.

Will we get to see a dedicated IH template, for us International Harvester pullers/fans? |

Yes, hopefully I'll be adding an old school IH template for all you pre-tenneco merger fans. I'll probably eventually be doing templates for Case, New Holland, MM, Agco, White, CockShutt, Ford, Chevy, Dodge, heck I may even make one for Deutz fans!
