And @Charlie's Alter Ego You can now add your own thumb to a topic you created. Let me know if you find any bugs.

@Charlie's Alter Ego @SyriaThere will be a new thumbnail plugin in the next day or two that will allow users to upload their own. Stay tuned.

?

done.

I will, sorry I just have not had time Really busy weekend, hopefully early next week I will have some time.

Looks like its working now. Probably a bug at twitter API? I didnt change anything on our side.

Actually cropped gif's are not supported. So you need to size it appropriately before you upload. Apparently this has always been the case.

So yea, it does work, just there is a lag of 15-30 seconds while it converts it in the background. I may need to add a message so its more obvious to users.

@Stromboli1 ^ seems to still work? https://twitter.com/Colorsuper/status/444078433509720065 What happens when you try?

The issue with the old avatar showing on your profile page has been resolved. The "crop" issue where its not respecting the crop rectangle and just using the original GIF size is still a bug that we are working on.

American prudness? But mostly its google, they dont allow nudity. Regarding the other thing if its too sexual we need to mark it as NSFW, but there is no black and white line like there is for nudity under their rules. Its up to the moderator that is reviewing that site at the time. What I may think as NSFW is very different then what you think is NSFW.

Thanks it looks like there is a bug in edge cases where its showing both the old gif and the new HTML5 on the same page. I will work with the dev to get this fixed and then we can go from there.

So I dont see your avatar being blurred but it is being converted to HTML5 video instead of GIF to create a better experience for the users. So before everything was a GIF which are huge (2+mb) and just browsing to the main index page which is all text could take 2-3 seconds on a fast connection since its downlading peoples GIF avatars. Now we are converting them to HTML5 using gyfcat and the size is significantly smaller. There may be a small loss of quality but it creates a much better experience for everyone. For example your avatar is only 32kb in HTML5 video (mp4). I will see if there are any tweeks I can use for quality, but honestly I dont think I notice it unless I had your gif and html5 side by side.

cleaned up. Thanks.

Ok thanks. Im waiting for the elasticsearch patch to come (no ETA) and once that is in place then I *hope* it will resolve a lot of these view counts/modified times/ search issues as they all use it on the backend.

Thanks I cleaned those up and some other recent posts of his. I also sent him a message asking him to follow the rules.

Can you try now and let me know? Thanks

Yup we are currently rewriting that plugin to make it more flexible. The current one broke when we upgraded the forum software.

I think it may be the ad code. I sent the ad publisher a message and hopefully they can fix it tomorrow.

I will look into it today. Apart from the ad thing anything else that is bad?

Its expected in the next software release. I do not have an ETA at this time but hopefully in the next week or two.

@Stromboli1 is this the only one you noticed or you have seen this repeatedly? I bumped the thread and now i see it where it belongs, I wonder if its just a one off bug. It also could be due to elasticsearch (still working on it) as it creates caches for the main pages to load more quickly. So if it had a stale version the threads would be out of order.

bump test
