Here, have some snow.
You can turn it off via the "Stop Snowing" button at the bottom of the page. It should remember your setting as long as you use the same browser you stopped it from. You also shouldn't get snow while on mobile devices.

Added some more stuff:
- Posts you have yet to submit will now save in your browser's local storage, preventing loss if your browser crashes, power goes out, chipmunk chews fiber optic cables or you accidentally navigate away.
- Images in signatures are now limited to 351 pixels high
- Flags are back!
- When viewing a board, you can now hover over the title of each topic to get 500 word preview pop-up.

I'll have some more soon, hopefully.

@AJ

Have you considered falling back to almost all .css for the majority of the colors rather then using images? since this does speed things up quite a bit since there are several members complaining about speeds. I personally am just fine on speeds so I have no complaints about that. Figured I may as well ask. 

Yeah, that was already the plan and I just rolled out some more optimizations in this regard. But as I've stated, most of the speed problems stem from huge user avatars. The new avatar restrictions do not apply to avatars already set until the member's forum profile page is re-saved.

Today's changes:
- Switched from using transparent PNGs to transparent CSS colors in certain areas with non-transparent fall backs for older browsers
- Anything under IE8 will be redirected to the older theme
- No background images in the Dillo browser due to compatibility issues
- The My Messages button now has the number of unread messages beside it
- Increased cache storage length

Unrelated to the theme:
- Approved/Rejected the extensive mod backlist
- Upped mod size limit to 64MB

Will work on flags as time permits.

Glad to see most of you like it! Made some tweaks today based on the feedback.

- I changed the color of the text in the "gold" sections to the Bully blue color, however it does seem a bit dark. Leaving it for now.
- Re-enabled CloudFlare to see if it helps (used to cause problems but seems much more stable now.)
- Enabled some caching options
- Static "Bully Blue" background color to begin, the background image will fade in once loaded.

As for the slow-loading, part of the problem is most of the avatars are either (or a combination of):
a) Movie length GIFs
b) Loading from a slow external website
c) Ridiculously over-sized

From now on, all external avatars will be downloaded and served up by Bully-Board. All avatars must be 125x125. If they are not, they will be resized for you. If your GIF is larger than 125x125, it will be converted to a static image.

News & Updates / New Bully-Board theme!

« on: December 01, 2013, 02:31:10 AM »

Hey everyone! Welcome to the new Bully-Board theme!

It's been over three years since Bully-Board was saved from the brink of death, and since that time the theme has received minimal changes. However, that changes now! As a present to the entire BB community on my own cake day, I've decided to launch this new theme. The new BB theme is much easier to navigate, uses the entire screen real estate and is much more pleasing to the eye. As with anything, there are bound to be a few bugs that crop up here and there. Let me know if there are any issues or anything in general you want me to change.

Cheers!,
AJ Collins

PS: You can still use the old theme if you'd like, just click here. Be aware though that it is no longer supported and may be discontinued at any time. To return to the new theme, click here.

Resolutions / Re: Bully-Board.com being Blocked By Malwarebytes

« on: April 14, 2012, 02:35:38 AM »

The IP address belongs to CloudFlare so it's not a malicious IP address. It seems someone on the Malwarebytes team decided to go crusading on CDNs such as CF. Nothing I can do about it until MB staff digs its head out of its ass and realizes that it's just inconveniencing their customers. I haven't used Malwarebytes but you should be able to turn off the web blocking feature and just keep the other protection on. I recommend using the SiteAdvisor plugin (http://www.siteadvisor.com/) and Google Chrome as they both check websites against a database of known malicious websites. If you're looking for an anti-virus, just use Microsoft Security Essentials (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/products/security-essentials).

Bully 2 Discussion / Another Bully 2 mention by Rockstar

« on: February 15, 2012, 06:50:49 PM »

From today's Q&A on Rockstar's Newswire:

“Are there any hopes of us getting a Bully 2? I loved the original and it’s been, what, 5 years? Please make another one.” - siim2200
“Hey, and Bully 2? It’s Real? Please make Bully 2! The world needs a Bully 2” - Julio Cësar (via Facebook)

We absolutely love that over 5 years later, we’re still seeing so much enthusiasm for Bully - all we can say is to see the answer from Monday's Asked & Answered about L.A. Noire! We really love Bully ourselves and may also make a sequel at some point.
