Actually the “X new” link should take you directly to the first new post number, not necessarily to post #2. This feature actually seems to work well (for you guys at least, unfortunately there’s a major bug for me with my admin privileges ), which is one of the few major advantages of this upgrade.
Yeah, I won’t disagree with you on this. But it was unfortunately necessary, because it’s absolutely imperative to be using software with security updates. These complex forum engines always have bugs, and if the developers don’t look for and fix them the bad guys will find them and exploit them. So I really didn’t have any choice but to upgrade.
I have. It happens to me several times a day, but I skim every new post on the forum. I just reload the page that won't load, and the problem is gone. ;)
By the way, I use Chrome on Windows 7 and Windows 8.
With all the beautifull BLF special flashlights….
Can’t anybody who has them take a picture with a white background to replace the current pic?
I mean, de Kronos set would look better then the now widely despised SRK that is shown right?
Funny, those lights were specifically chosen recently by members of BLF to be put up on the page, replacing what was there before. That SRK is one TK owns and modded a while back. And the light on the left is the original BLF X6-SE, from the first GB with Eagle Eye. The light on the right is simply a SK-68 zoomie.
OK, the BLF Community-Moderated Spam Control System® is now in place and seems to be working correctly. Please remember that BLF is not Reddit, so please do NOT use the spam button to mark posts you disagree with. Thanks! (Please take a look at the instructions on how to use the SPAM button.)
Well, BLF does start with “Budget”… and the Kronos set is arguably not “budget”. I’d also argue that BLF is more about making than about consuming. So I think the cheaper lights in the current logo are still more representative. Make something awesome. Plus, they won the vote (except for disagreement about whether to use a P60 or C8, and then the X6 got used instead).
Lights like the Kronos set are nice… but they’re not what BLF is really about.
I wouldn’t mind a minor logo upgrade though, to add translucency and clean up Moire patterns on some edges: (current logo on top, suggested upgrade on bottom)
! Really? Even setting aside the fact that the image is actually of TK’s fancy SRK…. The SRK is not widely despised AFAIK. In fact, as far as I can see it’s still fairly widely sought after, despite the common knowledge of the quality issues with clones. If anything that seems to indicate that it is still widely loved! Just my two cents. :-/
EDIT: Hopefully I don’t sound too troll-ish! “widely despised” just seemed like quite a bit of an over-statement.
