Fingers crossed!

 

[Kurdt]

Refresh buttons on red alert! Actually I think I might be busy then or at least I'll try to be.

Woo hoo, thanks for picking the time when I'm busy lecturing. I won't have to miss a thing or go through any painful PF withdrawal.

You mean you normally don't stand at your lectern with the shakes?

 

[Evo]

Greg any exciting new features or just a tune up?

Just a tune up, hopefully will swash a few bugs.

 

[Lisa!]

*sigh*

I thought that was because of Evo's new smilies!

Me too.

 

[Greg Bernhardt]

all done, carry on :)

 

[Kurdt]

all done, carry on :)

Wow! Didn't even notice

 

[lisab]

Practically painless...didn't even need anesthetic!

 

[Evo]

That was really quick!

 

[turbo]

That WAS quick! Did you fix the bug that keeps contributors from posting in the Forum Feedback area? We'll see, I guess.

Edit: Yep! Now if you can find a way to make chat stop booting me out every few minutes... Just kidding-it's probably dropped packets through my ISP.

 

[Defennder]

For one thing the default thread title has reverted to <blank>.

It's always the ISP's problem, never PF ;)

Never even noticed any downtime. Though, it would have been better for it to be down now, while I'm supposed to be looking over my lecture notes one last time.

Looks like the upgrade changed the favicon? Or was it changed right now, for some other reason?

Edit: looks like it has changed right now, not earlier.

Hey, I learned a new word!

 

[Evo]

Don't make me look it up, what's a favicon?

 

[cristo]

Don't make me look it up, what's a favicon?

It's the little picture thing to the left of the address bar (if you use firefox). IT used to be a PF, but now it's a little blue thing.

I use IE and it doesn't show up.

Thanks!

 

[Kurdt]

Shows up in IE 7 at least.

 

[Doc Al]

I still see the same old (I think) "PF" thingie.

 

[dlgoff]

It's like the one used on an earlier upgrade.

 

[Kurdt]

Looks like the standard vBulletin favicon.

 

[cristo]

Yup, it is the standard vb one (https://www.physicsforums.com/favicon.ico): you guys may have the old one stored in your cache or something.

 

[Doc Al]

That must be it. Why no new favicon?

 

[Moonbear]

Looks like the standard vBulletin favicon.

Oh, drat! I guess now is Greg's chance to apply his artistic skills again and think up a new one (unless the old one is saved somewhere).

 

[Andre]

I see a new one,

 

[Borek]

I see a new one,

This is a blogger.com favicon, I think your computer is mixing up things.

 

[Defennder]

My favicon looks normal. But then I haven't cleared my cache.

 

[Defennder]

This is a blogger.com favicon, I think your computer is mixing up things.

I have seen it happen before, like for example my computer mixes up desktop icons when I exit to desktop from some big application like a game or something. Why does it happen?

 

[Borek]

This is a new favicon on the bright and dark background. I suppose these white strips on the right are not intentional. Sorry if they are
