yeah you are right, the comments are supposed to be doing that but it's a bit screwy at the moment - on the list to get done
try hitting refresh on your browser, which one you using fatribz?
yeah the comment formatting is super f'd in the super board, tanks for the reminder, is it screwed here too for you? i'm seeing it ok
also - there is one thing to take note of when re-touching for a collab - if you are re-touching a draw and change your mind and close the window without saving the draw, it will show that you are still drawing on it (which will lock the draw so no-one else can add to it until you are done). if you quit out of the drawing without saving (after trying to re-touch it) just do this - go back to the image from the board view and look at the menu option, there will be an "unlock" link next to re-touch, click unlock and it will be open to draw on again
just in case anyone starts something and then quits out, they'll need to unlock it again
also there is a safeguard in place to prevent two (or more) people from drawing at the same time, if you try to draw on a collab you are part of and someone else is drawing, it will let you know who's drawing
ok - here's the skinny on collab - it's officially UP and working!
to start a collab just start a drawring (logged in as yourself) as you would normally (or not normally since it's going to be a collab), click save, and NOW in the title/comment screen there is a new checkmark button underneath the comments box that says "Make Collaborative"
click the checkmark and hit save, you will then see a list of all registered drawrers to choose from to collab with!
whoever you chose to collab with in the collab list will now see a "Re-Touch" option in the title bar of the board view, so they can go in and add something to the collab.
whoever started the collab will now have a "Collab" option in the title bar on the board view to add people to collab on the draw (or remove if for some reason that needs to happen)
and in the title bar it will show a list of all the people who are available to collab on the draw (title by drawr1, drawr2, drawr3 etc) - right now the drawing by default goes to the gallery of the person who started it, it will be fixed soon to put the drawing into the galleries of anyone who collab'd on it
as far as figuring out who wants to collab with who just start a draw and assign some people you want to collab with, and possibly put the people's names in the comments as "collab with xxx xxx"
ideas or comments? let's collab
no image
testing
hey dave! the font is actually exactly the same, maybe it just seems different because of the layout but it's no different than the old one. i had changed it to something else when this all started but didn't like the new style and went back to the ol standard serif font
the addition of login was totally necessary though, regardless of riff raff (who be the riff raff?) it solved a bunch of problems at once - galleries being the biggest problem, the older gallery software was super buggy and crashed every other month losing tons of draws, taking days of my time to admin - not to mention now when things are drawn it goes to the correct drawr gallery automatically - i could go on and on but shit, shit shit!
logging in isn't difficult - just about any browser lets you save the password info so you don't have to click it everytime to login
joj quickly is fucked, nicely, thanks for sharing- actually have been thinking about making a 10e radio plugin thing, a little icon up top that you can click to play music made by drawrers here - i think that enough of us have songs to contribute to make it interesting
the fellow in the draw, unless he's a robot or dead, or just a drawing, or powered by something else
