Title: We have converted to SMF.
Post by: enwiabe on December 01, 2007, 12:54:17 am
There, Mel, you got your fudging quick reply. :P

Now, some things may be a little bit screwed up like signatures, etc. Fix that stuff yourselves, any serious problems/panics should be addressed to me. :) Enjoy the new forum. It is SEXY.

Also, this is going to be the first of many sweeping new changes/additions to come over the next 1 or 2 months. I'll keep you posted ;)

Wooo... Fun stuff :D. I'm glad to have gotten rid of phpBB :P
There should be no major bugs, but please report any minor bugs you find :)

I think you ought to remove the captions/sub-titles to all these boards. They're tacky and they're making the board look a bit strange. The title tells us enough :)

I was initially using applaud and smite quite seriously, but I see that you guys here have just thrown it around everywhere.

I think I'll continue using it minimally, but it's going to be diluted by karma ratings from the masses :(

I don't think there's any modifications for SMF to allow it to use LaTeX. I'd need to have a look. It'd definitely be helpful for math equations and stuff, though. :)

It's a language used to markup maths equations and stuff. Basically format them and make them look all neat.

Exactly. It also means that it won't be such a displeasure to write out things like "integral of <blah blah> with respect to x"

Post by: Daniel15 on December 03, 2007, 05:29:10 pm
OK, well I had to host the script on my server (don't have shell access to this one, couldn't compile it), but it won't make a difference really. LaTeX and all its dependencies takes up 133 MB of space for some reason, I'm guessing because of all its fonts :P. I made a simple modification to SMF to give it a "tex" BBCode :)

Anyways, let's try this out:
[tex]\sqrt{x^2+y^2}[/tex] →
[tex]\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex] →
[tex]\int_{-10}^{10} 2x^2 dx[/tex] →

Time for me to learn LaTex, I guess. I found some documentation at http://www-h.eng.cam.ac.uk/help/tpl/textprocessing/latex_maths+pix/latex_maths+pix.html :)

HOLY SARDINES PEOPLE!!!
wtf happened?!

lol it seems we have finally been converted to smf, the advertiser must be happy :D (lol no hints)
it looks cool

but the thing is... i have been away for only a couple of days and boom!
how long did it take u guys? i'm a member of another moderately tiny (100 ppl tiny) forum, and they've taken it down for "maintanence", it's been down for a week and is now up, still running the same old phpBB just a different skin... *sigh*

lol good jobs ppl (i.e. me say good things= u give good karma) :D
Actually, they likely upgraded to phpBB3 which looks like just a new skin but actually has a lot more functionality and power. :)

yeah i was totally surprised to find out kingmar was a girl too

I thought I was male too.

  I was quite surprised you and Coblin were Asian. Lol, no offence
