3) Once you click on the link, you'll see the content has been saved. Once you click "Restore Content" you will see your post has been restored and you can continue where you left off.







Next, I will explain how to change your secondary color and wallpaper. The secondary color is mostly visible in the Light theme, but it does show some changes if used along with a partially transparent wallpaper.

1) Click the tools at the bottom right corner of the screen.



2) It will pop up the color and wallpaper selections.



3) If you click the top part with the hand you will get a color selector. Try some different colors or put in the hex code of the color you want. You can also select some different wallpaper tiles.



4) Lets say you uploaded a wallpaper to our "Random Wallpapers" gallery or you would like to use a wallpaper that has already been uploaded by someone else. Go to the image you want to use and right click on the image. As you will see in this pic, the default windows right click menu shows up, but so does our gallery right click menu. You will want to click on the gallery menu to see it.



5) You will now want to right click on "Direct link to this image file" and then click "Copy Link Location"





6) Now go back to your skin tool menu and right click and paste the link to the wallpaper into the custom background area and then click on "Change"



7) Now that you are done, click on the tools again to close the menu.



8) And thats it!

I fully understand how KOTOR II got screwed over by time constraints. I'd like to see Obsidian get another shot at this.]]> Sun, 10 Feb 2013 02:19:52 +0000 a597e50502f5ff68e3e25b9114205d4a http://www.ancientclan.com/_/ancient-clan-news/new-light-theme-r61

The new "Light" theme is up! As of this post, all the old themes have been removed and the "Perfect Dark" theme has been renamed to just plain "Dark" because I am done with the different variations I was testing out. The light theme has a few issues with it at the moment, but it will be getting an update in about a week. Enjoy!]]> Mon, 21 Jan 2013 00:11:34 +0000 bd4c9ab730f5513206b999ec0d90d1fb http://www.ancientclan.com/_/ancient-clan-news/new-perfect-dark-theme-r54

This is our new default theme. Welcome to the new Ancient Clan! You can find the new theme by choosing it at the bottom left corner of your screen.]]> Mon, 14 Jan 2013 02:47:19 +0000 1d7f7abc18fcb43975065399b0d1e48e http://www.ancientclan.com/_/ancient-clan-news/blogs-are-back-online-r52


Our blogs are finally converted and back online! For the few of you that had existing blogs, you will need to go to you blog, click on "Options", then "Manage Settings" and check all your settings, privacy, etc. You will also need to click on "Add Blocks" and choose whatever blocks you would like to have displayed in the right column. If you had categories you will need to create new categories and then edit each individual blog entry to move them into the correct category. Also, if you had any inline images, you will notice that the old vb attach tag does not work and you will have to edit your blog entry to properly put your images back into place. If not then the images are still there, just grouped together at the bottom of the entry. I think the only person affected by the image issue is just me. Check out the blogs and if you want to make one, help yourself, blogs are available to all members.]]> Sun, 13 Jan 2013 17:24:20 +0000 37a749d808e46495a8da1e5352d03cae http://www.ancientclan.com/_/ancient-clan-news/jurassic-park-iv-coming-june-2014-r51

After years of rumors, the fourth installment of Jurassic Park has been officially announced to hit theaters June 13, 2014. No details on a director or on the plot. Steven Spielberg will direct the film that is believed to be in the writing process under Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver. Jaffa and Silver are best know for penning Rise of the Planet of the Apes. This should cautiously excite fans and give them something to look forward to after the 3D release of the original 1993 film due out April 5th of this year.

The gallery is open!

You can also go to your profile and easily view all the likes you have received or given. Once the gallery and blogs are back up, you will also be able to see all your likes in those as well by making your selections in the image below:



Next we have the "Follow this.. (topic, image, album, blog, etc.)" feature. By using the follow feature you can get instant or email notifications when something has been updated or replied to. You can also go into your profile settings and set yourself to automatically follow content that you create or to auto follow content that you reply to.



You can also think of it as an easy way to bookmark content because you can easily click on the "Content | Follow" link to see when the items you are following were last replied to. You can also choose which content to look at with the menu on the left:



The last feature for this post is the "My Media" button. This is probably my favorite new feature. In any post, reply, gallery / article / blog comment you make, you can click on the My Media button to easily insert an image from any of your previously attached images or gallery images.



You will never have to keep re-attaching images you like to use over and over again. Attach it once, or add it to your gallery to easily use that image whenever you want.

Its still a work in progress, but at least it is now more useable. If you were using the dark theme before, you will have to re-select the Dark theme at the bottom left of the screen to start using the new one.]]> Sat, 29 Dec 2012 21:37:41 +0000 42a0e188f5033bc65bf8d78622277c4e http://www.ancientclan.com/_/ancient-clan-news/happy-holidays-merry-christmas-r33 ]]> Tue, 25 Dec 2012 14:49:37 +0000 9fc3d7152ba9336a670e36d0ed79bc43 http://www.ancientclan.com/_/ancient-clan-news/features-you-may-not-know-about-r31
1) When you log in, the "View New Content" link at the top right of the screen is the easiest way to see what new content has been added since your last visit or over a set period of time. Once you are on this screen you can use the other links on the left side to choose what kind of content you want to see and by what time period:



2) This little star icon indicates that this is a topic that you have participated in. The regular circles are topics you have not created or replied to:



3) All of these links will take you to the first post you have not yet read:



4) These links will take you to the last post in the topic:



5) If you hover over a topic, you will see this icon, it allows you to see a preview of that topic:



6) This is the topic preview:



7) If you hover over a username anywhere on the site, it will show you a profile card that has quick links to that User's profile, their gallery, blog, send a private message, etc.

I also added a tag list to the forum sidebar and Recent Posts (not recent topics, I'm looking into setting up both) are now located on the main page. This should be useful for the mobile theme as it will now show recent posts on the main page before showing new articles.]]> Sun, 23 Dec 2012 21:06:58 +0000 9b8619251a19057cff70779273e95aa6 http://www.ancientclan.com/_/ancient-clan-news/shoutbox-re-opened-r22

You'll also notice that the url right now is http://www.ancientclan.com/ipbforums

We will be changing this once we finalize the conversion of those two sections of the site. Once everything is set in place, the urls will be:

http://www.ancientclan.com/

http://www.ancientclan.com/forums

http://www.ancientclan.com/gallery

http://www.ancientclan.com/blogs

You will be able to access all sections of the site using your username / password from our old forums.

Please login and check your profiles and settings! There are a variety of notification settings that will be very useful to you, but you will have to turn them because they are new settings that did not convert over from our vBulletin site.

New member registration is turned back on! To prevent spam, all new members are restricted to making 15 posts a day and they need 31 total posts to be auto-promoted to full member status.

You can change themes at the bottom left hand menu. We currently have the default, Sand, mobile (your cell phone will auto load this theme), and the Dark theme.. The dark theme is still a work in progress.

If you have any questions, please ask.]]> Fri, 21 Dec 2012 02:09:29 +0000 5ef059938ba799aaa845e1c2e8a762bd
