    Is there a way to increase the max width of sig images to 600? I'm used to making my sigs that size and I have many I want to use but they are too big :(

    We will not be increasing the max width of sig images to 600. Signatures beyond the dimensions 500x300 are extremely large and take a longer time to load onto the page.

    When you're in the text editor (to write up a post), there's a little smiley face icon on the top row (2 icons to the left of "Size"). Clicking on that will open a small space right below the text editor, with some of the smilies to choose from. Just click on any of them, and the syntax will be automatically inserted.
    You can also click "Show All" to view all of the possible Azelf smilies.

    The syntax for the Azelf smilies are the same (or very similar) as the common smilies; the versions just here are of Azelf because this is Lake Valor, so it's thematic.

    Hopefully this sufficiently answered your question; if not, feel free to ask for more detail.

    So I heard there is a ranking system to lv? Is there?, also the signatures for pictures added can only be done if contributor member or contributor+, right?

    Signatures are available to anyone; you edit it yourself when in your User CP, and clicking the 'Signature' tab. There are a few signature rules, but the major one is the size can't be more than 500x500 pixels.

    As for ranking system I'm not quite sure what you mean; could you clarify that a bit?

    By points, like how on top of my pic it says, "school kid", I think you buy at the Lv shop to rename it, so isn't there 1 separate to what I said?, would be pretty cool but pointless yet again, it would show how dedicated you are to being on the forums much like the moderator status and such

    There is actually an item to change it. The part of the forum you are referring to is called a "member title", though otherws may refer to it as an "usertitle". It costs 10 pokepoints to change your member title.
    All you go is go to the Shop > User Changes > Change Member Title.

    Oh, that kind of ranking. That's what you meant.

    In addition to what LostSpirit said above, if you don't go for a custom usertitle, the default usertitle that appears above your name will increase with post count, yes.
    It will change about every 10 posts until you get to 100 posts, after which it will change about every 50, until you get to 1000. After that I don't know if it changes at all.

    Oh, here, I found the list:

    Youngster - 0 posts
    Bug Catcher - 10 posts
    School Kid - 20 posts
    Camper - 30 posts
    Tuber - 40 posts
    Swimmer - 50 posts
    Sailor - 70 posts
    Hiker - 100 posts
    PKMN Breeder - 150 posts
    Black Belt - 200 posts
    Collector - 250 posts
    Poké Maniac - 300 posts
    Ruin Maniac - 350 posts
    Hex Maniac - 400 posts
    Psychic - 450 posts
    Kindler - 500 posts
    Bird Keeper - 550 posts
    PKMN Ranger - 600 posts
    Ace Trainer - 650 posts
    Dragon Tamer - 700 posts
    Rival - 800 posts
    Pokémon Professor - 1000 posts
    Valor Veteran - 2000 posts
    Valor Knight - 5000 posts

    For images you need an image URL. You can't upload an image directly; you would need to upload it to an external site like Imgur or Photobucket (or here, if you wanted), and then nab the URL from that.

    Then you enclose it within the "img" tag. For example...

    Code:
    [img=http://lakevalor.net/uploads/gallery/album_21/gallery_4732_21_173145.png]
    produces:

    I'd just like to add that all donator ranks (VIP, Contributor, and Contributor+) can edit their member title an unlimited amount of times, and can even add special effects to them too! :)

    Festival Plaza should have a thread prefix for Battle.

    Maybe a forum/sub forum for the Pokémon anime? I don't know if there is one. Also since many people here write or read fanfiction, perhaps a page about shipping since they are an important part of fan fictions. If you don't know what shipping is its the idea that two characters belong in a relationship. Example Amourshipping is the idea that Ash Ketchum and Serena belong in a relationship.

    Great idea! We had one, but I guess it was never selected again when we condensed the forums. Anyhow, there you go!

    I added the ability for you to add a prefix to your threads having to do with Anime/Manga.

    Make sure to add it for it to show up on the topic preview.

    Improve the compatability with smart phones and Android since phone users can't do a number of stuff pc users can do, 1 of them is dragging medals in a order you want it in, there are a few other example I am sure of. It's because of the mouse drag suggestion on phone as when we tap on a medall and hold to slide, it will just say open or save pic or something like that

    Don't worry, I actually started recreating those pages with draggable items last night and the new versions include a fix for mobile devices. :)

    When is the update coming out if I may ask?

    Won't the update be easier if you add a new model for mobile phones found at the bottom of the site labeled "Desktop version"

    If not wouldn't that be a suggestion, all the things on phone would then be the same as desktop then, easy

    It's planned to be released sometime tonight, or tomorrow afternoon at the latest.
    The layout will be the exact same and will function the same on any device, so a new model won't be necessary.

    I figure it's about time to express my thoughts in a more public forum than just discussing it in PM's with a few users.

    This is regarding all of the donating ranks of LV. More specifically, the lack of donating that I see happening after one gets their new usergroup.

    While I'm glad to see that the cost of the donating ranks (VIP, Contributor, and Contributor+) have gone up, I don't feel this is quite enough, personally. Since the since requires a lot of maintenance and funds to keep it running every year, we tend to have to resort to discounting ranks towards that time of year in order to keep it up. While this seems rather mean to say, as I haven't donated much to the site compared to many others around the site, I think there should be a different layout for those ranks.

    Basically, this could be broken down into 2 ranks as opposed to 3:
    • Contributor -- where the member donates a certain amount within an LV fiscal year
    • Contributor+ -- the member is on a sort of continuous donation stream of X amount per year in order to keep the rank
    If the member stops donating, they're awarded a Former Donator medal or something similar where they're thanked for their contributions, but they no longer maintain the donator rank they had before.

    Again, I know this is rather controversial, but I think it would genuinely help the site. Heck, VIP could be the "former donator" rank if it was decided that way. But even more so, I think there should be a way to distinguish the people that ACTIVELY contribute monetarily to the site--not just the people that once or twice threw a $5 to get a nameglow.

    To clear up some confusion I know will come about--the above reasons are why I am no longer Contributor+. I no longer donate to the site for financial problems I have, so I don't think I should have such rank anymore.
