New Feature: Screenshots
Posted by Jarudin at 17:29 pm on November 17th 2008
So I finally got around to doing this. I've been planning to do it for a long time actually.

You can now easily add screenshots to your description.

The code is as follows: (without the underscore ofcourse)
[_screenshot]
[_img]http://www.mysite.com/myimage.jpg[_/img]
[_url=http://www.mysite.com/snapshot007.jpg][_img]http://www.mysite.com/thumbnail007.jpg[_/img][_/url]
[_/screenshot]

This example will add two screenshots: myimage.jpg and snapshot007.jpg.
You can add as many images to the screenshot block as you want. You can add as many screenshot blocks as you want.
As you can see there are two ways to add screenshots. If you add a link around the image it will try to make a proper thumbnail (instead of shrinking the image), the method with the link is ofcourse recommended.

You can optinoally set the width of the thumbnails, the default value is 150.
[_screenshot=200][_/screenshot] will make the thumbnails 200px wide (and adjust the height accordingly).
The maximum width is 300.

New icons / New profile settings / Overlay icons
Posted by Jarudin at 10:28 am on November 16th 2008
I uploaded a new (extended) icon set. If you're seeing strange images press ctrl+F5 to force your browser to fetch the new icon set from the server.

Also, I've made some changes to the Profile page:
  • First off all I've added tabs to make navigation easier, I will do this in more pages later.
  • Secondly I've added two options:
    • I've added an opt-out option to keep statistics, or not. If you don't want the tracker to keep your statistics be sure to select 'no', keep in mind that you will also not receive update messages when a torrent is swapped or deleted when you have selected 'no'.
    • I've added an option that allows you to customize your 'paranoia' level. Default setting is level 2. Level 0 shows no statistics, level 3 show everything. Level 1 or higher is recommended for uploaders (but is not enforced).
.
Update: Overlay icons
We now (finally) have overlay icons for torrents :D The overlay icons will always be YOUR icons, even when you visit someone else's userpage. The overlay icons match the arrangement on your userpage. As it is now it will only show one icon, I might change that ('collision' can occur if you're, for instance, seeding a torrent on your wishlist).

Anime Revolution open for public testing
Posted by Jarudin at 6:50 am on November 10th 2008
Anime Revolution, the site geoffreak has been working on for the past few months, is now open for public testing.
From what I've understood Anime Revolution is going to be an anime Encyclopaedia, combining features from AniDB, Anime News Network and Anime-Planet.
So if you can spare a few minutes go over there, sign up, check it out and leave some feedback :)

--Jarudin--

Edit (MarchHare): It's worth noting that ARev is still in its late Alpha stage, so not all features are functional at this time. This does mean, however, that new features are constantly being added. So now would be a good time to request new features.  :)

Torrents reencoded
Posted by Jarudin at 18:10 pm on November 8th 2008
I just reencoded all the torrents on BoxTorrents. I removed useless information from the .torrents and set all the private flags.
If you get an error when trying to download a torrent or when trying to load it in your torrent client, post it here.
Also, all infohashes should now be correct again for all clients (Azureus had some troubles before). If you still get 'unregistered torrent' even after re-downloading from the site post it here.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

No multiple user accounts
Posted by Jarudin at 15:18 pm on October 5th 2008
I would once again like to remind users that it is not and never will be allowed to make/have multiple user accounts.

One account per person per lifetime.

psyEdit: I would also like to take this opportunity to point out that our Offers section is made public for people to post useful comments. Any users posting stupid/useless comments (especially 'approve this' ) will be warned.

Ratio Change & Bonus Points
Posted by Malus at 21:49 pm on October 1st 2008
Just a quick reminder. We're getting a lot of questions about this. We know that your ratio is not up to date. This is because we recently changed servers and are currently using a database backup from 10+ days ago. It was our most recent DB backup.

We will not give out upload credit or bonus points to anyone. So please stop asking. We have a large amount of BoxTorrent members, its impossible.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused but in all respect the server switch was necessary and took top priority.

Edited: Forgot to mention. Any new members who recently registered as of 10 days ago, you have to re-register. Those accounts were lost as well. Thanks for the reminder tomoyo-chan.
