If you go to your user profile:

[url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/cgi-bin/ubb/ubbmisc.cgi?action=editbio"]http://www.AmbrosiaS...?action=editbio[/url]

...you'll notice that a new field for your AIM (AOL Instant Messenger) name has been added. If you have entered your AIM name into your user profile, an icon will appear next to your web board posts, allowing people to send you an instant message via AIM by simply clicking on it.

This AIM icon (and your AIM name) also appears in your profile that other people see as well.

There's also a cool new "Members List" I've added, that allows you to easily look up members of the web board using a variety of criteria (and yes, the AIM icon appears here, too):

[url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/cgi-bin/ubb/memberlist.cgi"]http://www.AmbrosiaS.../memberlist.cgi[/url]

...enjoy!

Wow! Now you know what would be even neater is if you could see whether that person is on Instant Messange or not via Ambrosia's pages.

Thanks Andrew. I don't know who programmed it, but whoever it is, give my thanks to him too. :P

Sincerely,
Jonathan

Great idea Andrew, but I don't have AIM (threw it out). The member list is cool though. Posted Image Is there another way to access it besides clicking on the link in your post?

I don't get that. Is Andrew spamming? Could he be channeling the spirit of MotherLove?

It's called "a board-wide announcement"

It's only spam when someone else does it Posted Image

Well, when you think about it, spam is really just random acts of advertisement for the purpose of selling or getting something from you by sending it to others via mailbox whether it be E or Real. In this case, it's not spam because one: you came to them, and two: it's relevant to the operation of the site.

There! Now, with a clear conscience, I can say I enjoy this spamless messege. I can't tell you how incredibly glad I am to know that now others can get my Screenname from me without me knowing it. Posted Image
