Although we were sad to leave Conforums behind, there are definitely benefits to using Proboards. Here are some great features you may not have noticed. - Avatar maker allows each member to create a custom avatar. If you want to try it out, click on the "Profile" link in the top menu bar and select the "Edit Profile" button on the right when viewing your profile.
- Upload files! This feature was not available at our previous home and it is handy. You may upload bitmaps used by your code, for instance.
- A "like" system is part of this forum. If you find a post to be especially useful or well written, you can click on the "like" button to show your approval. The like button is a "thumbs up" button at the top right of a post.
If you have a favorite new feature, reply here and tell us about it.

An important forum feature can be found in your Profile section. To access your profile, click the "Profile" link in the top menu bar. It will open to a summary page. That page has tabs that allow you to check your forum activity, notifications and some other stuff. Click the "Notifications" tab to see where people have quoted you or "liked" one of your posts.
On the right side of your profile page, you'll find an "Edit Profile" button. Use this to edit important profile settings. You can change many things, like your forum settings, privacy, personal information, notification settings and avatar.

The text area where you type your messages is versatile. With the click of a button on the menu bar you can change some of your text to bold, italic, underline or strikethrough. You can change the font face and size, and even the color. You can justify the text in four ways. You can add lists or tables quite easily. You can also add links, code quotes, smilies and image.
There are two tabs at the bottom of the text area. One is labeled "Preview." When this tab is selected, you'll see your message just as other see it when it's been posted. If the "BBCode" tag is selected, you'll see the tags that cause text to be bold, list items, etc. Choose the viewing mode you like. I sometimes like the Preview mode, but the BBCode mode allows me to fine-tune things like lists.

A NEW forum feature has been implemented.
As it was, there was a link to the most recent posts at the bottom of the forum. We've added a button to the top menu bar that will take you to a list of recent posts. I was tired of scrolling to the bottom of the forum page to access the recent posts.

The top of the forum features a colored header with a menu button bar along the lower edge. Below the colored header, you'll find a white text bar. If you hover over the left side, "Liberty BASIC Community Forum" text, you'll get a drop-down menu of board categories. Scroll to a category and a list of boards will appear to the right. If a board has a new post, the "new" icon will appear next to its name.
There are many ways to navigate the forum!
