Hey, everyone!
I just wanted to put up an announcement about the new Post Types that are going to crop up all over the place. It's a whole new way to express yourselves in the Gaia Online Forums! Here's a small sample of what's available:
These are all accessible from the normal "Post Reply" screen, just like when replying to a topic normally.
Also, the Topic View / Thread View got a minor facelift courtesy of VO. The profile bar has been moved up a little, and the common buttons (quote/edit) are revitalized! Even the default speaking bubble got an upgrade! 3nodding
FAQ
Q I can't see the post type screen...
A Usually, this is caused by not having Javascript enabled. Like many of the features on Gaia, we ask everyone to enable Javascript for functionality. If you don't (or can't) enable Javascript, you will still be able to post regularly and see all the posts on the site.
Q I am getting an error with...
A Please post your error in the Q&A Forum. There is a sticky dedicated to error reporting for this feature:

Q How can I disable my post types / they are crashing my browser! sad
A Turning off stylehseets can prevent the heavy avatar load, as can reducing your browser cache. The image load of the new system is comprable to the "event" forums, which have 40+ avatars in the page header, and shouldn't be an issue on most computers.
