PM Pop Up

I like the pop up. Since you cant see "You have 1 new message" at the top, I would keep forgetting to scroll to the bottom to check them

Or, change the pop up so you can select View Now, Ignore etc...so you can close the pop up and read the message when you're ready - like the PM Notifier code on Database.

There's one built into PB... You shouldn't force one on the users!

There's one built in? I've never noticed. All I ever saw was Hey, you have x new PM's at the top of the screen next to the forum logo. But since that's moved to the bottom now.....

How about a pulsating round blue orb in the top corner of the screen if you have new messages, like a single traffic light lol

How do you activate the default one?

[Wrighty]

PM Preferences - PM Page ... click PM Preferences & then enable PM Pop Up

I am aware of the built in one, but as said not everyone has it turned on, nor do some people know of it. So it is easier just to have a code for it.

I agree with Jye here

I do like the pulsating blue orb idea lolz Have just a normal orb pulsating with a NEW PM in it.

I didn't know about the built in one

If there is already a feature for it, I suppose you could make it an announcement letting members know thus rendering the code obsolete.

Yeah the pulsating blue orb idea would look good, no idea how easy or difficult it would be to do. I know the PM Notifier code pops out a image with text next to it telling you when you have new messages and the course of action you want to take, but making that appear in a top corner with no text, could be a little more tricky...

I like the glowing blue orb idea. ill talk 2 Jye about this, i agree with wrighty.

Ya, I think there is a code to add into the menu part allowing to add an extra button for anything, maybe just add the orb there...?

I don't think it would actually look right there, on the grille, personally. Let me thinkies! Bbl!

Btw, I don't mean like On/Off icons, I mean nothing there at all when no new PM's, just the image/pulsating orb when there is one

Well I've been looking into possibilities, and, no copyright intended, but just wanted to show you want I was picturing in my head, something like this but a lot smaller (maybe 50 pixels squared), not as detailed (no metal frame around it) and not as much a radiating flash, something more subtle and only a thin glow to it but a flashing effect, it's just 2 frames in this animation but it's really well created and I thought something a little like this appearing in the top corner of the screen when I signed on letting me know I had new PM's would be really cute lol
