In short, P1 isn't going to stop you from being hacked; P2 will...

Captcha change: The angles used to distort the letters were also relaxed a bit from some of the extremes that were in there before. Thank Youuu! I have always had problems reading it. Especially with the rough gradient background. In fact I had contemplated changing the ttf file and make backgound1 and 2 both be the smooth one.

Permissions: Extra treat Specifically for gallery forums.
If polls are allowed in replies ( by group, forum ), then allow a poll.
If polls are allowed in topics ( by group, forum ), then allow a poll in the topic. I have always harped on this feature that if we have permissions for same we should be able to do so in a gallery forum. It was always confusing that the standard permissions apply to the forum but they did not work if you elected the one time option to be a gallery forum. Now with that said I hope we could also undo the new allowed permissions in a gallery forum if need be. Nice surprise!

Nice surprise! of course you can. just edit the forum permissions to NOT allow polls, which is how it should have been all along

Approve topics option added where needed:
Wow I thought this might have been a difficult item to deal with between topics and replies.
Thanks for the recognition.
I thought this might have been put on the back burner with so many other items to deal with.

Selecting a reply icon is allowed. why prevent it? I manually disabled anything else than the 'book' icon, even got rid of the always selectable 'empty' icon. I hate it when the forum turns into a christmas tree. But I presume that will be covered. People can choose the icon, but the admin will be able to choose WHICH are available. Really must say I'm looking forward to the release SD. Great work judging from those posts you're doing!

Having become used to frequent updates by SD, I notice that it has been since the 9th that something has been posted. Just saying.

While I am sitting here contemplating my naval, I have this stray thought on the subject of AJAX. If anyone has the time to really explain AJAX, I would appreciate it. From what I have read here and there, it would seem to have a positive and measurable impact on bandwidth and server load. That would be really good news.

I don't know, I keep telling him that sooner or later he needs to stop. But he keeps plugging on with changes.
But I think we are nearing the end of the road for this update.

Still alive, SD has a job that he comes first. I'm not renewing until SD releases an announcement for the new version. But can't wait for 7.6 and can't wait see the changes in action.

So what is the time frame for 7.7 then? Is there any specific feature you're looking for? AFAIK a timeline hasn't been drawn up and I fail to see the reason to want another version just to have another version...

Mobile friendly (iphone/android/WP7) templates based on user-agent would be nice or at least TapaTalk compatible. Also mentioned, Ajax. And more version numbers. We always want more version numbers

and we really will be coming out with a 7.5.8 first. this enhances the stopforumspam to use a fall back DB, when needed and other things like not forcing using fsockopen, when php is configured to not allow it etc.. also all the little buglets that have been noted in 7.5.7 will be cleaned.. and a few other things.. so we are kind of borrowing 7.6 features and pulling some of them into the incremental releases for now. no time frame, but it shouldn't be a long way off.. another thing with incremental releases is that they can be counted on to not suddenly break, vs a HUGE increment which has a lot of growing pains. matter of fact, this should have been what we were doing all along. to NOT promise v8 or even v7.6, but to slowly improve in small / key areas... my bad on that one

Exactly what ID242 said, and a post before my question...
Q. just wondering if 7.6 is going to be iphone / mobile-friendly?
A. iphone / android / mobile -- is in 7.7
Mobile version or TapaTalk compatible is really important to us.

Well I think that it has been stated already that the mobile theme would not even make it till after v7.6 and it would probably be tapatalk.

A side note.
Thank you to SD for re-engaging here on the forums. It really does help a lot to hear that things are moving. They may be small incremental items but progress none the less.
Looking forward to 7.6 because that will truly reflect all your cleaned and optimized code. Not looking forward to the "growing pains" of a new code base and the associated table changes. Oh well the price of progress I suppose.
