Questions about editing Registration
Is there a way to change the registration page?
Also, I'm looking for a way to add a general rules page that newly registered users have to see before they can draw. Would that be the "News" page, the "Notice" page, or the "Banner" page?
If it could be on the registration page, that would be fantastic, but I'm a little nervous about directly editing any of the php files - this is my first Oekaki

Re: Questions about editing Registration
You would just need to edit the register.php page to include the rules at the top or something. OR if you don't want to touch the register page directly, you could just take the register page and delete everything there and replace it with the rules or something and call it something like rules.php. Then at the bottom of rules.php you would have something like "Continue to Register" link that would take you to the register page.
You would still have to edit the header to direct to rules.php instead of register.php though ^^;

Re: Questions about editing Registration
Thanks! That'll work out just fine, I think.
Now for a more 'Kaki centric question: I'm having a problem saving "re-touches" of pngs made with OekakiBBS. I'm using OSX, and I've tried Firefox and Safari, but either way, I get a "data transfer error" whenever I try to touch-up anything made with OekakiBBS.
Is this an issue of the applet or something that I did wrong?
Thanks again for your help.

Re: Questions about editing Registration
OekakiBBS is a very buggy applet, and it wouldn't surprise me if (like many early Java applets), it relies on functions that are specific to Microsoft's version of Java. Really, none of the applets bundled with OP are very stable or standards-compliant, but OekakiBBS is particularly troublesome.
I completely removed it from Wacintaki for this very reason, though it's still distributed with Wax.
The fact that Microsoft Java ("Virtual Machine") has special features compared to Sun Java was a major issue that caused a lot of arguments between the two companies. Don't feel sorry for Sun, though. They've caused more than their share of compatibility issues with their own platform.
