Sun, 26 Sep 2010 17:42:00 +0000 Brian Neal Follow on to last rev (r292) for #126. Missed updating a shoutbox template. Also the repoze.timeago package uses UTC time by default. Change this to local time for now until we decide to switch over to UTC for everything.
Sun, 26 Sep 2010 17:27:08 +0000 Brian Neal Fix #126. Incorporate the repoze timeago function as a new 'elapsed' template filter. This should save space in the shoutbox when displaying dates. Also used in the new posts forum template tag.

Fri, 24 Sep 2010 02:12:09 +0000 Brian Neal Closing #98. Animated GIFs were losing their transparency and animated properties when saved as avatars. Reworked the avatar save process to only run the avatar through PIL if it is too big. This preserves the original uploaded file if it is within the desired size settings. This may still mangle big animated gifs. If this becomes a problem, then maybe look into calling the PIL Image.resize() method directly. Moved the PIL image specific functions from bio.forms to a new module: core.image for better reusability in the future.
Thu, 23 Sep 2010 01:16:26 +0000 Brian Neal Fixing #115: time zone picker javascript doesn't work on IE8. Apparently IE doesn't like array.indexOf(), but jQuery saves the day with a utility function that provides the same functionality.
