    Your Thoughts: New Muppet Central Forum Features

    I like the new layout and the fact that the forum isn't crammed into a narrow area anymore.

    Your Thoughts: Muppet Central Forum Upgrade May 26, 2018

    When are you going to stop forcing things to be a maximum of 768px wide? It looks weird having all that empty space on either side of the forum.

    Fan Poll: Favorite Sesame Street Christmas Production

    My choice is also Christmas Eve on Sesame Street in part because it's the only one I've ever seen. I have fond memories of watching it on TV every year as a kid in the 80s and early 90s.

    A few suggestions

    1024x768 doesn't work too well on widescreen displays. Besides that, I'm not going to switch to a lower resolution just to make this site appear wider.

    A few suggestions

    I would like to see the forum made wider. I have a 15.6" laptop with 1280x800 resolution and about 2/3rds of the page is wasted on either side of the forum.

    Comics?

    In terms of comic books, I pretty much just read Archie comics these days, but when I was a kid I also liked Disney and Harvey comics. As far as comic strips in the paper go - my favorite right now is Pearls Before Swine, but I also love Zits, Get Fuzzy, Dilbert, Dinette Set and numerous others.

    Muppet Magic

    My copy of the Muppet Magic DVD arrived today, and I thought it was great. For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about, Muppet Magic is a DVD with 19 classic Muppet sketches from The Ed Sullivan Show, including the 1966 debut, the original "Java" and "Mnah Mnah" sketches and several...

    Penguins or rats?

    While the "Well excuuuuuuse us for living!!!!!" line in Muppets Take Manhattan is hilarious, I have to go with the rats, because they were all given individual personalities and were always up to something (for instance, in Muppet Treasure Island, Rizzo turned the treasure hunt into a cruise...

    The Great Santa Clause Switch

    This has a lot of Ed Sullivan sketches on it. While I haven't seen it yet (I just ordered it), it seems to be really good. I would love to see them put all the old Muppets TV specials and TGSCS on DVD at some point. EDIT: Hmmm... Looks like ToughPigs has exceeded their bandwidth limit again.

    "To Morrow"

    Just in case anyone is wondering about the town mentioned in the song (episode 6 of The Muppet Show if you haven't seen it yet...), Morrow is a real town. It's about 27 miles northeast of Cincinnati. More info can be found at http://www.morrow-today.org.

    I've only been here a few months, but never really have cared much for vBulletin. Of course, I'm probably a bit biased since I'm on the support team for another forum system...

    Muppets Season 1 releases Aug 9, 2005

    Interesting... I got it at Best Buy here in Cincinnati today and only paid $29.99 + tax (about $32) for it. This makes the 3rd TV show on DVD that I have. I've got Top Cat: The Complete Series as well as Seasons 1 and 2 of Rocky & Bullwinkle (almost done with Season 2).

    Help with submitting new threads

    Ok. I did some asking and found out what the problem is. PHP includes a setting that limits how much memory a script can use, and apparently posting in that forum requires more than 8MB of memory. So, you should ask your host to increase the memory_limit value in php.ini to "9M" (9MB). If they...

    I'll ask around and see what I can find out. I've seen that type of error message before, but don't remember exactly what causes it or what can be done to fix it.
