Little problems
« on: February 07, 2006, 06:41:16 pm »
I feel like nitpicking, so lets go through the little problems. :evil: You will fix them my slave kittens! :D
  • Little dash at the top left hand corner of the forums. I believe it is new, but its somewhat distracting. Its like a dot outside a box of writing. You look at the dot D:
  • Little black bar underneath \"Development History\" Link. Its an ugly little void of darkness. Perhaps a small parameter change should fix it? Also, change the font on \"Development History\". Times New Roman is so ugly and plain :(


Now, thats about all I have to nitpick about, If you find little problems, be sure to post them here! :D

I protest the font jab. Times New Roman happens to be one of my favorites.

I never noticed the dash either. Thank you so much for pointing it out :|. *Tries to ignore it, but it\'s there...always there...watching...looking at me...(McNaire starts to go insane)*

Had to double check to make sure but while the font is Times here at work on FF 1.0.7,  at home on FF 1.5 it looks more like Arial or Century

It seems that there is no font specified for that text and whatever is the system default is used.

In Firefox it would be the font specified in Edit -> Preferences -> Fonts & Colors -> Serif. In Opera Tools -> Preferences -> Advanced -> Fonts -> Webpage normal text. In Internet Explorer Tools -> Internet Options -> General -> Fonts -> Web page font.

Everybody feel free to chose your favorite font and stop complaining ;)

Belive it or not, but this dash is AFTER \"Development History\", Your eyes betray You,  check the page source :).
Probably it is remnant of comment tag (-->) + one extra tag + one extra carriage return + one extra table cell ()

BTW: looks like planeshift.oodlz.com has new IP and it is... empty.

The dash is still creepy and annoying.

If that little dash bugs ya then I could really have fun messing with your heads.  I had one boss who I almost drove insane by moving the items on his desk a centimeter this way and an inch another way.  Every morning he would sit down and have to check every item and reposition it exactly to where it was, stapler, mouse pad, mouse, coffee cup, ... you get the idea.  I\'ll never forget the day he \'snapped\'.  It was a work of art!
No good deed ever goes unpunished!

here\'s another little problem,

when you read all the newly posted stuff in threads in a forum. the envelope on the main page still shows there is stuff to be read.

hardly because the shadow built the lexx.

I usually hit \"Mark All Forums as Read\" anyway, since the still-appear-as-new problem seems to be eternal for me.

It follows you across the monitor as you move left to right  it is just creepy..:/

Hi

I find the dash annoying too. Like some secret counter or javascript that does dubious things in the background.

Of course peek in the source reveals that it\'s just a dash typo. It\'s outside the table cell, so the browser seems to put it before the whole table. Shouldn\'t be hard to fix. Just requires some... authority.
