Site Discussion

Discussions about the layout, color theme, display, ect. of the site. We'll keep track of changes here too. If you have any questions, irks, or concerns about the website's appearance or operation post them here.

Moving these posts into the site discussion thread.

I am trying to make the white boarders on the left and right flat black like the text in the banner. There seems to be a glitch with the CSS code and it is not showing up when replaced by pure color or an image. Hopefully I'll be able to figure it out but in case not, I hope the white's ok.

I'm also noticing now the autospacing just stretches the page out when you type long things. That should be an easy fix however.

Current plans for the site as far as graphical updates, etc.:

Fix page stretching on posts longer than the banner width.
Change the white field background that appears around the banner to black.
Reduce the number of available emoticons to a reasonable number.
Create custom themed buttons for the personal taskbar (those images that say profile, mp, etc).
Set accepted avatar size parameters.
Set signature parameters.
Create custom buttons for quote, edit, delete, etc.
Create custom mod buttons.
Fill out FAQ.

Forum auto-resizing problem has been fixed.

Sigs are currently not showing up. Should be an easy fix, though old posts still might not show sigs.

Signatures are now enabled, make sure you have 'attach signature' enabled in the options area. You should only have to select it once.

Correction, the signature option is in your profile, if you do not want to have to manually attach your signature every time you must select the option in your profile to always attach.

Smilies limited, there should be 12.

These are the smilie options you should have:

Okay, I just need an avatar now.

I have added a new icon; when a Story forum is finished, such as the prologue is, I will switch it to 'published', which is represented like this: Only with my permission may you post in a published forum as these are parts of the story that we have completed.

Changed forum images from .GIFs to .PNGs, much better resolution. Will try and do this with the rest of the logos.

Is there a button that will let us jump to new posts, instead of scrolling throuh all the old ones?

What do you mean by button? There is a little link that says 'action' on the right above the gold bar that you can click on and get a bunch of hotlinks to new posts, but I'm not sure if it goes to the new post itself or just the page. I do know if you want to link to a specific post you can.

Also, all the icons previously made are all .PNGs now so basically HD.

aaaaaaaddddddddssssss xP unless its a requirement xD

Ads should disappear when you log in, I will investigate

They have not yet, for me.

This is a hard one since Admins can't see ads... I'll continue to mess around with it, post here if they vanish.

New banner.

Behold, a black background! HTML is my bitch!

And the ads are gone.

Modified the 'No-New' symbol to a horizontal oriented clasp. The angular clasp will remain 'new post'.

All new Chaos Theory themed buttons! We are in fucking business now.
