Fionavar Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 (edited) Line 'em up and we'll find a way to lay 'em out ... Aesthetics Profile Section: White background for User, Last Visitors & Friends (Likely CSS Menus setting) The buttons ("Add Reply" , "New Topic" etc..) are now a little off color from the background so they don't blend in. This is intended to be presented in this fashion To Admin: This is also a GIF that could be adjusted to blend should it be desired. Smilies: Some have a weird 'white' rim about them The emoticons in question are designed for a light skinned theme. The small Obsidian logo that used to be on the browser tabs is now a little blue triangle v thing (see screen shot). The highlight colour in Comments in Profile makes it very difficult to read the text and is VERY bright (does not mesh with Obsidian skin) Original PostI don't recall this being mentioned yet: I'm guessing the green outline around forum subsections that have been minimized should not be there. Happens for all the sections except the "Board Settings" at the bottom. I'm using FF2. An intentional feature to draw attention to the fact that a section has been collapsed. In the friends list, friends who are still pending the approval of the other person still have the difficult to read white background. Example below. The visual theme of the post a message window clashes with that of the board (not so pretty, but I like the new functionality). Forum Icon: Difference between new post post/no new posts too similar in 'brightness' In Reply window, the post topic button is not immediately accessible w/o scrolling - anyway to tighten up the spacing of all of the new options? Possibility to have a lighter skin option? The 'edit' button has 2 editor choices: Full & Quick. Is there a way to default one? BugZ Ignore function does not work in-thread. When trying to view my attachment (clicking on it) in the "Post Preview" it popped up a new window (which was resized to the size of the picture): "Sorry, an error occurred. If you are unsure on how to use a feature, or don't know why you got this error message, try looking through the help files for more information." "The error returned was: Sorry, but you do not have permission to use this feature. If you are not logged in, you may do so using the form below if available."Edit: However when going back to edit my post, viewing my atachment through the "Post Preview" worked just fine. Original PostThere seems to be an issue with the smilie box and the use of the 'next' button. Not all of the smilies are displayed when using this feature. Unread post marker/function does not update properly.

Pidesco Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 (edited) Some emoticons have a white border around them. Also, ) does not show the correct smiley. Edit: Either friends aren't working properly, or I don't know how to use them. Every time I try to add one, nothing happens.

LadyCrimson Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 The Add Friends seems to be working fine for me. It only adds a name to your profile list - it doesn't auto-add your name to their list. “Things are as they are.

Pidesco Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 The Add Friends seems to be working fine for me. It only adds a name to your profile list - it doesn't auto-add your name to their list. Apparently, for me it only works with IE. "Topics Posts Blog Comments Friends Settings" Also, all the tabs in the profiles only work with IE. I'm using Firefox 2.0 "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian touristI am Dan Quayle of the Romans.I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands.Heja Sverige!!Everyone should cuffawkle more.The wrench is your friend.

LadyCrimson Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 I'm using Firefox 1.5.0.1, works both w/profile buttons and in the userpanel options area. Using any possible add-ons that could be blocking something? “Things are as they are.

Pidesco Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 (edited) I don't think so. Would Dom Inspector make a difference? Edit: I have no idea what just happened, but after uploading a personal photo to my profile using IE, everything started to work as normal in Firefox.

Fionavar Posted January 30, 2007 Author Share Posted January 30, 2007 Pidesco could you sum up the current concern if the friends issue is resolved - just the smiley @ this point?

Pidesco Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 The friends and the tabs issue is resolved, the smiley isn't. The smiley I'm seeing when I post :)) is the same as when I post :) (except for the white borders). I'm guessing this problem is universal, and not exclusive to me.

LostStraw Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 (edited) Visual quirks: 1. The visual theme of the post a message window clashes with that of the board (not so pretty, but I like the new functionality). 2. The buttons ("Add Reply" , "New Topic" etc..) are now a little off color from the background so they don't blend in. 3. The small Obsidian logo that used to be on the browser tabs is now a little blue triangle v thing (see screen shot).

Pidesco Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 I don't have that icon problem in the tab. However, one thing I've just noticed is that topics with developer posts no longer show the appropriate "O" icon.

Rosbjerg Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Hey what's with the Blog feature - and why does it say: "You have no permission to view the Blogs" will it be implemented later? or is it working already (and I is stoooopid)?

Pidesco Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 I cleared the cache, and the problem persists. Also, after clearing the cache, the tab icon turned into the blue V loststraw mentioned in his post. @Rosbjerg: LINKY "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian touristI am Dan Quayle of the Romans.I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands.Heja Sverige!!Everyone should cuffawkle more.The wrench is your friend.
