Bokishi Posted February 5, 2007 Posted February 5, 2007 Umm bring back 'delete your posts' Current 3DMark
Wistrik Posted February 6, 2007 Posted February 6, 2007 (edited) I'm using what I think is the default skin; black/dark gray background with dark blueish bars, etc. The Upload, Toggle Side Panel, and various post editing buttons (the ones with text labels) have the text in a color very much the same as the button's background color, which makes the text hard to read. I have no trouble seeing the buttons with icons (instead of text) on them. Edit: when using quick edit, the following buttons are hard to read: Complete Edit, Cancel Edit, Use Full Editor.

Fionavar Posted February 6, 2007 Author Posted February 6, 2007 Wistrik: Quick Edit: Those buttons should be quite clear as they are white in contrast the blue skin - can you confirm? Toggle button, et. al.: Is it possible to get a screen pic, as this echoes my confusion as above. What browser & version are you using Wistrik?

Wistrik Posted February 6, 2007 Posted February 6, 2007 Here is a sample screenshot. I have this issue with IE 6 (with all security updates, etc), IE 7 (all security updates, etc.) and Firefox 2 (current version). Another one I found while adding the screenshot: the filenames in the Manage Current Attachments dropdown menu are also hard to read: light gray text on slightly lighter gray background.
Fionavar Posted February 7, 2007 Author Posted February 7, 2007 Thanks for this - admin is currently working on addressing the new elements that are not currently part of the skin prior to the upgrade. I would ask that you keep this challenge close at hand and let me know, once the tweaks/new skinned .gifs are put in place whether things are better - okay Wistrik?

Pidesco Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 There are two smilies with the "ninja" tag. "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian tourist I 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.
Wistrik Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 (edited) Will do, Fionavar. I take back what I said about Firefox and IE7 Firefox 2.0.0.1 (screenshot), IE7 (looks identical) Quick Edit controls look just fine. Firefox 2.0.0.1 (screenshot), IE7 (looks identical) "Manage Current Attachments" dropdown menu (light gray on light gray still persists.) You can also see that the Upload button is a bit hard to read. Firefox 2.0.0.1 (screenshot), IE7 (looks identical) forum selection dropdown menu. It looks great on these browsers, but is hard to read in IE6 (what I use at work) This may be an issue with (X)HTML compliance; IE6 isn't as compliant as IE7 or Firefox.

Fionavar Posted February 7, 2007 Author Posted February 7, 2007 Thanks again for this Wistrik - it is gratefully received! The universe is change; your life is what our thoughts make it - Marcus Aurelius (161)
Diamond Posted February 15, 2007 Posted February 15, 2007 I don't know if that was mentioned, but not only "new post" markers are not updated properly; sometimes after posting, some threads go back to "unread" state.
Surreptishus Posted February 15, 2007 Posted February 15, 2007 I don't know if that was mentioned, but not only "new post" markers are not updated properly; sometimes after posting, some threads go back to "unread" state. I think Meta stated that but yes, it is still a problem.
alanschu Posted February 17, 2007 Posted February 17, 2007 (edited) The " smiley doesn't need the quotation marks ("). As a result, all I need is eyes and a nose to make someone whistle!!!

Fionavar Posted February 17, 2007 Author Posted February 17, 2007 I believe the quote is now gone as the system does not seem to like it ... just ask meta for his take! The universe is change; your life is what our thoughts make it - Marcus Aurelius (161)
Deraldin Posted February 19, 2007 Posted February 19, 2007 The " smiley doesn't need the quotation marks ("). As a result, all I need is eyes and a nose to make someone whistle!!! This is unforgivable, and without immediate fix WILL result in action. Action of a very hostile nature! Not only that but :sad: is now : sad :! That's three more keystrokes than . Don't even get me started on how many extra keystrokes there are for .
metadigital Posted February 19, 2007 Posted February 19, 2007 Also :ph34r: is ninja! (This is all Fionavar's fault!) OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
alanschu Posted February 19, 2007 Posted February 19, 2007 I am :sad: that :sad: is not I'll give you your damned dirty quotation mark...but only this time!!!!!
metadigital Posted February 19, 2007 Posted February 19, 2007 There is some sort of block on the quotation mark ... we've tried: " """" """ "" '"' without success. :confused: OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
metadigital Posted February 19, 2007 Posted February 19, 2007 On the bright side, " looks like the smilie has pair of crotchets near his mouth. OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
Surreptishus Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 Will this discourage use of smilies?? I hope so!
alanschu Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 I could see the benefit to some smileys no longer being available.
metadigital Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 We need a new contest! OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
Fionavar Posted February 20, 2007 Author Posted February 20, 2007 We need a new contest! Soon feisty one ... soon The universe is change; your life is what our thoughts make it - Marcus Aurelius (161)
Surreptishus Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 There seems to be a problem with the length of topic titles. They sort of overrun.
