New Forum Design
Moderator: Gamemasters
I never like change. It's a bit nasty on my eyes, I prefer the old font, I don't like where everything is placed on the screen or the huge text boxes or the fact that it lags when you middle click and move down (despite the fact I have a high spec comp).Drathe wrote:While I appreciate the work that has gone into this... Am I the only one who prefers the previous colour scheme. While I do agree that it is more in keeping with the homepage the font and colours just...mm... Look a little UO shard-ish in my opinion. I don’t know I can’t quite put my finger on it only to say I prefer the blue and sans serif font. That said if you don’t try new things you’ll never know, maybe I just need little getting used to it.
But there's no use arguing; it's not gonna get changed back so you may as well embrace it and compliment on its good features. e.g. it still just about does the job. Even if it does appear a downgrade it might appear better in newbies' eyes.

I agree. As Drathe/Alex say, I appreciate the work, but I liked the old forum.AlexRose wrote:I never like change.

I feel so noobish, but here is my question.
This is how the forum looks like for me:
The huge font kinda annoys me. This is the font size I'd like to see:
Windows settings says font size "normal", browser is Firefox 3.0.13 - how do I make the forum look like being made for normal people, not blindworms? I will not press CTRL-minus twice each time I visit the forum!

Again, I will definatly not CTRL+minus (or scrollwheel) each time I visit illarion.org. This affects other sites as well. The CSS-thingy seems to try to read my "solution settings", but which settings do you refer to? Firefox settings? Windows settings ("normal", no smaller font possible)?It depends on your solution settings...

*nods once*
The look has improved towards seriousness and enjoyability,
though i miss two or three samll pictures, maybe..the logo(smaller)?, or some more ivy leaves?
Don`t know whether the order of topics has been changed from the old version,
yet i have a proposal for restructuring them maybe.
---
Das Aussehen ist ernsthafter und genießbarer geworden,
jedoch vermisse ich zwei oder drei Bilder...vielleicht das logo(kleiner)?, oder ein paar mehr Efeublaetter?[/size]
Weis`nicht ob die Reihenfolge der Themen sich seit der alten Version veraendert hat,
haette da aber vielleicht was vorzuschlagen.

Meinungen, Zusaetze, Gegenvorschlaege?

I don't think anyone's mentioned this yet surprisingly, but when you're in the "Post a reply" screen and you scroll down to previous replies, if someone used a quote in their post, you can't see any of the text inside of the Quote Boxes. It's probably because the quote box color is the same as the text color, so you can only read the text by highlighting it.
