Forum Changes

As you can now see the 2nd phase of the forum change has been put into place.

All channels have been moved into sub categories where you now have links to get to the various areas.

This makes the forum a lot tidier and when all of the MUGC channels have been created it means you as the player and us as the Admins are not rolling our mouse wheels endlessly to reach the bottom of the forum.

It's looking good. My only criticism is that the user bar at the top doesn't seem to really match the style of the rest of the board. The Multi Quote button also has this problem.

Apart from that though I like it

Yeah not a lot i could do about that at the moment. There were buttons missing for this theme. One of the most important ones being for the portal. As im not graphically inclined i improvised. There's a ton of themes to go through so im sure one of those will have a style to suit.

You just need to save the pic of the button, change the colour from red to blue, and replace it.

i honestly think the red .. gives the forum a better conrast to much blue would make it glim .. so id keep the red

*Nods* What's the blue theme? My eyes hurt now, although that could be because I have been lurking in the shadows too much .

I only got one problem that will only pretty much effect me, as i'm the only one who does this, but it's hard to see which one is the new post, a i use my phone on the forum and it don't play the animation's the 1st part of the forum is okay, as it changes from blue to red planet but when it's just red, it's harder as where the orb is suppose to orbit the planet it don't, which make's it hard for me to see the new post's

I also look for those tell-tale cues when I visit the fora.

so just click

"view posts since last visit"

its how i see whats new.

I'm getting an unusual niggle since the Forum's appearance was changed. I've always used the View Posts Since Last Visit option and hit the "Back" arrow after viewing each thread so I'm returned to the list of new posts.

Since the forum "upgrade" however, I've found that I have to back-arrow twice to change each screen instead of once as before. In addition, the screen is about 1 cm wider than my monitor can display meaning I miss about the last 3 letters on each line of text.

Using XP SP3 and IE8

IE8........no comment

firefox the way 4wd

Or try Opera - it has some features that FireFox doesn't unless you find the right Plug-in for it.

I am not sure if they have a Browser for your phone - but you could also check out FLOCK. It is a FireFox spin-off that has been customized for Social Media. Includes easy ways to Twitter / FaceBook / YouTube / Ect.

opera mini on my phone ... but firefox is better with multi-media .. eg videos

google chrome: fast browsing

opera: accesibility

but i found with opera after awhile turns to poop

I am guessing you do not have a wide screen monitor?
