The new skin

Post » Sat May 12, 2012 4:50 pm

Where are the forum preferences? I want to have 40 posts per page again.

With Exorince's changes this is actually my favourite theme to date (including the 2007 one) but that is the one thing I would change.
Having to trawl through double the amount of pages is really irritating.

Overall its great so far. Is there a new post limit?

Only two complains on the mobile version.

1. I cannot choose the last page or any page of any thread to see how the conversation is going. I have to sift threw from page one all the way to the end each time, on this I liked choosing the page you wanted to view like on the older site.

2. I cannot delete my notifications with the mobile site, this is annoying as I always keep all of my notifications cleared out all the time.

Now the only way to get to CD is to either have recent posts there, hope someone makes a topic there and it appears in the 'Recent Topics', or have it bookmarked. Maybe I'm just stupid and haven't found out how to get there yet.

Only problems I have is that I can't see who's posting in a thread, and as someone who hates posting in an RP only to see someone made a post while I was doing so, this I assume will piss me off to no end.

Other then that, I figure I'll get use to the new look so I have no complaints.

Right as I was getting used to the old one, too...

No, this theme looks nice, but it's a bit too cluttered for my tastes. I still prefer the theme the forum had when I joined in 2008.

The icon for topic tags (they can be added to topics when you are creating them)

Oh. This thread has that icon but no tags next to it. I can see tags on the Warhammer thread though.

Lazy OP is lazy.

The font doesn't bother me.
The "THIS PERSON EDITED THEIR POST" neon yellow (feels like it) eyesore edited post text needs to go!
I prefer the join date where it was, not on the name mouse over bubble. Put post count in there instead.

P.S.

BAAAAAH! yellow text from hell alert!! <_<

I also miss the who's online, and appreciate that I can log in anonymously to avoid it again, when it comes back. :P

For me the font is way too small, not everyone has 20/20 vision and I think it needs to be bigger, could give some people headaches, it really is VERY small guys! Other than that I love the look of the layout

It's at the bottom of each game/series' page.

EX: Click "The Elder Scrolls", and CD is at the bottom of the page.

I have 20/15 in both eyes and I find it too small. :thumbsup:

I actually kinda like it. Much more refined. I know that the old design had some scrolling problems with Opera, is that still a problem? If not, I'm gonna switch back to Opera, it is much better than Firefox besides the scrolling issue on this website.

The removal of join dates means I can no longer distinguish the legitimate members from the post [censored]s enthusiastic posters in the Skyrim section.

Just noticed that to type in italics or bold you can just use ctrl+i or ctrl+b instead of the awkward html tags. Classy.

The line that indicates a post has been edited is pretty in-your-face. I guess I should learn how to proofread now :(

It's not so bad with the http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1320404-exos-forum-tweaks-full-width-larger-fonts/ (only for Chrome users thus far however).

Yes but it would be easier for the admin here to make the font larger than have everyone use Chrome and install an add on. With IE9 it's way too small, I can feel my eyes straining and I have glasses already ;-)
