The new skin, thread 2

Post » Sat May 12, 2012 1:58 pm

Ugh. This new format is not good on my eyes. I tend not to do well with dark backgrounds and light text anyway, and this time they seem to have managed to find the exact worst combination for me. <_<

And what does that have to do with post limits - someone before said that the time was reduced when I asked if the post limit (of 200 posts per thread) was removed.

Was the 200 per thread limit removed? That was what I was referring to.
They said post time limit, the post limit is still 200
And also, the amount of posts per page keeps changing for me, erratically.

and, why does my avatar suddenly have a white frame?

I'm seeing an auto save happening when I type this. Wazzat?

That was never a technical feature - just a rule. Which I'm pretty sure is still in place.
I think that auto-save feature does what it says on the tin... at least I hope it does. So many times - I've been writing a post only to press the backspace button and lose the whole thing.
Guess I'll find out if it gets saved next time that happens.

Nope they're still locking them at 200 posts. Autosave saves what you have in the reply box for some reason, I'm not sure why though lol.

edit: doubt ninja'd lol

Does anyone know if there is any chance we will ever get the old Avatar sizes allowed back?

100x100 is annoyingly small... :(

They were back, but now they're square again. I have no idea why.

I am getting unlimited posting...

I just tried it out in http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1320527-copied-forum-or-something-else/page__view__findpost__p__19852322.

So, is it really supposed to be 30 seconds now, not unlimited?

Just want to know so I can throw a note over at Henning's thread.
I just use the posting option at the bottom of the page instead of actually hitting "Reply", that way I get unlimited.

Some of them seem to have differently colored frames as well, and the posts per page keeps changing.

Are they editing it right now :confused:

I suspect they are still working on the system, and are using our 'feedback' to adjust things.

Overall I think that the new skin looks nice, however, as has been said, the font is just a bit too small and I dislike the lack of a joindate and the yellow edit text.

Also, as with the last re-skin, I don't actually know why it needed to be changed. It worked fine.

And the lack of knowing who is/isn't viewing a thread bugs me.

One thing I notice is that the image tags work in the "pre-post" but if you try and post it you end up with a lot of text instead.

Now if only my avatar worked, like it ws supposed to (it was a gif).

Also I see only quote, no multiqupte. So I may have to start copy psting things, if there r quotes over multiple pages :( Yes its minor, but still.

Somthing bugs me about this layout, it looks, off. Im sure I will adpt (just fix the font please).

I'm praying that they don't. There is clearly no restriction so they don't have a real reason too.
:happy:

None of the .gif avatars work for me. Maybe in time they will :smile:
Multiquote is right next to Quote - you have to hover over the bottom of a post for it to appear.

It'll take a while to get used to.

Also, is there no way to link text anymore or am I not seeing it?

Can't you still get it? At the bottom of the browser window under 'Change Theme'?
