Re: Forum Editing!

[Alex Steiner]

And then what? Respect you? (notice the lack of "L"). It all seems a bit dubious .

But the two of us arguing isn't doing much. No one else cares .

[Reverse Simplicity]

Ouch... I don't really want any respect... noone has even noticed the changes other than you and maybe the other two who have posted here...

I'm going to say this forum was made for Mafia Scum and the rest is added bonus right?

I might make the banner/logo to do with that

[Reverse Simplicity]

Paint ftw!

[Alex Steiner]

Hmmm, notice it was sarcasm.

I also know that several others have noticed it, but they haven't commented. Supreme Overlord seems to stand by his "functionality over form", and hasn't expressed any opinion besides "That's new".

Google ads are back, but I don't know why they disappeared.

Yes, the idea for this forum was mafia, it was reason I got around to it (I'd thought about it in the past, before mafia). Initially I thought it might be a school thing, but there's little interest. Other than mafia, what can Resplect offer?

The black on white is a little stark, but I think that's just because it's concept art. It's a good idea though, especially the motto underneath.

What's the police officer represent?

The reason I mentioned the banner is because I think that we shouldn't try to place some people over others, not this early in the forum's life. I don't want to set a bad precedent. I removed all of the rankings, except for the unalterable admin.

But, as with everything else, what I think may not agree with a "normal" person.

[Reverse Simplicity]

Well, That is a very terrible representation of a cop, a role in mafia. I was going to put a b/w of a SK but... my tastes are a little darker to that of a 'normal' person.

I removed my banner, It started hurting my eyes... my avatar stands out enough.

I could just remove the cop all together. Maybe add a noose, that would be more along the lines... Since Lynching happens daily

[Reverse Simplicity]

What do you think of this? At the moment the graphics are pixelated... and its not transparent. But its just something to get started.

[Alex Steiner]

No noose, it gives a bad first impression. Like talking about lynching minorities in public.

[Reverse Simplicity]

mafia...scum... I dont know what else to put...

What do you suggest? Or if anyone else cares... please add your opinion.

Handcuffs, Fluffy dice... I might add bullet holes for funzies.

[Alex Steiner]

mafia...scum...

MafiaScum?

Maybe a crowd of people with one or two red people?

Hmmm...I'll think on it.

A better text banner in the meantime? I'm embarrassed to look at mine .

[Reverse Simplicity]

I... Edited my first post! Its now up to date OMFG.

-OMGUS

[Alex Steiner]

Ranks? Whatever for?

And why are they UT icons ?

So, you're a V.I.P.?

BAH! Go town!

[Reverse Simplicity]

1. To keep people interested. They have nothing to do with anything, just a little bit more personalization.

2. Better than stars, It is most definitely temporary. I will probably just create my own ranks, something mafia like.

3. In my own mind. Also refer to 2.

4. OMGUS Mafia rulez!

[Reverse Simplicity]

Bump, Added new navbar image, problem is I dont have the rights to remove the text from the navbar... Alex could you either remove the text yourself, or give me more permissions.

[Reverse Simplicity]

I started uploading some buttons... then realized I had missed 20 odd buttons...

I could reuse the ones I already have... but that would look silly, so for now you will have to bare with me while I finish the job over the weekend.

[Alex Steiner]

Can you remove the text beside the buttons at the top, so they sit next to each other on one line?

Edit: Fixed.

Edit2: I see they don't quite mesh as I thought they would...



I'll comment on everything else when you have the set, but it's looking good

[Alex Steiner]

Actually, I think an icon with color and shape could suffice, without the "Open, Open, Open, Open, Open..." all the way down .

Picture worth 100 words or something?

Same with the new and old - before it was blue and reddish, now I have to actually read to find the "New" areas.

[Supreme Overlord]

Hey, this is looking cool. Avatars on the left are good, too.
Yay library internet. I think I'm done here.

[Reverse Simplicity]

The current ones don't fit together like I wanted them to, making them look nonprofessional. The above ones *should* fit together once put into place. I like the second one, but what do you guys think...

Majority wins. (n+1)/2 for odd (n/2)+1 for even. where n is the number of votes.

If I am able to edit the overlap, would you also like me to edit the amount of posts per page. its at max now, is this too much scrolling?

[Reverse Simplicity]

Hey... Alex... I was lazy and I didn't want to have to reset all the buttons... Can you redo the no text in navbar

[Alex Steiner]

The buttons are great, except for one thing...

They're too wide to fit on a 1024 wide screen. I think we can ignore 800x600, but 1024x768 is too common not to cater for it.

When I look at it on my laptop, I have two buttons on the second line, out of a total of 10. Cut of 20% if the length and you'll be fine.

[Reverse Simplicity]

I could make it hug the text. That should shorten it enough.

This is the first time I am using a smaller screen and you are correct... the buttons dont look right.

Check I could even make it 2 Navbars

[Alex Steiner]

You'll have to shrink the text slightly.

Can you do two rows consistently (on all sizes)?

[Reverse Simplicity]

Consistantly what?

It would probably be one largish bar and then a personal bar underneath. (If this is possible, might only be for phpbb2

[Alex Steiner]

As in have two rows on all sizes (since it normally just continues until it runs out of space).

And you've missed the sticky icons.

[Reverse Simplicity]

Oh, yes, two centered rows.

However like I said It may not be possible, phpbb3 is new and does not have the editing capabilities yet.
