Board Upgrade Feedback

[rebus]

Just a few quick observations.

1) The links at the top make the site scroll from left to right now. I would suggest putting in a line break to stop this.

2) When you quote, the text is barely visable in the green box. I suggest white text or better still black on white

3) The red background should be hex colour #FF0000 and not the darkish red at present.

You have done a great job of giving the site a new coat of paint, Banana. It is going to take some getting used to.

Regarding Mark's point number 3, the dark red does not show up well if people have older browsers.

The only other thing I must say is you have dumped a lot of garbage on here as well Nana. Do we really need to know everyone who has logged in on a given day?

 

[I Predict A Riot]

I don't like change!

Too many sh*te smilies for my liking.

Would also prefer the private message box on the front screen to be at the bottom, & not the top.

No!

Not impressed with the new quote box either...

 

[Banana]

Yeah, didn't think those who had logged-in in one day would be so large.... I'll move it to a pop-up

Re: top or bottom for PM box - what does everyone else think?

 

[Banana]

what's wrong with the new quote box?

 

[Aussie Bee]

nothing using netscape - Mark was on about colors

 

[Banana]

strange.... the colours on normal on my IE6

 

[Aussie Bee]

fix the scroll bar up as well Banana - very annoying - make each line 6 boxes

what?

 

[Sweepy]

what?

He means to spread the LINK boxes across two lines.

 

[Aussie Bee]

you know "home forum chat" boxes.
make them into 2 lines of 6 rather than one of 12 so the page dont scroll across the screen

 

[Banana]

You're not much better! Lucky you told me in the chat room. Mark already mentioned this as point 1 in his post!

I was going to do it last night and will in the near future.
I've changed the colour......
I still don't know where this green box of mark's is coming from, anyone else see it?

 

[Sweepy]

I've altered the post Banana, which I made a real f*** up of.

I meant the link boxes at the top rather than the word "quote"!

 

[I Predict A Riot]

How long is the announcement box going to be on the site above the private message box on the front screen?

 

[rebus]

This is what I mean. Can't see that text in the quote box and get the orange off!

 

[hanwell bee]

Is there any way of displaying who is in the chat room on the main forums page?

Just so you don't have to wait for it to load up only to find there is no-one in there...

What on earth is that browser you are using Mark?

 

[The Joker]

Re: top or bottom for PM box - what does everyone else think?

PM box at bottom, please!

 

[Aussie Bee]

yeah - bottom

 

[Wee Dave]

Yeah, sort that quote box out...!

Otherwise, looking stonking.

 

[Sweepy]

Complaints about the latest 'blood red' colour can be forwarded to me! Any criticism will not be as kindly accepted as Banana has done - you have been warned.

What's wrong with it wee_dave31?

and what browser you using (with version number) and what OS (2000/XP/95/MAC?)

 

[I Predict A Riot]

Re: top or bottom for PM box - what does everyone else think?

I voted top by mistake on this poll on the other forum. Can you change my vote to bottom please? Ta.

 

[Banana]

No

we'll just have to remember to adjust it manually.

Why have you gone with blood red? What's wrong with the red that the grapevine logo above is coloured in?

 

[rebus]

What on earth is that browser you are using Mark?

Internet Explorer 5.2.2 for Mac OX 10.15

 

[Sweepy]

Brentford's red stripes are a deeper red in colour.

I think Banana would change it back to process red if that is what his public wants, but I thought a warmer red would be nice.

 

[big neil]

those quote box colours are rubbish.
i can't be bothered to read them as it hurts my eyes.

 

[Banana]

SiBee - argue it out with markbfc

 

[Sweepy]

Weird, but i'm not getting any quote box colours.

Push the boat out & post a poll. It's the only way forward...

I agree - the hex colour at the moment is CC0000, it should be FF0000.

Banana, you are doing a great job though....

 

[Sweepy]

I suggested that colour.

 

[rebus]

3) The red background should be hex colour #FF0000 and not the darkish red at present.

so did I!

 

[Banana]

Quote boxes are fixed.

 

[Banana]

Banana, you are doing a great job though....

I think what we'll do is leave it like this CC0000 for a couple of days, try FF0000 for a similar time and FF4400 (or whatever it was this morning) for a couple of days AND have a concurrent multiple choice poll. Democracy in action!

I need to give the PM TOP-or-BOTTOM poll a little while first.

Personally I think that white on FF0000-red is a bit harsh. Maybe a less bright white

 

[Sweepy]

so did I!

No Mark, I meant I suggested the #cc0000. It is a warm, beautiful, gorgeous red.

Ah... the Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen of the gpg!!

I'm thinking of a light pink background as well. Should give the place a little bit of romance.

You'll be wanting our FFCCCC little number then Sweeps

 

[Leonardo]

I quite like FOFFO.

 

[I Predict A Riot]

Why is smallfont> next to the number of posts?

 

[Sweepy]

The < is obviously missing in the container.
Stop playing around with our GPG now Nana!!

 

[Banana]

i like it like that!

 

[West Ealing Bee]

i like it like that!

So why did you fix it then

 

[Banana]

Because I'm a kind hearted soul who believes in democracy. It's not my board - it's everyone's board.

 

[avbee]

What a guy!
