Tripredacus Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 We have a new skin so if you find any bugs with it, post there here. I have one to post already. Some Sub-Forum titles are too long for the blue trapezoid to hold. This is one example:http://www.msfn.org/board/forum/101-unattended-windows-discussion-support/You can see that it just goes to "Unattended Windows Discussion & Support Su" but if you highlight the text, the "bforums" part becomes visible. Other sections with this problem:http://www.msfn.org/board/forum/37-web-development-html-java-php-asp-xml-etc/http://www.msfn.org/board/forum/66-programming-c-delphi-vbvbs-cmdbatch-etc/Also the Other\Dev section... won't post a link for that.

jaclaz Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 (edited) Is the IMHO utter awfulness of the choice of colours an "issue" or just a "gratuitious comment"? Since I believe it's the second, I would just like to point out how the white text on the "gradient" orange is nearly UNreadable AND the same applies to the white text inside "gradient" blue (expecially bolded items, like Forum titles).The choice of colours may be appreciated or not, that's a personal choice, but actual readability should be an "absolute" parameter to be taken into account.jaclaz Edited August 30, 2010 by jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicAndre1981 Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 why was this CleanCut theme removed? I selected it this morning. It looked much better than this orange/blue theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaclaz Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Unless I am mistaken "normal" and "advanced" forum search have disappeared, and only Google search has remained.Not only a link to it has disappeared, but also the otherwise used code:http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?act=Searchseems like not working.Nice added feature. It takes some time to understand that this still works :http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?app=core&module=searchjaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know until I noticed, there is a gear to the right of the search box. This goes to the advanced search.http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?app=core&module=search&search_in=core Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaclaz Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 I guess its not clear. I didn't know until I noticed, there is a gear to the right of the search box. This goes to the advanced search.Just for the record, the advanced search became a gear next to "normal" search, later BOTH the "normal" search AND the "gear" disappeared, replaced by ONLY Google search, now it is back (both normal search and "gear"). Just for the record a "gear" has been traditionally used (wrongly) as a symbol for "Settings" on a vast number of softwares, the equation gear=advanced (search) is somehow unexpected, expecially since 99% of the board choices are (correctly) textual, using when needed dropdown textboxes. (the exception of the actual "Search button" replaced by a magnifying glass is otherwise VERY common in a great number of softwares)I mean, the "gear" could be an icon representing a hammer, or a shark, or a dodecahedron (first three symbols that bear roughly the same connection to "advanced" )jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
