Loving this Olias theme page. Nice one Avian.

Although the text telling "New posts", "Sticky thread" etc. is too light to be easily read.

The new website will probably have the same kind of options - a light skin and a dark skin.

roger 10-07-2005 08:45 PM

thanks, Avian! good choices!!

sharcnorris 10-07-2005 09:35 PM

you can never go home again.....
 
...a popular saying, in this case I fail to see how to GO HOME from this page.
I can link to so much but the Home page, where is the link, What am I missing here? Not in Quick links either
Avian, I clicked on the type color link and Instead I was posted without me doing it, ( one way to edit me) Had to finish my post with edit
I like different looks VERY much, to each there own, OLIAS for me!!!
This page is Awesome

Roger -Dot- Lee 10-07-2005 10:02 PM

It's down at the very bottom, Sharc. Next to the theme switcher, you have the contact us tag, then the go home tag.

It's very hard to see with the Olias theme. Perhaps that's something that can be altered or something. I wouldn't know where to begin, so I'm just keeping my diddling fingers away and letting Avian do what he does best.

Roger -Dot- Lee 10-07-2005 10:07 PM

And have I mentioned how much I REALLY like this quick reply box? If I don't have the urge to quote someone, it Just Doesn't Suck. Not even a little bit.

Avian, I may have said this before, but I'm gonna say it again:

You rock. Period.

Roger -Dot- Lee, who's seen a lot of 'rock' in his years on this mudball, and you're right up there with flying an airplane over Yosemite in the spring and slam dunking a project under the wire and making one's director go "Damn, you're good. Now I see why everyone says you're one of the better scripters in greater Atlanta."

Thanx DD, Frankly I can't see those green links at all, look like a color smudge.
Could the Type color of these links be changed? Only when they light-up by my cursor did I see them......Most Home buttons are on the upper left of pages
P.S. this is barely a hick-up! This is getting exciting!!

Rick and Roll 10-07-2005 10:21 PM

Just trying the quick reply. Dot I was waiting for the vodka to wear off before I told him...

sharcnorris 10-08-2005 09:56 AM

Avian.....
 
I have been surfing our New Forum design for a day now
It Works great! the editing tools for type have worked very well. I have Made 2 new threads and find the logic is very intuitive. Also After posting, edits are VERY easy!!! I love being able to Highlight sections and change there looks.

On another Tech issue
When I get e/m's of new posts, I click over to find JUST that new post, not its position in it's thread as before.
This makes it a pain to go back into Menus to that thread to even understand the context of the post.
Can we go back to the original system with this one area Love to edit- seems today I'm landing right on the Dot,....same as it ever was.,
I could just delete the paragraph but instead will bid you..Nevermind

uhm...that's the way it works for me. It puts me at the bottom of the thread.

Maybe it's something in the settings? I dunno.

Roger -Dot- Lee, you're running windows, right? Have you tried rebooting? :D

no sooner had I absolved the system I'm stuck on single post replys again. It seems My mode setting has to be set for each thread. Hence I was shuffled to Hybrid Mode and stuck, or Linear Mode and in the thread. so not so much a Nevermind as a ...Now I see!

Hrm. I may want to change my login here to Roger -Dot- Lee then.

I also seem to recall that when I initially tried to log in on the test site, it wouldn't allow a dot in the name. And who am I without my precious dot? :D

Roger -Dot- Lee, gonna hang onto his identity for all he's worth. You might get it back, but there's gonna be deep rents in the sides....

Roger -Dot- Lee 10-08-2005 11:41 AM

Incidentally, does anyone remember who first gave me the Official Monicker of Dr. Dot? I don't remember if I ever got the chance to publicly thank them for that.

Rogor, it was me, nearly one year ago, in white, when you were faffing about various variations of your nick...;)

Dr Dot, of course, not Rogor. It's late....

Roger -Dot- Lee 10-08-2005 05:28 PM

Alas, the guilty party steps forward! :D

Indeed it is, and indeed it was. You've done me a wonderful service by giving me that nickname. I'm gonna find some way of making it stick.

Roger -Dot- Lee, and damn proud of it!

Avian 10-08-2005 07:29 PM

New style! Check out "Wuthering Grey" in your pull down menu below!

Not half bad. Not half bad at all. A couple of comments from the peanut gallery:

upsides:
  1. all the links are much more visible than under olias
  2. it seems to handle the smilies and other such things much better than olias, though not perfectly.
  3. not nearly as busy
  4. interesting button look, at least under Safari

downsides:
  1. it's awfully bland and colorless.
  2. it clashes with a lot of the avatars in use (notably Sharc and Rick, especially Lotus)

Overall I'd say it's a good addition and could be definitely used by some of the folk that are looking for less busy.

Dr. Dot sez check it out.

roger 10-08-2005 11:07 PM

I like the Wuthering Grey. wouldn't say it reaches new heights, but...

and Roger, your name is great. :)

Good show!

Roger -Dot- Lee, impressed, by gum!

roger 10-09-2005 05:54 AM

heh, thanks! of course, I'm no Brontésaurus at the pun game... :winkies:

So far I have been using AM default. :)
