Ty, did you hard refresh? D: That should at least make it show up on the right hand side and have the teeny buttons and all... in theory, of course.

I just got one. I can't tell if it's my CSS that has moved it over to the right or if it's like that naturally, but either way, I'm kind of liking the new events.

The image icons could be a bit bigger, but other than that, I liked the one I saw.

The rollovers have a small loading time now. When you roll your mouse over an item, you should see a little loading bar and then it should appear. It works for me in Firefox3 right now... except sometimes they fuck up and go UP instead of down, and go beyond the natural height of the screen, so you can't read them. I do not like them. D:

Thanks for the CSS, Seerow :D Still haven't gotten an event, but I stuck that in my CustomCSS anyway.

The new rollovers don't work for me at all >_> I don't even see a little loading bar. Hm. I wonder if this'll get fixed anytime soon..

So this is a bit off topic, but still sort of fits in.

One of the main complaints I've been reading about on the forum is that if you have a smaller screen resolution (800x600) that the events get cut off and you can't see them or delete them without changing the size of your resolution. Keith and co. don't really seem to eager to fix this rather major issue, stating that the less then 1.4% of Subeta uses that resolution.

Earlier in reply to Ty on a thread, he mentioned that less then 1% of Subeta uses Google Chrome as their browser of choice.

Where the heck does he get this sort of information? I can see how browser info is obtained, but your computer's screen resolution?

Edit:
Hmm a google search showed that apparently websites can track your screen resolution. Learn something new everyday!

I haven't gotten any events since the change so I can't say what I think of them. What I read from what people say here, it sounds like it's great in theory but has the usual kinks that needs working out. If it fixes the annoying scroll down I have to do when my pets come out of the resort, great! That is always so annoying.

As for the shop change, I love it! It'll be sooo much easier to sort my gallery now. And they have a remove all button, gotta love it.

I hate so much when my mouse rollover goes up instead of down. I love looking at my friends HAs when they are online. I like to see if they changed or stare at the pretty ones. But I can't do it anymore cause it always shoot up where I can't see it. Bah I say, bah!

The issue in Chrome did end up getting fixed. (And yeah, I had hard-refreshed and all that stuff. But I hadn't been around much at all this weekend; my subeta status is very accurate.)

The Irion Hand Puppets got an updated look. They are cute and I adore the little spots on these.
Though like a lot of inanimate objects on the site, it sure does look rather alive.

I don't think I would have noticed this if you hadn't said anything. Now I'm sort of creeped out by it.

We're discussing code changes here, so, I have to ask... does anyone else have a really hard time getting item rollovers to pop up, most of the time? I keep having to re-mouseover items, so it looks like I'm stroking items with my cursor or something. "Pop-up this time? No? Okay, move away and try again... pop up this time? no? Okay, retry...." It's getting really frickin' annoying. And I'm tired of feeling like I'm the insane one, petting virtual items with my cursor and twitching like I'm on drugs.

I'm having exactly that problem. Frequently my first attempt to mouse over an item doesn't work, and I'm not sure why -- it doesn't seem to be related to, say, whether I move the cursor once it's on the item, and I'm careful not to overshoot. So I have to move the mouse off the item and then back onto it. It's pretty tiresome.

We do, however, need to talk about your drug problem, Ty.

Also: looks like the Kanis beanbags have been updated, in keeping with the style of the updated plushies.

*adds self to those experiencing rollover problems*

And the one pissing me off the most? The one from my online friend's list. I liked being able to see everyone's current HA at a glance. Now, every single one rolls up instead of down, and so is lost to the whole hidden-behind-the-toolbar thing. >.<

That's probably the only glitch that I'm not experiencing myself. Chrome seems to be fairly good about putting things where they ought to be (rollover goes up at the bottom of the window, down at all other times).

I use Chrome and it's 50/50 for whether the rollover will go up or down. It pisses me off. I like the style of the new events and I wouldn't mind the rollovers... if they worked properly.

Now that I have gotten a few events. I find that I like the new system. Mind you I have a nice wide screen and it fits fine. And I have yet to accidently delete something, though I bet I will just give me time. But I find it easier to manage when you get a lot of events at once. And I like not going to a different page when you close up the event. So it's fine by me.

On the redone hand puppets, they are pretty alive looking. o.o But as creepy as that is, they are much better then before.

Ruffie Plushies and Elixirs got a revamp :D

ImageImage
Utterly adorable! And lookie, they don't look like some plushie-minion freaky hybrid. I definitely need to collect these now.

I don't have the old one and don't remember what it looked like. It's a hydrant!!
