V2 profiles apparently now have a blue gradient image behind the header. It appeared on my profile and really alarmed me, because I just installed Google Chrome and I thought there was somethin' wrong with it. (But no--actually, Chrome saved my profile's ass very easily; right-click has an "Inspect element" option that is soooooo fabulous and makes css a lot easier! I had a nerdgasm.)
Another change: the "view all comments" link is now after your last displayed comment, not after the add-a-comment box. I hate that. Now I don't have a way to get to my comments from my profile. No one else has a way to get to my comments, either.
I combed through the forums to find out if this is permanent (after turning that crap off) and found this info from the profiles minimod charm (
here's the thread):
Charm wrote:If anyone has a customized profile and wants the new stuff to go away, just add this to your CSS:
Code: Select all
#navigation, .header, .info_block, .comment_table {background-image: none;}
So, yay for Charm. Boo for overall staff changing profiles in a pointless cosmetic fashion without warning (beforehand) or notifying (after the fact) the mass of users who have custom profiles. A post buried in a forum is
not the way to deliver news to your subjects. I think that's what the
news is for.
