Layout 'n all that

*nods* My main problem was what Cheese said, I didnt like the hyperlink look.

I could see how it could be useful, a basic version of the quote feature, just bold the name so it is apparent you are reffering to what they are saying, add a dash and make your point.

But I doubt it would ever be that useful, and saving bandwidth is more important than a seldom used feature. Thanks for removing it. ^^

As for an actual layout... I can post the basic version I made earlier, though I'll probably shrink the banner/incorperate Jazzy's banner, or something. With what I have, all Joeno should have to do is go through and add various classes to things, and maybe a DIV.

The new banner also bothers me slightly because it has no yellow. I know the scorshio is both orange and yellow, but you've bothered to have the 2 shades of purple...

Nothing major but it bothers me slightly.

I say botheres, I don't really care.

We couldn't find a nice pet that was yellow enough, hee. They all had big eyes in a different colour, or patches, or bits of brown.

I see what you mean...I don't think there are any nice looking pets that are yellow...

...except plain yellow ones which are boring.

Also, I like the poogles. Didn't notice them right away.

Wow, lots of changes going on.

I like the addition of quick reply and how you can see the newest post from the index.

Aaaand I think we're totally done now. A list of all the changes today, in order:
- changed icons
- added last topic mod, changed formatting
- removed COPPA form (I'm not in the US, so I'm not bound by COPPA)
- added pm mod
- added a colon after "Moderators"
- added quick reply mod, tweaked
- fixed gender mod, which had become oddly damaged, with joeno's help
- added turmy alert to the forums, with joeno's help.

Ironically enough, those poogles you guys are all pointing out? Those are the one thing on the banner that hasn't changed since last time

Only thing different is that certain poogles have been pulled to the front, because before their feet were overlapping others' heads.

Didn't you also do something to the PMs? I can see what the person wrote after I hit reply - this is a very nice feature. ^^

Yep, you can now see what you're replying to, and there's a short line of text telling you to scroll down, replacing "Tip: Styles can be applied quickly to selected text." there.

Well then stop that, we're fine. *patpat* And, yes, I have noticed we're using a gig a day, and we're still fine. =D

And while this is not an open invitation for everyone to run around making pointless threads =D we're going to be fine for more than that too.

Overall I like it, except for the notification paper thingies. If they could be made a tad darker, because the way they are now they don't stand out at all. The orange always jumped out of me, but I practically miss the new ones since the blues rather light.

Just a minor thing though, thought I'd mention it unless it's already been mentioned (haven't read the rest of this thread).

That was just fixed again... this morning, maybe? You might still have the older, paler ones in your cache. The newer ones are much more obvious and darker and happy.

I never really looked at the banner before. I know there was something there because I remeber it not being flat colour, but I never really bothered to see what it was :P

More than that...I basically panicked yesterday when I realised we'd used half of the 50gb and it was only the 18th. It's more than last month, which was indeed a gig a day.
