Glad to hear it's an improvement.

I donno if its just me, or if its even the theme's fault, but the favicon for HLP has become a spinny loading thing.

Spoiler:

April fools

[Flipside]

Mine's the same, it also has the constant spinny blue thing next to the cursor on screen, like it's constantly loading something

[Droid803]

Oh ok, so it's not just me.
I guess it's intentional then.

[jg18]

That thing is pure evil. Good thing I don't have OCD, or I'd have to skip the forums for the day.

Granted, it is funny, too...

[flecht]

Not so universal joke.

Linux, Firefox 11

It took me a shamefully long time to realize that was intentional.

I know, I know... Chrome doesn't even show the animation, either - just the first frame. I just had to go with the most common denominator.

I am officially sick of my mouse looking like it's loading something. The day's over. Change it back please.

You mouse got it as well?  My cursor was and is normal.

As for the favicon, it looks like it has been changed back already you will either have to clear your browser cache or wait for your browser to re-download the favicon which is normally somewhere between 1 and 7 days.

[headdie]

no mouse cursor issues here but despite clearing my cash for the last day my icon is still green

I haven't reverted the changes yet, so if you're not seeing the loading cursor and green favicon, your browser's lying to you. Lying.

I'll revert them in a bit though.

[Androgeos Exeunt]

I didn't notice that you changed the default cursor until now. It works even on a Mac.

Hmm.  Apparently firefox and IE don't let you change the cursor, because it never changed for me. IE didn't pick up the new favicon either. Chrome on the other hand, is using the busy cursor and what look like the first frame of the favicon.

Just have to love the compatibility of the different browsers

[Flipside]

I'm using Firefox and I have the 'spinny thing' next to my Cursor, have done since yesterday on here.

Looking forward to it being reverted

All (my) changes are reverted; the Kick-ass thing will have to be dealt by the original mischief-maker.

And as for the browser stuff... most of the differences people were seeing were due to their caches not being refreshed. The background working cursor is pretty much universally supported - all OSes, all browsers (expect perhaps Lynx... ). The favicon (which tends to get cached more vigorously and is more difficult to refresh when desired) was merely an animated GIF, set to a certain color, etc... thus it didn't match many browsers besides Firefox / Windows. Also, evidently some browsers (Chrome) only display the first frame, so it was all the more out of place.

No matter, fun was had by all, even though not all were had by the fun.

So it would seem.  Either I was keeping my cursor over text every time or this browser refreshed its cache just in time before you reverted the changes, because my cursor is now doing it, though the favicon switched back.

[Flipside]

Yup, clearing the cache fixed the problem
