crikey, this will take a little bit of getting used to.

I hear that, this is going to take much getting used to...

...Apologies if this has been asked before, but what's happening with the 'Custom Title' - ie. Hercules, Fenris, etc. - which used to be based off posts, but now seems to have been superceeded by a Shivan-oriented system referred to in the profile as 'position'. Could I get some clarification on this...?

[Ransom]

It's different.

I'm liking all the improvements so far (looks much better definitely, the old forums looked a bit flat to be honest), although I agree about the posts per thread thing.

I think the reason you still have your old rank system still visible is that this VB apparantly supports custom tags by default.  I'm not sure if it's removable - admins? I personally like the old system, where you only get a custom tag if you do something particularly notable for the community, but that's just me

[Flipside]

I think it's sort of like seeing a long haired hippy-esque Rocker dude that you've known for years suddenly going to a job interview in an Armani suit, sunglasses and a haircut, it WILL take getting used to, but it's still the same guy

At least one part of the new forum is broken under Firefox. The top banner is just showing a blank red strip.

[Unknown Target]

The search is also still broken, but I'm sure the admins know that

And I'm not having that problem

Odd, I'm using Firefox and it's not doing that for me...

The search is also still broken, but I'm sure the admins know that

Unfortunately we had to disable search because it caused other SQL-queries to totally stall up to two minutes, which appears as unresponsive forum. We're still working on SQL-database load problem.

Or maybe it's just broken under your copy. Works fine for me

Everything works fine in opera...
The forums look a bit better with a 19" monitor and in higher resolutions... So it was the creppy school com to blame. And I won't be going to school until next year, so I belive I can cope with this new look...

Try refreshing.

Since it was already lost in the posts, I'll post what I noticed about Firefox and HLP3.0 again.

In FF1.5 (or the Deer Park betas) the entire title graphic is gone.

In FF1.0x, the striping pattern for the Key Stats and User Info boxes is missing.

For the old Firefoxes, you might not even realize it's missing until you open it up in IE.

[Fenrir]

For me, it seems that the title graphic is actually behind the red stripy-thing instead of missing. You can see it poking out from beneath at least in the 1.5RC's.

[Ransom]

That's bizarre. I'm using 1.5 RC 2 and the title's there, instead I'm missing the striping pattern.

Nothing different in IE except the striping. Actually it looks broken on IE

FireFox 1.5 RC2, updated this morning


[EDIT] I just noticed: look at the bottom right of the key stats frame in IE. There's a line there which shouldn't be there

[Starman01]

Like I said in another place, nice new forum guys. It's good to have HLP back, I was really missing it.

Three things I would like to point out (suggestions, not complaints )

a) Is there an option for "mark all forums as read" It's a little bit confusing right now detecting new post, since everything is "new" atm
b) a different background colour between the post itself and the left part with the nickname. This was more eyefriendly IMO
c) Like already mentioned, could you fix the [Color] and [Colour] stuff ? It would save me reworking some sticky posts

Again, good work on HLP 3.0. Keep it up.


(edit) Never mind point a), figured it out by myself

[Janos]

I just tried to quote a post with an image, and post an image in my reply.

This, somehow, seems to be completely beyond the capabilities of the damn system. It was all crazy ding-dong stuff and random >b [bre[imgimageshack[quoteBlackWol[/img]goatse>>589731> stuff. God damnit.

[2Bladder]

I'd just like to say, Good Job all involved in the upgrade. Its nice that after all this time FS still has so much support

[Kamikaze]

Since nobody noticed when I posted it the first time, I'll post it again. This is about the rendering issue in Firefox.

By the way, the reason the header graphic doesn't work in Firefox is because the javascript that displays the google ads in the header doesn't work in Firefox. The browser won't render the background of an empty table cell (it's empty without the google ads), so the header image disappears.

You can verify this by putting some random text inside the header cell. If you put some text in, the header will suddenly reappear.

www.cyberberry.com/kamikaze/misc/hlp3.html <-- Try this. I stuck a non-breaking space into the header cell.

It's a little late, but: Dizzam!! This is definitely a MAJOR improvement to the layout! This more than justifies the long downtime .
