snefroe Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 (edited) great job guys! love it! especially the space dude standing at the center of EB's banner!! X-D but for some reason it has uploaded my old avatar.... hm... weird... Edited March 18, 2008 by snefroe Quote
Lord Of Pies Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 Yes, it works, now I can finally say, a great new skin and background guys, I like it! I had trouble posting yesterday, but it is fine now! Quote
voxel Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 Hi! Nice work! Overall good job. Two minor details: I find it slightly disturbing that in the "general" boards the text fields are darker than the background and The "polka bricks" are too irregular as well. And instead of the green frame I would have created anoter matching shade of (medium dark) blue. At any rate I can live with that, it may be a matter of (my) taste. Note: Also in the Minifig Customisation Workshop subboard the text fields are darker, but because of the plain background and the overall matching color scheme this is OK. Quote

RupeeClock Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 (edited) Guys (btw my first post on the new boards, this posting map looks really cool) i am upset about one thing .. ALL links to an topic or post THAT IS LINKED TO THE .hosting.ipsyn IS DEAD!! DEAD DEAD DEAD!! Sorry i sound like this but .. :'-( it's a big problem i think, because you could fix every link but .. hey, come on. It's mostly annoying when reading old topics, not one link to another place on the boards works. :'-( Ofcourse i am not the first one to mind, but it's a problem .. and .. ehm .. well .. Rupee out. == BIG EDIT == GUYS I HAVE FOUND THE WHOLE SOLUTION Okay. There are two ways to solve the problem: 1. In your Signature, cut the whole "hosting.ipsyn.com/euro" part out of the link and type "com/" between the two new parts.* 2. If you linked to a page on the boards and you get the old OFFLINE message, do the same in the ADRESS BAR as above and hit <ENTER>. * I also did id with my signature !! Look they all work again !! Ingenious not ?? So, problem solved *sweet* i think .. Rupee .. Edited March 18, 2008 by RupeeClock Quote

Hinckley Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 Guys (btw my first post on the new boards, this posting map looks really cool) i am upset about one thing ..... So, problem solved *sweet* i think .. Rupee .. Bonaparte ran a tool that fixed that particular problem. However, your sigs must be changed manually... Quote
blueandwhite Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 I guess the one thing I miss about the old forums was the fact that clicking the banner took you back to the main page of the forum rather than the front page. Is there any option/way of returning this feature. I generally enter the site using the front page, but once I've seen what's new, I prefer to focus my attention to the forums. It's one feature I truly miss. Quote
Siegfried Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 Is there any option/way of returning this feature.I believe it is. (I did the reverse to my forum. X-D ) Quote

voxel Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 Hi! I just noticed the following: When clicking the user name, now a drop down menu containing one (!) item, the user profile, opens. In the past, clicking the user name immediately opened the profile for that user. I would prefer the former behavior when clicking the user name (it saves an extra click & mouse movement). Quote

In the past, clicking the user name immediately opened the profile for that user. I would prefer the former behavior when clicking the user name (it saves an extra click & mouse movement). I actually like it. This way you can go straight to the PM system for a PM to a member instead of going to the profile THEN the pm *sweet* . It also gives some other nice features. Also, I like the new +EDIT system!! | 8-? Quote
WhiteFang Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 If you are having problems with login, staying logged in, remembering passwords, then it is a good idea to clean your browsers cookies.Here's a procedure: Thanks Bonaparte! *sweet* Quote
trooperdavinfelth Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 (edited) You'll just have to get used to it. Sorry. It saves time and clicking. You can instantly send a PM with one and a half clicks(I don't consider the click to bring down the menu a full click; it drops down immediately), whereas originally you had to click to the profile(takes some time) and THEN click PM. I think this new system is quite fine. I've already done my getting used to... *sweet* EDIT: Also, I noticed that the post button now allows for multiple times to click on it. I suppose that will make it a lot easier for people to double, triple, quadruple, and quintuple post? 8-| EDIT 2: ImperialScouts is absolutely right! Quick edits with smileys ON! *y* Edited March 19, 2008 by trooperdavinfelth Quote
PrincessAriana Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 It looks cool, but could I give a try at making different ones for the site? I have LDRAW installed and I've been wanting to make something new. Quote
Hinckley Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 It looks cool, but could I give a try at making different ones for the site? I have LDRAW installed and I've been wanting to make something new. As these have all just been designed or updated, I don't think we'll need new ones for a little while. I appreciate the offer and will let you know if I need any help. I admit I'm a bit of a control freak when it comes to design. :-$ Quote

Maybe re-arranging the torso so that the EB logo stands over it, just like a decal! 8-♥ Quote
Hinckley Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 Since when do you care about Technic? :-| Stop! You're revealing my kryptonite. I feel all vulnerable. :'-( :-P I have been thinking about other skins for BSTF, Community, Technic, but they do take up a lot of memory. I would need a banner for Technic/Bionicle because I don't have any, but I'd like the overall concept to stick with BrickMiner's original concept. And there's more than just the banner, there's designing the whole skin and that takes a lot of time as well. Even if someone did design a banner, I'd have to take care of the skin, so all this hypothetical stuff would take place down the road. It's much more involved than it seems. And since I design for a living, I know designers usually don't work well together. It's like too many cooks spoiling the broth. But, I really do appreciate the offer. I was thinking the Minifig Customization banner could use some work. Maybe re-arranging the torso so that the EB logo stands over it, just like a decal! Thanks, it's supposed to look like a decal. :-$ I tried to fit the logo to the torso but it made the logo too small. I tried making the torso bigger, but then you couldn't tell it was a torso. Since there are two other EB logo decals sitting next to the other blank torsos, I was hoping the effect came across that it was a custom decal but the logo is so dynamic it's flying off of the torso...or something like that. *wacko* Quote
