Forum Upgraded!

It's the rapture, I'm convinced.

What screen resolution are you set to? I could make it a percent width, but on higher screens it would be a bit too wide... 960px is best for 1024x768 minimum resolution.

Mine is 1280x1024. I see the problem with the percent thing... mhh well I might just get used to it.

I'm using this on 1280x1024 (at least on this monitor), and I do NOT have my browser (Chrome) maximized. Works like a charm. Do you have your font sizes set to default, or are they larger or smaller than normal?

hey is this the only skin? i want to change it.

i'd imagine blaped by a ring would be a fist with a ring on it, blapped is getting hit by something

very nice - colors, design and speed

well done

You'll have other choices soon

wat happen to forum

stranger: finger: ass.

This skin kiiinda makes my eye bleed.

yeah i want a new skin.

are there any

id like a new skin please

Interestingly, most of you seem to be on laptops (the most common screen resolution is 1280x800 (21% of users), with 1024x768 (19.73%) coming in a close second) with a whopping 52 different screen resolutions based on page visits. All this according to Google Analytics.

Has anyone noticed the new skin? I wonder if it's been addressed.

i really think we should get another skin. just one opinion though, not sure if anyone else agrees.

joyrex is working on one.

@ joyrex, in response to post in other thread:

good point, i feel like a spaz for saying that - i think i got myself thinking that when reading about interface usability rather than 'text based' stuff like you pointed out.

i'd still like to do a skin, obviously you've got the main one sorted so it'd be fun to do a hyper spazzy one (the ability to have a custom user background would be fun, for example). either way, it's all good learning and potential japery.

i mocked up something quick for too. it's just a quicky on the old watmm tip. i guess the main thing i'm saying from it is that a roll-over list on the username would be cool and save space. you could also get rid of the icons and just have background tints.

meh..

5mb upload limit is too small!! My new track sounds rubbish in 128kbps (which is the only way I could get it to fit)....I have had to post a YouSendIt link to a higher quality version in my track thread on YLC....can we have the 10mb limit back please?

Dear Joyrex,

Could you fix the search so you don't have to click four times to get to an advanced search? Like so when you click search it just goes straight here: http://forum.watmm.com/index.php?s=&ac...ode=adv&f=0

Thanks,

Al H.

did the forum change or something? maybe we could get a different skin or something? where do i click to change my skin?

that's not bad - I've seen some other skins do that 'consolidated user links' bit, I like it!

I did not know this... I will address this as quickly as I can - I don't know if I can do a custom .htaccess file like we did on the old host, or if I have to ask for it to be increased.

Oh, certainly - that is annoying. However, when you click "search" and get the search box, you can click "more search options" and that will take you straight to Advanced Search, so really, only two clicks...

There used to be a link in the upper right hand corner for unread posts that isnt there now. Suddenly things feel all alien having to browse each category. I see you can still mark all posts as read in the bottom right, but I really would like to know where the 'view unread posts' option is hiding now.

edit: Oh and the old skin was better.

Read the posts... unless you're trying to be funny/annoying, which in that case, you're succeeding at one for sure!

cheers rex

hey joyrex, would it be ok if we had another skin? i feel a bit uncomfortable in this one.
