 | |  | | Yeah, I had fixed it with even the first release of PL2004.
I take the occasion to bring here my new PNG alpha-blended avatar, with a nice shadow, and point out this last cosmetic change: because the balloons' arrows are now no longer overlapping the avatar, the avatar can be a pure image, not a background, so it will blend correctly also on MSIE.
I've also raised the avatar image file size limit to 24 Kb. Incidentally, my new avatar is 23.8 Kb but it's a coincidence...
just a coincidence... | |  | |  |
|
 | |  | | sort of a wierd bug i guess, even though it dosent change anything.... or even have a reason to fix, but i managed this.

and this

 | |  | | That's been around for as long as I can remember. If you're fiddling around in the other windows and want to type a message in frespych but don't click it, if you start typing it'll make words between the lines. Not a major thing, and I think it only works with Mozilla, since in Firefox, typing stuff in a non-chat line will look for a link with the letter you typed.  | |  | |  |

 | |  | | Yeah, with the balloon-form change I don't speak out of my ear.  | |  | |  |

 | |  | | Typing in native Mozilla, for me, also starts searching for links. | |  | |  |

 | |  | | Just a tiny, minor point.
The "Guest @ Anywherebb" text at the top of the screen won't change to reflect my logged in status ("Ginrai @ Anywherebb") unless I do something to actively refresh the page (ie, hit the refresh button, apply a new style or switch Freespych on/off). Not a big issue, but I was kinda puzzled as to why it was still referring to me as a guest after over 30 minutes of activity.
Overall though, the current look and functionality of the forums is second to none.  | |  | |  |

   | |  | | What? Where? Oh. Hm. Not a problem if you have a remember-me cookie, I suppose. | |  | |  |

 | |  | | This is looking great! You already fixed all the problems with the new layout... except the custom background? I can't make it work  | |  | |  |

   | |  | | You aren't using the no-background black or white, are you? There's separate ones of those for if you want to have a custom background. | |  | |  |

 | |  | | Hey, Leniad, how do you get your avatar to have a transparent background? | |  | |  |
|
| written by Leniad on Aug 13, 2004 21:55 |
 | |  | | No, I used the custom one, SL.
Jaxe'd: Just make a transparent PNG or GIF. | |  | |  |

 | |  | | That looks nice, I think it will fit my avatar also.  | |  | |  |
