A most Humble request for Taldren
« on: January 17, 2003, 04:19:40 am »
Hello there. I am most impressed with the new style forum and all it's mind boggling features & gizmos but there are 2 things that I think would make the design of these forums perfect.

1) PLEASE can we have some kind of line between each post in a similar fasion to the old forums, (if possible). My poor eyes are going a little screwy.

2) It woul be nice if the pages were a little longer as they only fill about 2 screens, (this ones not so important as we now have the funky "show all" function.

Apart from that I think the forums are very well put together. Obviously many people are going to voice their thoughts on what they think is good and bad about this feature or that look but I really request these ideas to make the board as friendly as possible. I've seen many poorly designed forums on the net and always thought Taldrens boards inspired posting due to their easyness on the eyes.

Thanks for reading and thanks for thinking of us fans again. [/grovel]

OK, I just realised you can edit how many posts appear on a page in the preferences, ("my home"), which is most excellent.

I would still love to see lines though.

If you want to change the number of items per page, go to "My home" and edit your Display Preferences.  There you can change all that kind of info.

Thanks,

Thanx Dave, I got it. Went for 50.

The scary thing is that I saw you replying to this thread on the "Who's Online" link. That's a little creepy if you ask me, lol!

...and there were lines.

...but grey boxes at the top of the page appeared for they had followed after the lines.

...and Dave saw that the grey boxes were not good and said:
"Verily, I must smite the boxes and remove them hence, for they doth look goofy and are an annoyance to mine eyes."

..so Dave the dirt free didst smite the boxes (after he found his manual) and they were banished from the boards, never to return.

..and there was much rejoicing.

Nope, not me.
The Army makes me pee in a cup regularly to make sure.
Do you know how hard it is to pee in a cup when somebody's watching you?
