Title: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: Roph on September 12, 2008, 12:52:57 PM: This isn't done yet of course, but since you're reading this, comments =)

Updated the online copy just now with the sidebar, soon you'll have an option to show/hide it if you don't want to see it :) The top and right areas are done, just the main content area I haven't touched now =o

Spoiler for:
haet IE ;o;
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: tSwitch on September 12, 2008, 12:54:59 PM: the sidebar shows up underneath everything, on the left side.

edit: FF3, sorry.
edit2: ok nvm

I also think the avatar should be bigger. ;-;
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: tSwitch on September 12, 2008, 01:29:17 PM: I dunno, I kinda like it small like that.
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: ahref on September 12, 2008, 02:56:42 PM: the title bits for each sidebar box need to be darker i think. This quick reply box needs some work too :V
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: Moss. on September 12, 2008, 03:05:09 PM: I think having your avatar in two places is incredibly redundant.

I think having your avatar in two places is incredibly redundant.

but if it's not at the top of the page I'll forget which one to look for in posts :V
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: modern algebra on September 12, 2008, 06:06:47 PM: I only see my avatar in one place. Where's the other one?

Also, I think that it'd be kind of cool in the sidebar wasn't fixed and had it's own scrollbar. So, if you're scrolling down the page the sidebar still kind of stays with you instead of having to scroll back up to see it. It's not really necessary, but it might be neat.
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments

Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: Irock on September 12, 2008, 07:43:55 PM: The only thing I don't like is how the "view unread posts" link starts next to the avatar, but the "view unread replies" starts under it.

(https://rmrk.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg529.imageshack.us%2Fimg529%2F6299%2F40501582kz0.png&hash=453775756b223a3d7926e947f67dd54d8fbff7b5)

Looks a bit odd to me. Not sure if you're done with that part. =o

Other than that, I love it. And I prefer the avatar small.
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: Roph on September 12, 2008, 08:09:47 PM: It's meant to be 3 lines

>x pms, x new
> view unred
> unread replies

but if you have triple digit PMs it line breaks. I'll just change the text and remove the "you have" bit =o
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments

I was thinking the same thing except that it comes down as you scroll. And I thought it'd be better if it was on the left side :P And if it had the link for, like, the "Chat," "Stats," etc.
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: haloOfTheSun on September 12, 2008, 08:27:48 PM: Chat link is already there.
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: Arrow on September 12, 2008, 09:35:33 PM: Loving it! Though I would prefer the sidebar on the left, myself.
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: Holkeye on September 12, 2008, 09:55:20 PM: I like it, but I too would like the control panel on the left side.

Also, I have double digit PMs, and my line is broken too.
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: haloOfTheSun on September 12, 2008, 10:01:28 PM: The side bar looks better on the right, imo. If it were on the left, all the post contents would end up waaaay over to the right. OK, not that far, but still weird and too far.
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: Kokowam on September 12, 2008, 10:04:33 PM: ? It seems like it'd be just right. :P
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: Holkeye on September 12, 2008, 10:05:17 PM: It's probably just that I'm used to it being on the left.

(Ps. I see Dear Hunter in your playlist. :D )
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: modern algebra on September 12, 2008, 10:09:25 PM: Mmn, I prefer it on the right myself. If it were on the left there would be sidebar, then avatar, then text, so the posts would start like in the middle of the screen.
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: Irock on September 12, 2008, 10:11:29 PM: I prefer the right also. Mainly because I tend to keep my vision on the left side of my monitor, and would rather see posts.

Post by: modern algebra on September 13, 2008, 02:41:34 PM: I like the bars between post blocks, but I kind of think the blocks themselves might be too white. Well bright or whatever.

Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: tSwitch on September 24, 2008, 01:30:40 PM: I like the little "rmrk staff" banner in the corner of messages :)

perhaps instead of a red line at the left side a dark purple or blue one would suffice, as the red kinda doesn't mesh imho
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: Roph on September 24, 2008, 02:41:40 PM: it's a tiny hint. Mods will have a green one, super mods a blue one, admins a red one and donators a gold one =o
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: tSwitch on September 24, 2008, 02:42:33 PM: ah, I didn't know you were going to match the colors like that.

ok, makes more sense then :)

shouldn't donators have a pink one?
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: Moss. on September 24, 2008, 04:44:50 PM: It's pretty good. There's something off about it, though, but I can't figure out what it is...
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: Holkeye on September 24, 2008, 04:46:04 PM: I think the "quote" button shouldn't cover the banner. Other than that, it looks awesome.
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: tSwitch on September 24, 2008, 05:28:08 PM: buttons like on the dark theme would work best in that respect.
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: strike on September 24, 2008, 08:12:18 PM: Roph Both the view unread posts and view unread replies go to the recent unread topics page, instead of one leading to New replies to your posts.

Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: Zylos on October 01, 2008, 07:39:55 PM: I noticed something weird. My post says RMRK Staff on it. I thought this might be because of the Mega Mall board, but Chewey and Skanker are in charge of the spam board yet they don't have RMRK Staff banners on their posts. o_O

Edit: Maybe it's because of being a donator?
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: Roph on October 02, 2008, 03:23:05 AM: First I setup the staff thing with the red thing on the left, I was lazy and just copied and pasted for donators, will fix that =o
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: tSwitch on October 02, 2008, 11:55:52 AM: under 'donations' there's a little split in the Community box

Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: :) on October 25, 2008, 05:41:10 PM: can you make it so the width isn't 100%? I know it stretches, but a max width would be nice. Not many are going to enjoy the banner with a 1800px resolution ;p

Post by: Roph on November 30, 2008, 11:08:17 PM: 1) stencyl

2) 1024x768

3) something on your profile (comments) is forcing it to be wide similar thing:

WIDEWIDEWIDEWIDEWIDEWIDEWIDEWIDEWIDEWIDEWIDEWIDEWIDEWIDEWIDEWIDE

but the forums auto scroll it. =o

Either have it like it is or I could make it put an ugly horizontal scrollbar =(

Or if you insist on using 1998's resolutions, you could just hide the sidebar ;3
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: Irock on November 30, 2008, 11:22:56 PM: I can't make this silly crt montor get any bigger.

You should fix the comments mod to disallow stretching of profiles. If someone wanted to, they could stretch it by a lot. ;[

Post by: Holkeye on December 13, 2008, 06:00:22 AM: I said this in chat, but I think you should keep the stickied post boxes shaded. I liked being able to know what was stickied in my unread replies just by glancing at them. I know about the pin and everything, but I was really fond of the shaded boxes.
Title: Re: RMRK 4 Theme comments
Post by: Roph on December 13, 2008, 11:53:39 AM: Just done the mentioned stuff; stickied topics are seperated and hi(or should I say dark)lighted now.

Also redid the ajax loader (when you edit inline amongst other things).

Tested in IE 7 and 8, Opera 9, Safari 3 and of course Firefox 3 from the perspective of a guest, regular member or admin/mod, found no probems. Tested a little in IE6, I know if you're a guest on IE6 there's a few problems right now, still ironing those out. Some rounded corners are intentionally hidden from some IE versions, it's not a bug, IE just can't handle something so simple as floats correctly. Maybe I'll do an alternate version just for IE later.

If you're not using firefox you'll see a little firefox button under the sidebar :3

The theme auto detects what browser you're on and puts out custom CSS if needed; Opera 8, Opera 9, Safari 3, IE6 (good lord this thing), IE7 and IE8 all needed such special treatment :mad:

Now going to edit the display template a bit (template for viewing threads) and make it a bit more like RMRK2's layout (mostly stuff only moderators use) =)

@NAMKCOR: I tried to reproduce that on all the different browsers / text settings and couldn't. I edited the buttons a little to try and protect against that happening anymore for you =s What browser?

And for those who were using RMRK4 before, of course there's the new header =o

Always press CTRL+F5 (hard refresh) before posting any problems to make sure your browser isn't using cached (outdated) CSS or images.

- Cleaned up topic display, mods will mostly notice their buttons showing on a post only when they go to use them :)

- Some new icons / bgs for the post page =o

-
Quote
quotes are now more like rmrk's style

Code: [Select]
<?php echo 'as is code, which also syntax hilights'; ?>

- Calender, Help & Memberlist removed from the top menu, they'll have a new home soon =)

Post by: Moss. on July 06, 2009, 05:38:53 PM: It takes forever to tab over to the username/password boxes if you don't like using a mouse.

Default position set to username box? Like Facebook does?

Not a big deal, really, but I don't like staying logged in (privacy) and sometimes I'm too lazy to use a mouse, so I have to hold tab for like 15 seconds until it gets to the bottom of the page and THEN makes it over to the bar on the right where the login stuff is.
