Did the layout of the Zam.com skin just change?Follow

Can I reminisce about the previous skin yet?

Yes.

The only problem I had with the previous skin was that it didn't scale to fit widescreen monitors. I playes with the CSS fle and realised that it messed up the background image and that's whay they left it as a set maximum width. The colors were really nice though, and so were the easy to use dropdown menus. This new style is blindingly white and you have to move your mouse all over the screen to click on things that you used to get from the pulldown menus.

Niz, I'm curious if you'd be willing to post a link to the CSS for the black, grey and blue style that was just replaced like you did with the Hello Kitty Online one. (I used to have a copy of it, but it's been deleted.) If so, people that want to use it could use it with Stylish.

Hrm. On my monitor at home, the new skin uses barely half the screen. That's pretty lame.

Sorry, the mouseovers on the forum posts. The text is much smaller than I remember it.

Text size in forum post previews has now been increased, refresh to see the changes.

It seems a little bigger, but it's still not as big as I remember it.

That's what she said.

I just noticed the new "Poster" Window, or whatever you want to call the window that opens up when you click on someone's name, and I've got to say that having the most recent posts of people seems like a real bad idea. Makes it easy to follow people's posting history, know-what-I-mean?

'xactly.

I think people need to stop worrying so much about karma and worry more about the content of the forums. I like that feature because maybe someone was looking at threads I missed, and there is something interesting in there.

The karma system makes sense in theory, but in practice I'm more in favor of moderators like a lot of other forums have to keep the rif raf under control. At least then there is no ganging up\bullying going on and you can have nice things like seeing what threads someone you agree with (or disagree with) is interested in. It might take some people out to different parts of the site instead of always =11 or whatever.

That's because you actually read the thread.

Sorry about that. I've changed it to skip all journal posts for now, until I can figure out why the security check wasn't happening.
