General Feedback

Maybe give users the option to disable the flashing of the user notification box? I know there is a reason us staff peoples have to put up with it, but that doesn't ring true for members.
 
The flashing message box stops only on the next page after reading the message. The script needs modified to mark it as read as soon as the request is made before printing the page.

I'm pretty sure this is already available.
 
Actually, you can only prevent the pop-up notificaton that appears when you've got a new message. You can't stop the box from flashing unless you read the new message. I think, however, that the box should stop flasing just as soon as you open your inbox, not after specifically opening the new message. For exmaple, if one of my highscores gets taken in the arcade, reading the summary of the private message tells me everything I need to know; yet I still need to have clicked and opened it to get the box to stop flashing. The same goes for private messages that only consist of one or two lines.

Eh, you get the idea. :tup:
 
For a GreaseMonkey script:
if (el = document.getElementsByClassName('newnotifications')[0]) el.className = '';

For Stylish:
.newnotifications {backgound: none !important;}

That will disable the flashing.
 
At the top of the page on the PS3, there's no 'quick links' menu and two 'new posts' links.

Had to attach it, on my PS3 now ;p

[19:20] <Dan> Does anybody else have problems with the forums image resizer?
[19:20] <+eldiablov> Yes
[19:20] <+eldiablov> it sucks ass because it doesnt allow links.
[19:20] <+eldiablov> And sometimes I'm scrolling through using pgdwn
[19:20] <+eldiablov> and it just brings an image up

From IRC due to my laziness.
 
Usually when I open a page with an image on, it's already full sized so the page takes longer to load. That, and whenever I'm scrolling down a page, a random image from the page pops up - using pgdn, not the scrollbar. It works fine with the scrollbar.
 
My issue with it mainly sprung up because of the gamercards, half the time mine is made smaller, other times, it shows up full-size.
 
My gamercard appeared to be a dead link now, so I went to create another. I typed in my first service fine, but when the second service box appeared, the entry field wasn't in a dark font and the site wouldn't recognize what was entered in. So basically, I can only create gamercards that have one service now.
 
Yeah, we lost the PSN service when it went down. Hopefully it will be taken care of in the future, sorry for the inconvenience.

I think I speak for all the staff when I say we agree that the resizer we use sucks. However, unless we code our own we have no alternatives to use as far as I am aware. Though we would like to replace the system we use with a self-coded one, I don't see this as a priority.

I can't reproduce the pgdn issue, but you can link images using [noparse][imglink]imgurl[/imglink][/noparse].

I've disabled resizing on signatures for the time being to see if it is needed or not.

Edit: We are now testing a different system. Please let us know what you think.
 
I like the new resizer, although one of my favorite things about the older one was that you could drag pictures and place them side by side if needed.
 
We can either have the ability to have images side-by-side or the gallery/slideshow function. What do you guys want more?

To see the difference between the two, Light has the side-by-side and Dark has the gallery/slideshow.
