Edit: I may just be blind or crazy, but did the quote button also dissapear?
Edit 2: Ninja'd
Btw have the points in our profiles always been displayed twice, once before badges count and once befor posts count, or is this part of this forum glitch?
@Brude - ugly, overkill, and useless feature that replaced a useful one. I hope it's not forshadowing for the changes we'll find in BG:EE. *shudders*
Manual quoting is a pain. Are you listening, @Coriander?
(And while we're here, videos break the Best Of page, which now lacks sorting, categories, and any indication of how many upvotes each post has. If someone is not familiar with the old version of the page, it would appear to be random and uninteresting.)
The FB and Twitter links - meh.
Is there a link anywhere to these changes or do they just happen randomly?
As for the FB and Twitter icons, I think they should be moved elsewhere. The Insightful, Agree etc are features that we call can enjoy, right here. Not everyone has a FB or Twitter account.
Also, the quote button isn't just hidden, as in
display: none
orhidden="true"
, it is quite literally not there any more... Someonedun goofedmade a slight error when they copy and pasted the code for the core site - overriding the useful button for those other, less useful, buttons.The "account options" button is also missing its image. It is still there, though, the CSS is just wrong; the current rule is
.SpOptions { background-position: 0px -148px; }
, and it should be.SpOptions { background-position: 0px 0px; }
or.SpOptions { background-position: 0px 1px; }
. The extra 1px makes the icons line up that little bit better (edit: otherwise the icon looks a little high, not that it's terribly noticeable).Since I'm already typing this, I'll also say that the bookmark stars are a little off on the threads (they have been for some time now), not the one next to the other buttons that @Shandyr mentioned (next to your profile picture). The current property values for the :hover rule is
a.Bookmark:hover { background-position: 0 -22px; }
wherea.Bookmark:hover { background-position: 0 -28px; }
would be better. Also, for threads that have been bookmarked, the setting is also a little off.Threads that have been bookmarked should have gold stars (I assume?); the current setting is
a.Bookmarked { background-position: 0 -42px; }
, where it should bea.Bookmarked { background-position: -36px -28px; }
. The :hover rule (which is to say 'Unbookmark') should also be changed froma.Bookmarked:hover { background-position: 0 -82px; }
toa.Bookmarked:hover { background-position: -18px -28px; }
. Bookmark example: before and after.Edit: Quote button is back .
The banner or title on the Best Of... page also repeats, meaning that it repeats the background image. To avoid this, the width need to be set as
h2.H { width: 854px; }
. Example. The only other way to avoid it is it make a title image specifically for that page that goes the entire width, which would be 1100px wide (it apparently doesn't scale the width, so it has the potential to go off the edge of the page if your resolution is below a certain size - or if you've just decided to make your browser smaller to allow for easier operating of other programs). That's a minor issue, though .
