This new layout is wigging out my browser!

Wow Tim. I'm guessing you did the vbulletin upgrade...this new layout is definitely going to take some time to get used to...

It looks okay...if your browser is bigger than 800x600...however, I keep mine at 800x600, and everything's totally out of whack. Stuff runs off the screen, my smilies get cut off, DIVs are overlapping eachother...it's really messy.

Of course, I haven't taken a look to see if there's other themes, and whether or not they work. This is just a first impression.

Thanks Prissed. I think in the long run you will like the upgrade. It has a lot more new features.

I am still working on the new design and will try and get all those bugs fixed.

Your browser problem is probably from me trying to add the right side table.
I'll try and get everything working correctly for all browser asap...

With the right-hand column, you may like to consider doing something like what is done on the Extreme Visual Basic Forum, whereby the user can choose to hide the rightmost panel if they prefer. I agree with prissed, with my 800*600 resolution the site is too big.

I think I fixed the scroll problem on 800 x 600.

Let me know please.

Yes, this new one does look really really good..

it will take a little while to get used to it.. but its worth the wait and the upgrade..

ppl i ave cn have got only gud reviews abt it so far..

Here are some screenshots...

it still scrolls...quite a bit in the post reply screen. Not so much on the actual threads.

See how my smilies are cut off in the first screenshot? Also the "close current tag" and "close all tags" are overlapping?

Mine is a little different from Prissed. Of course, it may be the time since it's still be worked on. At this time, the only thing outside of 800x600 is the right bar.

Keep on keepin' on, Tim!

Prissed. Check to see if the smilies are still getting cut off.

Some of the problems may be because of Mozilla but I'll still try and get them all fixed. I get the same thing as you though with the second screenshot if I am at 800 x 600. I know why it is doing that in the second screenshot and will try and fix it later tonight.

I'm keepin on!

Great work! Looks like the only problem with my resolution on 800x600 is inside the threads.

Getting there!

Okay, smilies fixed.

Don't knock the browser, man! It keeps me (relatively) spyware-free, and my window never resizes! That's the greatest thing, I think.

*grumble, grumble, about sites that like to resize my browser window*

**TimSchroeder** · 03-24-2004, 05:47 PM

Not knocking the browser ok....

Mozilla =

Only kidding. I have not been able to use that smilie in awhile.

I'll try and get the other problems fixed also
