Test out the new USMB Skin - Feedback appreciated

[Natural Citizen]

Not sure what you mean. We haven't changed anything with smilies, so nothing there should have broken. Screenshot please?

I was wrong about that, disregard, please.

What it was, is that I had changed the page width and in doing so, it reorganized them.

So they just weren't in the same rows as before.

So just have to get used to the different layout in scrolling them is all.

I have it figured out now, thanks.

No chance it could be upped a slight bit for two lines?

 

[Delldude]

Yes, because only the top 125 pixels will show up. It's too tall.

It's actually been set this height since 2023... it just wasn't set for the old skin. I don't want to change it. Look at my signature and how much text I have in it. There is plenty of room. It's just that image taking up too much of your horizontal space. You can make a table and squeeze it to the right or left of your text. 120 pixels is plenty of space, not going to bump that up. You just have to get more creative with how you display it.

You have four lines, why can't this work:

That would work. That's less than 120 pixels

 

[protectionist]

I prefer the old one - how do I change back?

DITTO!

 

[Delldude]

When I put it in, the line is cut in half. Would my picture be included in the total?

Yeah, your image is included in the total and is taking up a lot of horizontal space. Everything that shows up is included in the total.

 

[BackAgain]

This, 100%.

Fair enough.

Anyway, genuine thanks. Efforts to update the site may not always be perfect. But the effort is still appreciated.

 

[Delldude]

Ok, I figured that, compared to yours.

Thanks for your help.

Working on a new skin. You can select it at the skin selector at the bottom of the page, via the User CP, or you can also select it by clicking this link: New Threads

You can also click the 'Change Width' in the footer to set it to maximize the forum content up to 95% instead of being a fixed width. I prefer the non-fixed width version.

In addition, I'm going to set a maximum size on the signature. Right now I've got it set to 120 pixels max. If your signature is larger than that it will get clipped on the new skin. It will stay full size on the old skin.

Yeah, I had an image in mine and it pushed the bottom line of text below the cut-off so I had to remove the image as well.

I should note that this thread is actually very old. So most of those instructions are invalid on this current skin. That was for the last time we did a major upgrade. There is no width selector now. There are no different skins, just the light and dark variation. So many of those old instructions are now invalid.

I fixed it. Moved a line up next to the pic.

Perfect, glad you got it the way you want it.

The Thumbs Up emoticon has been added, it would be interesting to see if we could add a few more, there are some really good suggestions out there for new ones. I hope someone who can do this is listening.

and we don't have to insert an addy to put up a viddy from YouTube.

One of the add-on modifications we use should automatically embed youtube links. I think that's what you are saying.

I see a width selector at the bottom left of the page. Even though it creates just a very minor difference.
