NinjaMonkey Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Very strange. I've just tried tampering. Mind I don't actually have IE 7 so I'm working blind. Force Refresh and tell me what you see now. Or any IE 7 user for that matter. I don't see anything happening... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wooster Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Tried something different. Look again after reloading? @Camtech But Python is a backend language. It'd still need to output HTML and what have you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT075 Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 iirc the python stdlib actually has a decent html module ANYWAY the banner is broken for me on chrome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wooster Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Gah. Getting late here. I'll try again for IE7 in the morning. But I've removed code that borked Chrome? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dondon151 Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 (edited) There's a difference between mediocrity and subjectivity. You don't like it? I'll accept that. there actually really isn't because 96% of things that can be considered "mediocre" are done so on a subjective basis so you can't just play the subjectivity card to deny that there is anything wrong with the banner on an aesthetic level it's a pretty clear indication when you have users coming in and vehemently stating their preference for an alternate skin. i'm sure that they wouldn't have really minded with the previous static banner. Originally, the alter had a background item to hide the altered perspective. But the staff didn't like it so much, mostly because the alter was also on top of the structure, so it was removed. ok that's great that's not what i was saying. remove the damn thing entirely. replace the entire altar with a static mugshot of a protagonist that changes every time you reload the page, or something. You don't like the movement? There are, of course other themes, but I'll research how to selectively disable it without generating a whole new theme, if possible. see this really isn't a problem that is alleviated by "use another theme that's not the default" because think of all of the random users that come here as guests. what are they going to think of a banner that is reminiscent of a shoddy geocities website - particularly if the animation doesn't even work correctly for what seems like most (or at least a significant fraction) of browsers (and heck, it looks clunky even in the browsers in which it does work)?

Scarlet Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 (edited) Just popping in to say that I like the new banner itself, but the animation kills my browser's (Firefox, btw) performance, forcing me to switch from what used to be my favorite skin to Blue Skies to browse the forums. An option to have the standard skin without the animation would be nice. Edited May 4, 2012 by Shade of Shadow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zkirsche Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 The perspective of that pentagram-like thing the characters are summoned from is completely butchered compared to the altar, although the rest of it is ok I guess. Can't see any animation after the summoned characters though. My IE has a lot of troubles it seems but mine isn't fully updated so I can understand that. Meh, rajaoin red all the way.

Feaw Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 (edited) No idea if this has been mentioned, and too lazy to read, but the banner itself doesn't take me to the board index anymore (can't click it). Now of course I can just click on the 'Forums' tab to go there, but it was very convenient to just click on the banner (and this still worked sometime with the new banner). Using Opera, btw. Also what is this animation you guys are talking about? Edited May 5, 2012 by Fawful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 I've got Opera, and I don't see the animation. . .and I think I like it that way. If you absolutely want to see it, get Chrome/Firefox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feaw Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Don't see it in FF either. But yeah, no animation is prolly best (from all the complaints I've heard about it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Marth 64 Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 (edited) And what is with Krom have the grilled food in his Falchion blade and have a Chef hat in the banner for? (P.S.: This is not a joke, I did saw it, I didn't get the screenshot in time.) EDIT: I just found out it was on Safari browsers and Chrome browsers.

Espinosa Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 I love it when I have some dramatic music playing in the background and some of the characters appear from the top of the page as I browse the forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jediabiwan Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Did you change something? Now the warp circle appears at the very bottom of the altar most of the time for me. Using google chrome. I don't think I changed anything recently, but I might have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrightBow Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 (edited) So I just updated Opera to 12.00 and now it displays all the character portraits just like in Firefox now. I just saw chef Krom passing and the armory guy showing up by so I guess everything works as intended. However, for some reason the circle it loads is not the same. Opera uses the "from above view" version of the circle thats left from the one displayed in Firefox on the sheet.
