Some changes to the input interface

**metroidfox** · 06-30-2006, 01:34 AM

Two things so far:

1) We need a quick post button.
2) Editing posts.

If I can think of any more, I shall post them here.

I now see an option, I did not before. Oh yeah, I'm loving the new bar at the top. We've also dethroned Vengie by changing to Geforce3D. :o

EDIT: avatars have a scrollbar underneath them. Is annoying at hell.

How about an edit feature similar to the one Rage3d uses?

What browser are you using metroidfox?

**m3talc0re** · 07-01-2006, 12:04 PM

Your browser didn't matter, it was a matter of the width of the table cells containing that info.

FIXED

Anymore bugs, keep 'em coming, it doesn't fall on deaf ears ;)

FIXED and Updated
Quick reply should be visible for everyone now.

Wow, this place is really starting to look tight now. Definately much better than Rage3D aesthetically speaking.

It would be kind of cool if the Non-ATi section in Rage3D linked here but I doubt that will happen.

I think I understand why Rage3D does not have picture signatures, have we gotten rid of them here cause Uber had one and it is now gone.

I duno why rage wouldn't have pic sigs.

I took mine down. Currently looking for a better one that gos with this forum and me! *hint* ;)

@ uber

Another little tweak to the interface would be moving the page switcher to the right side of the page. My reasoning for this is because it just seems like it is there to save some microns of space on a website (nuts by itself). Not only that, but it is very understated and is on its own. I had some difficulty finding it.

Having it in between the 'Reply, notify...' bar and the 'previous/next' links would be advisable. The reply bar could also be shifted to the left a little and another bar for the page could fit into the newly made space (not advisable for multi-page threads).

We need the :nuts: and the :hmm: smilies too.

I'd have to say no on this one...

Doing that would have it all on the right side and unbalance the layout of it.

I think what you're wanting is for it to be like Rage's forums huh. Just shifting those few things arround is more work than you realise, trust me. I would have to move the tabs (top and bottom) to the left side (which wont look right either), move the page counter to the right side and then center the previous and next thread links. Sounds easy enough, but like I said, the top wouldn't look right and that's quite a significant change I would have to make to multiple php/html files.
