ATS looks much better

The suspense about it staying this way is killing me, I hope it lasts.

I feel like such an idiot to be asking this but what "new" change are you talking about? And yes i'm dead serious lol.

a reply to: SLAYER69

Did you try replying to a post yet? Big surprise there.

Also, big surprise in looking at "replied to" links now.

I think the avatar creations team might be happy about the consistent screen res....it'll allow clever animations to tie into the background.

a reply to: SkepticOverlord

Oh WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

from what i can see, all it does is shrink things down even more....makes it harder to read.

i'm not liking it.

BTW, the emoticons are still ugly as sin, and i think there's something wrong with youtube video embedding.

EDIT: what the hell is "OTG" and do we need to have the tribute to '___' in the background for EVERY PAGE?

also, the reply to button doesn't work for me..

EDIT 2 seriously? the abbreviation for "Lysergic acid diethylamide" is censored?

I like the reply to thing, you can scroll back up and see in case you missed anything.

Nice one.

Try refreshing the page.

I am having to refresh the page to reply to threads.

You can "zoom" in with ctrl-+

Is the change the waste of 2/3rds of a screen on the sides or something else?

a reply to: bigfatfurrytexan

Minor bug. Should be corrected now.

a reply to: bigfatfurrytexan

ok, that's pretty slick....

the other issues still stand..

a reply to: SkepticOverlord

Love the new reply look but preview isn't working for me.

a reply to: blupblup

Agree

Sometimes I'd have multiple threads open in different tabs and forget which thread I'm replying to because the old way didn't show thread title etc.

OMG Honestly? Just what ATS needs MORE American patriotism. This is a bit much... Too much. Loving the new updates but the background is making me feel very uncomfortable as a non American.

See we used to have huge gaps at the side, I can't remember what was before this now? Was it gaps again or did it fill the screen?

i know how to zoom...why should i have to? it was fine before...and it's gonna be damn near unreadable on my tablet, unless i zoom and unzoom....

a reply to: Daedalus

Okay, glad to know that the resolution change is not with my computer

Will take some getting used to but other than that, seems alright


[ETA: Thanks BFFT for the zoom help....much better!!]

There's a number of minor changes, some very useful like the new in-line reply function, others the result of a long review of our logs and site usage.

We (I) was perhaps too aggressive in planning for a wide page and screen size for the totality of our audience, and the larger than expected number of legacy browsers/systems still hitting ATS… which has actually been increasing over the past few months.

See I can't actually see what it is? It's just a load of multicoloured mess on my screen, can make out an O but it's all just colour and patterns.

Never this big a gap, it used to be much smaller.
