CIV3 and CTP2 Styles

[Gramphos]

As a complement to all my earlier posts I would like to say that I use Civ3 - light style.

Nice colour! (CtP2) My avatar will look crap, though...

[Eli]

Sorry, but IMO both are ugly.

And my avatar looks horrible on both of them.

In Civ 3 light the '|' betwen report and ip is blue, not white.

This isn't actually to this topic, but you should either fix this or the last thing I said.

I just realized that we aren't supposed to se the ip link.

Am I right?

It is in a postbit_ip_hidden template.
hidden sounds to me as not visible to non administrators.

As the blue '|' is outside the template I think it will show anyway, but I don't know how your system works.

Speaking of hidden stuff:
Are we supposed to se the 'Administrative Options: User Options' in Userinfo pages?

The CtP Light style in IE has a horizontal scroll bar in all windows.

What resolution do you use?
I just changed to light - CTP2, no horizontal scrollbar on my screen 1024x768, IE5.

Good effort. The Civ 3 style isn't so good. But the CTP2 style is ok. I think the brown at the top and bottom could be replaced with something a little better, but that is just nitpicking. The quote color is good, and I don't see where it effects the avatars near as much as the Civ3 style. We should all appreaciate the effort to bring a little variety to the forums. To be fair, it isn't easy to pick a combination of colors that everyone will like. I say diffintly keep the CTP2 style.

Mark,

you seem really obsessed with all these bells and whistles. Please ignore this stuff. More useful for you to spend your time posting your balkan rivalries.

And...um...should I give up the ghost for branching threads?

[Gramphos]

Thanks Mark.

<SMALL>PS I'm still annoyed by that ip thing.</SMALL>

Mark, why isn't the old forum quotes converted to the new forum quote. It's hard to read them you know .

If you can't do a massreplace of them (by searching and replacing the old quote code with whatever it is in the new version) I have to select all that text to read it. It isn't the end of the world, but you get tired of it. No need to hurry anyway, I'm doing fine right now

Black on Blue

The CTP2 light style looks great, Markos. But a small thing on the forum front page you can't read this hardly:

Black on Blue... You should replace the black colour of the letters by the background colour of the CTP2 style.

Very slick looking...

I'm viewing through the civ-3 style, and it looks very good.

The only problem is if people write in that Royal Blue type, it's almost impossible to read.

Other then that, I don't see any problems. Excellent work.
