Ben's longest line is less than 1/3 of my total space. Granted, I have a good resolution, but few monitors have smaller resolutions than 1280x768(or along that line) now.

[snoopy369]

You're using REW then, and 1024x768 is a supported resolution, and VERY common.

The main style (Restricted, or Apolyton 2.0) has much less screen space, and does not shrink the size of the sig. If and when REW becomes the default, that number (90) could increase.

[Nikolai]

What is REW? I use the Apolyton 2.0 style.

[snoopy369]

Restricted Extra Wide, the (by far) widest style in terms of post box width.

On REW, Ben's sig takes up just over half of the width of the post box on a 1280x960 resolution. On Apolyton 2.0 it would take up much more than that.

Poly is really slow for me...

Poly is really slow for me...

Same for me for last say 8 or so hours off and on, although I went to bed about 1 am and its now 9 am but intermittent periods and no Bull$hit about what OS,what browser, ect.

ALL other internet sites work great, so it must be something being worked on here, but its understandable, improveming the website takes time

[CivOtaku]

Just testing the time one more time...

Edit: And it works!

I switched to the "Mobile skin" because it seemed to work better at work. Im at home and want to switch it back to one of the more robust skins but for the life of me, I can't figure out how? And no its not obvious in User Control Panel.

[snoopy369]

Don't switch to the mobile skin by changing the skin itself. Use m.apolyton.net and you automatically get switched to it temporarily, but it is not stored permanently. When I figure out how the hack works, i'll make it so it doesn't let you switch to the mobile skin through the control panel.

If you want to switch it right now, see Gramphos' post about 20 up, which links to:

Several fixes to "Personal Notepad" are now in place.

Several fixes to "Personal Notepad" are now in place.

In all my years, I never have used this.

Whats the advantage? (anybody can answer!)

(Or is it just like a normal "Notepad" where you write notes such as coding, tips,hints?)

Mod/admin secrets for later extortion

Thanks

[snoopy369]

It's just a normal notepad where you write yourself notes. I used mine back in the day to keep track of Hangman clues i'd already used (and which one I was currently on), so I wouldn't forget what the current word was

Thank you sir and Ill vote in our next Hall of Fame executive meeting for you to head up our PR division as spokesman.

I think you would do well being our spokesman, setting up our appearances, scheduling autograpgh sessions, ect.

Thanks

Tried to open Poly from my cell phone earlier today. m.apolyton.net got me a white page and "Hello World". m.apolyton.com got me a "this page doesn't exist". m.apolyton.net/forums got me to the right place however. But while I don't use the main page myself, wouldn't it be wise to make other parts of the site available too, and not only the forums? If that's not wanted from the owners' side, what about letting m.apolyton.net/com link to the forums?
