New theme and some formatting issues

Submitted by Steel Rat on Sat, 02/12/2011 - 10:41am

Hello again all,

I've got a new theme going and a new front page. There are some weird things happening that I haven't worked out yet, such as the Gallery navigation menu disappearing when looking at anything except the top level of the gallery, and the main top navigation bar disappears when entering the gallery.

I'll be working on these issues as I can, but please let me know of any other issues going on that seem strange.

Hi Steel Rat, A few notes

Submitted by ProBono on Sat, 04/02/2011 - 5:25am.

Hi Steel Rat,

A few notes (feedback only, no complaints).
The new theme colour looks brighter and nicer than the older one.
When uploading images I got a line of error code but they uploaded fine anyway. (I neglected to copy the error sorry).
Occasionally the Gallery sample picture does not appear - only a broken-link type symbol (the gallery still accessable).
When in a Map gallery, zooming in, there is a vertical scroll bar but no horizontal one. Hence can't peruse the right hand side of a big map without downloading it first.
It's a pity you have to use CAPTCHAs now - spammers need impaling.
Everything else appears fine, so thanks for all the hard labour!

Thanks for the feedback

Thanks for the feedback ProBono.

If you see that error again, please copy it and paste it in a comment here and I'll see if I can pin it down.

As for the sample pics, I'd try clearing your browser cache, there might still be some conflict from the old site.

Someone else mentioned the scroll issues. If you're using firefox, you can right-click and choose View Image, and you'll see the entire image in your browser window. I'm still looking into a better gallery theme that will work for us.

Roger that on the spammers. Castration's too good for 'em.

Hi again SR, I've AOL which

Hi again SR,

I've AOL which may explain the scroll point. On my old PC I had both AOL & Firefox, so I may eventually install Firefox again.

Forgot to mention that I can't Star Rate TechnoShamans ZZE series Zombie maps, many of which I really like. I can give Star Ratings for Objects and other Maps.

And my Avatar is gone. Probably a good thing.

The scrolling thing is all

Submitted by Steel Rat on Sun, 04/03/2011 - 8:42am.

The scrolling thing is all browsers, not just AOL. I'd recommend Firefox...

For some reason the rating option on the modern maps album was turned off. Probably happened during the upgrade. I've turned it back on, you should be good now. Thanks for the head up.

And the avatars aren't working for anyone, still haven't worked that out.
