New Phorum Phormatting

While I hate to rain on dUSt's parade, this new forum formatting is horrible. The text space is too narrow, and all spacing has been removed from between lines.

This results in an ugly, cramped look which is hard to read, especially for longer posts.

Maybe others disagree, but that's my $.02 worth.

The fonts do seems to be a bit large. Maybe Dust can install a font preference module so everyone can set their own fonts? I like the overall coloring, though. "Hate" seems to be too strong of a word given all the hard work that has been put into this upgrade, don't you think?

I actually agree, I'm glad to know I'm not the only one.

Haters beware!

Effective immediately posts critical of the new design will be edited and the poster will be disciplined as follows.

First offense: banned for one month.

Second offense: banned for six months.

Third offense: banned forever, screen name will be deleted along with all of the members posts. Attempts to access phatmass even as a guest will result in automatic browser redirection to Budge's message board.

Fourth offense: image of user being burned in effigy will be displayed on the homepage and user will be automatically subscribed to thousands of spam lists.

Fifth offense: bounty hunters from the future will take you to the planet Gomtath where you will spend 43,000 years watching reruns of MASH.


I'm kidding. I can understand the negative opinions of the new design even if I don't share them. :P:

Cheers! :beer:

Personally I don't mind it but I think the text area for reading is a little narrow.

Also if the above statement is a threat, I will start bashing now. I love M*A*S*H

The worst would be the permanent banishment to Budges board.

God bless-

I like criticism, I really do.

I'm not the type that is easily angered or offended.

In fact, I think the main problem in this world is not excess of criticism, but an absence of self criticism.

Well in that case... If 90 to 100px where added to the insides I think this would please the cramped crew. Also the navigation bar at top over laps pm's when first sent, its some what annoying when each page loads it will do a jig, or something to that effect everything is to one side then it jumps in the middle, which takes up time we need for posting our ramblings...

And whats up with the pinks, blues and reds, thats ghey...

Unless this is dUSt's way of coming out of the closet, I assume he is in the middle of tinkering and the weird colors will pass.
