Magnificent Ornk Aran Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Yay, the old URL scheme still works. Piperbot is happy.

Well-Actually War Trall In Half Now Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Uh, I actually don't want my birthday showing up. I have the option to not show it on my profile (though I'd remove the date completely if it'd let me), is that enough to ensure it won't show on the side also?

Magnificent Ornk nikki. Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I just tested, Riibu. Deselecting the option to show your birthday on your profile also means that it doesn't show up on the sidebar too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon Celtic Minstrel Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I don't want my birthday showing up, though I dunno if I actually told UBB what my birthday was. I'm also not particularly interested in the birthdays feature in general, especially the cake that appears by people's names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well-Actually War Trall The Ratt Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I've noticed that the mod flags that used to appear directly next to a mod's name now appear below it. Save some space by moving them back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except that moderators and normal users have the same coloured names to people using different stylesheets. While we're at it, emoticons have never worked for people using different stylesheets. Could we have that fixed as well? EDIT: Quote for context. EDIT: Here are a bunch of emoticons to test: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnificent Ornk Dikiyoba Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 PDN colors and emoticons look fine to me on the coffee theme. For those of you on the dark theme, I made a copy of it in which I think I fixed the PDN colors and emoticons. I may not have picked the best color for the PDNs (but I can fix that if you tell me how the colors need to be adjusted to be easier on the eyes) and some of the emoticons are going to have some noise around the edges, but it's better than it was. So switch over and make sure I haven't broken anything. Dikiyoba's fingerprints are now all over the briefly shiny updated Control Panel. Whee!

Easygoing Eyebeast Dintiradan Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Thanks for the changes. Emoticons seem to work; it's only the uncommon ones with the noise, so I wouldn't worry about that. There's just been a few times where I've missed an emoticon in a block of text, and it really changed the meaning of the post. The 'blue' mods are currently coloured 5544EE. I'd prefer a brighter cyan that's more blue-y than the normal users, maybe 00A0FF. If you want more blue and less cyan, up the red and lower the green (maybe 2080FF). Bear in mind I have the design sense of Helen Keller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnificent Ornk Student of Trinity Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 This blue IS so much nicer. I have to post just to see my PDN. Ah-ahhh. I'm partially colorblind, but in a nose-pressed-against-the-window kind of way, I understand that especially noteworthy shades of colors can get special names. Cobalt blue; Prussian blue; royal blue. This one needs a name, better than 00A0FF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
