New Skin

[CaliTerp07]

This is a load of crap meatytreats. This skin SUCKS. Why flip **** on us with no notice? Nasty NASTY puke-ish colors. I cannot look at this nasty ****.

PUT IT BACK or at least for gods sake give US the choice what colors we want to see. Puking green is NOT IT.

:nono: :thumbdown:

Holy moly...is this a joke? (If so, not funny) It's just a color! A little overreaction?

Meatytreats, I really like it, but I'm having the same issue with the resizing. My laptop is a normal sized screen, but there are several inches of blank space on either side, and it won't resize if I shrink my window.

 

[MeatyTreats]

well well well. It's easy to see where we fit in, ain't it.

"WE"... Come on... As far as I can tell everyone else has stated their opinion, voted and moved on. Now, YOU on the other hand have acted like a spoiled child. If you want to group others with you, that's fine by me. But, that's not how I see it.

I have a 17" widescreen and I have no blank space on the sides?

 

[CaliTerp07]

I'm in firefox, if that makes a difference.

I tried the resizing and yes that occurs here too...I actually like the smaller window look because there isn't a big border...but that on a BIG window would be great because I use a full window when using forums.

Maybe the color scheme can be seasonal LOL...Spring is coming lots of green and pastels? teehee.

me too ^

The color is fine with me. I don't like that it no longer fills my screen, though. I, too, have the wide bands on either side. I voted "old" because of this.

I don't know the dimensions of my screen, but I have about an inch and a fourth or so on either side. It's not that big a deal or anything. It would look nicer if it filled most the screen though imo.

 

[eddieq]

And I get the bands on either FireFox or IE.

I do in both Firefox and Safari.

I for one, would like to thank MT for giving us the opportunity to voice our opinions and vote on this.

Red, breathe in, breathe out. It's just a skin change, and on top of that, we have been granted the opportunity to SAY something about it instead of just sucking it up and being stuck with it! I know when you disagree with something, you disagree vehemently - and I would expect no less, but breathe

Here is a screenshot.. so I dont know why mine is different lol

 

[smkie]

i still had a page open from the old and am switching back and forth comparing. Can't decide!

I booted it up on Firefox, Safari, Google and *ugh* IE. It's the same on all four.

 

[iwantmypup]

Ditto nilly.
I can't tell which I like better, as it's all cramped up on the phone, but either way it's a nice change.

 

[MeatyTreats]

It is a fixed width... It can easily be expanded to fit the entire screen... The reason it is different on different people's computer is because of your screen resolution. People with 1024x768 will see no borders. People with a higher resolution will see borders, people with a lower will have to scroll.

It's an easy fix, but since many have already voted, I will leave it as it is for now.

 

[Renee750il]

It will take some getting use to, but i imagine that would be for anything that looks different from what we are use to. I don't mind it one way or the other. I liked the old one, but given time i will like this one too.

Trying to figure out how to make the screen fit..goes back to read again.
I voted for the old but now i am not so sure either. Maybe you should poll again one week

That's a really good idea . . . but make it at the end of the second week

 

[eddieq]

MT, when you say "it can be easily expanded" do you mean that there is a setting in the skins to make it expand to fit whatever screen size you have? That would be cool. If it means that you'd make it a wider fixed width and people with smaller resolutions would need to scroll, I'd say the way it is is livable (so as not to screw folks with non-wide screen displays). I'd hate scrolling more than I dislike the smaller width.

Am I making sense?

 

[AgilityPup]

I have no opinion, really. I like this, cause it's clear, and doesn't have the dogs in the background, but either way, I'm fine... As long as I can read what's been said, and still talk to all the wonderful Chazzers, I don't care... So, I'm not voting, cause there's no "I don't care" button.

Yeah, it's a percentage basis... say 95%... So it would take up 95% of whatever resolution you have. So, no scrolling.
