In space no one can hear Posted August 22, 2010 Posted August 22, 2010 Site looks great. Very crisp and streamlined.
boyst Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 Oh, fearless leader, this update is great! Thank you for all you do!
SDS Posted August 23, 2010 Author Posted August 23, 2010 ... nice ... could you change the uniforms too ? ... I wish!
Thirdborn Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 We've been open for over an hour and other than some PMs - y'all are pretty quiet! Nice Job! I like it.
jester43 Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 is it me, or is this really similar to the board looked like 10 years ago (minus the threaded views, of course)?
Chandler#81 Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 Jeez! I go away for 2 days and 'Dad' changes the locks! Scared the hell outta me when I first logged on! Pretty impressive so far from what I've seen. Thank you SDS!
millbank Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 you young people and all this change. Good Oatmeal, 1% milk, apple sauce, perhaps a rampage of chocolate milk and cookie eating once in a while, but all this hard for a simple poor old man. . It does seem very nice though, perhaps once I have figured out the last change I can begin to understand this one. Good for you Scott, the "Wall" does endure .....
rockpile Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 I like the changes Scott. Thanks again for your efforts!
nick in* england Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 Q: how backward-compatible is this browse-wise? Will it work in IE 6 (what they use at work. I know, I know..) I'm on IE6 at work too - but the site is definately useable on IE6, if not fully functional...
cantankerous Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 I like the old version better...but maybe i'm just being cantankerous.
Fan in San Diego Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 Just when I got used to the old format!
Orton's Arm Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 well, the tags used for that were deprecated. What used to take 2 words now needs javascript or invalid code to work. The issue is what do people do who don't want a new window/tab? They have no choice. A good point about the people who don't want a new window or tab. That said, I'm still not 100% convinced the W3C should have deprecated that tag. I'd like to see web developers retain the option of having links open in new tabs by default. But I realize there's nothing TBD or those who created the new board software can reasonably do about the situation until or unless the W3C changes its stance. For those not familiar with this sort of thing: the Word Wide Web Consortium--the W3C for short--is a nonprofit, international organization responsible for establishing standards for the Internet. If they deprecate (discourage use of) a given HTML tag, then sooner or later software companies that create browsers will stop supporting that tag. Not only that, but website owners avoid deprecated tags the way that linguists avoid grammatical errors. Most good website owners believe in some variant of the theme of seeking technical correctness, as defined by the W3C. That's a good thing, because both web browsers and websites should be standards-compliant.
bladiebla Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 Just some constructive critisism; imho the spacing between the topics could be a bit less in the topics overview. I find it a bit hard to skim which topics I want to read now.
