Yeah this is wider than the others, which were intended to fit lower resolutions. This is unforgiving is you're below 1280 width.

Will get the other themes back soon though... this is just temp because I wanted to get the new updates out quicker... sorry about the problems, I honestly wasn't thinking about the screensize issue.

Haymaker - sounds like a layout issue with Firefox 2. Sorry, haven't tested that... surprised anyone is still using it anymore. Will check it out, thanks!

[Edit: Front page fixed in FF2 - darn non-compliant browsers :P ]

User posting history added, and can be accessed from a link on a user's profile.

Changed the layout of the map page (the one when viewing a single map). Been struggling to find a decent way to lay things out... I think its ok now.


There may be a lack of updates for some time due to an imminent orgy of Fallout 3

I think with the new map profile page layout, the comments section just begs to be placed under the profile picture section instead of at the bottom of the description.

That's just my opinion though. smiley

Wow Larchy, I'm really happy with what your doing smiley.

I heavily like the idea of a members profile kinda doubling as their portfolio. I was thinking maybe we could give the ability to add like images with a description and download link on the member's profile to 3D Models, Textures or any other game related content. And perhaps with the member journal (another cool addition) we could have the latest journal entry being displayed maybe at the bottom somewhere. I really feel like that's an important step on leading us onto the path to world domination again, and I believe it encourages users to display their work and take pride in their profiles which in turn leads to more activity smiley.

Another idea I just had that I was going to add to my website, a little section to show what users are currently working on and the ability to add a link and small image? So if the feature was implemented right this second, I would put Night Terror as my current project and have a link to the Snarkpit thread and the map's profile on my website aswell as an image I thought looked decent of the map. And perhaps just for novelty, we should have a "classified" option so that members can "hype" or whatever, so if we ever have a highly respected mapper in the future, that is, people look forward to his/her work, and maybe if he is just starting a new map, he could put "classified" and it would create interest smiley.

To Conclude:

I take it that punishing the people for posting oversized screenshots will be a bit difficult if the person and/or persons designing our new site is guilty too???

Geez, I saw a 1.2 meg and a 1/2 meg shot just briefly scanning over the pages a bit. (under 100k guys. IT CAN BE DONE!) smiley


Anywho's, the site looks a bit better, my hats off to'yaz.

Gwil, what did'ja decide about the vidcard situation?


Gots'ta run.
Orph.

hah cool thanks Muhnay smiley Aliasing ftw /

I haven't been able to view the site for the past week as it times out every time I try to visit it. I thought the site was down at first, but after talking to Gwil I found out that noone else was having trouble :/ I'm posting via a proxy at the moment, but that's hardly ideal. Hope the problem fixes itself soon!

Your Welcome.. nope Eraser in Photoshop.

The web page hangs.. takes time to load pages and such. I think it maybe more related to your host than the page its self.

I've noticed recently that backslashes no longer show up in posts anymore, I was wondering if you did this to solve the slashes appearing in people's posts?

Its an unintended side effect yeah... when I redid the posting script I tried a different method of getting around the host adding extra slashes to everything, but its removing all single slashes not just slashes escaping special characters.

I've got a working fix, but can't ftp until this weird connection issue I'm having works itself out smiley

larchy, I get those hop breaks too - the site is not brisk to load but it always does. Very odd. As I say, it is probably just Globat being naff..

Ey Larchy, I got an idea for the rebirth and potential flourish of The Snarkpit.

I'm not certain of this, but I'm pretty sure you've got the e-mails of all our members. Now my idea is simple. Just send an e-mail to every Snarkpit member that's ever joined and say that we're making a big re-launch of the site. We could also start a seperate thread in the forums, so everyone who drops back can let us know hey're back. After that, I think a couple of really good competitions would gain everyone's interest.

Sounds like a bit of work, but I don't know, could bring back hundreds.
