No hate please :(
I'll try to fix any errors regarding the skin as soon as possible, i was out for the weekend..
Feel free to contact me with issues that are directly tied to the forum skin, and i'll see to getting those fixed ASAP
It's cool, I wrote that this morning :P No coffee + too little sleep == painfully cranky moonwitch :P
No, but there are issues as touched in this thread. I also strongly feel that a slightly different color scheme would do wonders. It could even spur a psychological effect. Something in the lines of "new colors, the new and improved wowace" and put a fun BETA image/tag on it. That way, you could have a laugh with everything going on. Because in all fairness, this is still a bit a beta :P It's a WIP, as everything always is.
Also, could I suggest a bigger image or text link for the "go to newest unread post in threads" in the View New Posts section? And perhaps add the "Mark Forum Read" for every forum view. Like I said, it's small things.
I start a new job, which is new to me (full time I've not done in a long time, so I suspect overly tired will be my life theme for a while), but if there's anything colorwise or graphics wise, and I have some time, I'll do my best. Just pm me :)
Guys, can we please keep this thread on-topic? Put the stuff about the login issues in the authentication issue thread. This thread should just be about issues that make the site difficult to use.
Ok, still the skin thread here, right? *whew* Good.
I noticed an issue with the forums in Firefox 3.0.1, but only in the Linux version. The line that says UserCP, FAQ, Member List, etc., is dropped down below the top funky-colored area and into the beige-colored area. It actually overlays the forum navigation tree. (The part that says WowAce Forums > General > General Chat.) This makes it rather difficult to use either the forum navigation tree OR the UserCP line.
The header looks a lot better this morning. There's still an odd gray bar hanging down over the forum navigation links, and the Ace logo has a different color background, but I think those are both png issues because IE6 sucks.

ya that'd do it. IE6 doesn't do transparent PNGs properly.
Well, technically, it does transparent ones, but not translucent ones. :P
It'll do fine with 100% transparent pixels, but anything with a partial alpha will not display properly on IE6 without some DirectX filter hack (or something like that). IE7 should be fine.
