Not much you would see. If you look closely you'll notice some small changes on the forums. That is about it. The changes were made to make it more search engine friendly (SEF = more traffic). With that I had to change a lot of code. Please let me know if you run into any bugs with the new changes.

About the font, it is the same. Maybe it looks a tiny bit smaller? I could bump it up. edit I made it larger. Better?

The logo is a different color? Really? Can you give me a screen shot?

About the smell, nothing new.

Bevan · « **Reply #4 on:** 01:13PM 02/01/2006 »

yeah but the top rated rides, viewed rides recent rides, got a line going right through them now, from the banner.

Plus the text is too small.

Damon · « **Reply #5 on:** 03:50PM 02/01/2006 »

Weird. What browser are you using? Are you on a PC or a Mac?

Everything else look ok?

PearlJammzz · « **Reply #6 on:** 03:55PM 02/01/2006 »

My car runs like an 18, lol. Can you fix that? I'm sure a Moser 12-bolt, LS1, and T56 would fix it just fine

.

PS, everything looks good to me...

Teknik_DC2 · « **Reply #7 on:** 12:40AM 02/02/2006 »

Everything is looking fine for me too. except for the font is really small. I can bearly read it.

Jeffrey · « **Reply #8 on:** 02:19AM 02/02/2006 »

Everything good. Text is way to small IMO though. Kind of annoying zooming in on my screen to read.

Phoenix · « **Reply #9 on:** 04:12AM 02/02/2006 »

ya, the whole top of the page is messed up and the text is too small.....

Thanks Phoenix. That's what I need so I can see.

1) I got rid of the off-aligned words.
2) Is the logo fixed for you now?
3) Is the fixed now?

Ran · « **Reply #13 on:** 08:33AM 02/02/2006 »

Bevan · « **Reply #14 on:** 08:38AM 02/02/2006 »

But now the text is way to small-ie what people type, the unread posts, etc...

Weird. That should have stayed the same. I'll look.

Thanks guys.

Phoenix · « **Reply #16 on:** 09:08AM 02/02/2006 »

Before

After

just something im seeing, id like to think you want the site as perfect and professional looking as possible.

Phoenix · « **Reply #17 on:** 09:15AM 02/02/2006 »

heres the text difference im seeing between this board and other boards. This is actual size that i see.

Eliterides

other boards

on yours, the text is alot smaller compared to other boards and if you can see where it shows who the moderator is.....ya.

Damon · « **Reply #18 on:** 09:18AM 02/02/2006 »

This is so weird. Everything is fine on mine. I'm still working on it. Thanks for the help guys.

Is the banner fixed now Phoenix?

I have to do some work stuff for a bit. I'll be back on the text later.

Phoenix · « **Reply #19 on:** 09:26AM 02/02/2006 »

i dont know, maybe my computer just doesnt like the new changes....it doesnt bother me too much, i would hate for it to deter other people from registering though.

text is still small
banner is still messed....see what other people have to say before fixing it.

Damon · « **Reply #20 on:** 09:30AM 02/02/2006 »

Font fixed now?

Phoenix · « **Reply #21 on:** 09:34AM 02/02/2006 »

hahahahahahahahah......too big, too big (asian chicks say that to me alot).

might need to go down a notch, the post text though is still the same, but the actual forum text is huge! maybe bring it down halfway from what it is now to what it was before. lol!

Damon · « **Reply #22 on:** 09:36AM 02/02/2006 »

F! I hate this s h i t! lol

Phoenix · « **Reply #23 on:** 09:51AM 02/02/2006 »

back to small......hahahaha

Damon, have you considered getting new software....such as the new vbulletin which is really sweet and i think you will be able to do everything you have done and more with it. Its $160 bucks but i think we could all chip in and get it. Ill throw in 20 bucks for it. We get 8 people (mods) to do the same, and you got it.

check out www.mr2board.com.....its a good setup.

Damon · « **Reply #24 on:** 09:53AM 02/02/2006 »

No way. Vbulletin sux for compatability. Plus, I hate their redirects after making a post. Believe me, I've used them all. I've been a mod for a few and a dev for one. I know them all in and out. These forums are much more versatile. It's not hard to make these changes. I've just integrated them with the entire site. So, if I change the forums I change the site. I need to just make sure it works across the board (no pun intented).

It's just tricky doing this at work.

Phoenix · « **Reply #25 on:** 09:58AM 02/02/2006 »

okay...just a suggestion

you dont have to yell at me....gosh

Damon · « **Reply #26 on:** 10:05AM 02/02/2006 »

p u s s y.

The text any better?

Phoenix · « **Reply #27 on:** 11:15AM 02/02/2006 »

lol

still looks small, it might be the font....i dont know

Bevan · « **Reply #28 on:** 11:57AM 02/02/2006 »

everything looks good now. on my end at least.

The text is still a bit smaller then usual.

Damon · « **Reply #29 on:** 12:16PM 02/02/2006 »

How about the text now?

Phoenix · « **Reply #30 on:** 12:47PM 02/02/2006 »

try to go .025485 sizes bigger

Damon · « **Reply #31 on:** 12:56PM 02/02/2006 »

For all the text, or in a certain area?

Bevan · « **Reply #32 on:** 01:01PM 02/02/2006 »

just the responses....

Everything else looks ok. But when i type a response its small text.

Damon · « **Reply #33 on:** 01:04PM 02/02/2006 »

F! The responses are huge on my end. When you say responses do you mean the text you are typing (and if so, is it on replies and when you make a new post) or the summary of replies below it?

Bevan · « **Reply #34 on:** 01:30PM 02/02/2006 »

both.

however it is getting bigger.

Damon · « **Reply #35 on:** 01:54PM 02/02/2006 »

Is that a good thing? Does it look ok now?

Bevan · « **Reply #36 on:** 03:35PM 02/02/2006 »

looking good.

dont have to squint anymore to read what someone wrote

Damon · « **Reply #37 on:** 04:05PM 02/02/2006 »

~~Cool. I'll work on fixing the banner logo tomorrow.~~ Is the logo fixed now?!

Does the font look like the same size it used to be then?

What about the Rides page? Can you two let me know how that looks for you?

Phoenix · « **Reply #38 on:** 01:31AM 02/03/2006 »

the banner is off again, not the color but the placement of the logo, it sticks up an 1/8th of can inch above the rest of the top banner.

the text looks good know, except the actual post text.

Damon · « **Reply #39 on:** 08:19AM 02/03/2006 »

I tried it on an old browser and saw the logo off. You're so old skool, Phoenix. :p Is the logo fixed now?

Bevan · « **Reply #40 on:** 08:36AM 02/03/2006 »

logo looks good to me,

except the actual response text is too small again, as well as the show unread since last visit, new replies and the topics.

Damon · « **Reply #41 on:** 08:38AM 02/03/2006 »

Yeah, I want to get one fixed before tackling the next so I don't go back and forth over and over. As long as the logo is good, I'll work on the text.

WHAT ABOUT THE RIDES PAGE? lol. No one has checked. Will someone please check for me. Does the header and footer look ok there?

Can anyone post a screenshot of the reponse text, unread and new replies?

Thanks

Bevan · « **Reply #42 on:** 11:21AM 02/03/2006 »

ride page looks good.

Text size is looking better too, for the responses, undread and new replies

If i knew how to screenshot i would.

Phoenix · « **Reply #43 on:** 07:41PM 02/03/2006 »

press print screen or prt sc on your keyboard and paste in windows paint.

id like to see some screen shots from other people of the site so i can decide if its my computer or damons.

Damon · « **Reply #44 on:** 08:28PM 02/03/2006 »

You just have a ghey computer. I've tried it on 3 computers and different browsers.

PC's and Macs, Firefox, IE, Safari, etc. The way it is now finally works good on all computers. If it's not on yours I still want to fix it. I would like it fixed on all.

Can you post another screen shot? It's basic coding issues noww. I wonder it it's something with how things are interpreted where you are at? Post another screen shot. As soon as I get the chance I have a sure way to fix it. I'll just stick to the basics. How is the Rides page for you though? Is it just the forums?

New forum sucks, it's like reading a "Reader's Digest".

Damon · « **Reply #49 on:** 07:16PM 02/04/2006 »

@ Ran. Clear your cache.

@ slomofo. What is that mean?

Ran · « **Reply #50 on:** 11:42PM 02/04/2006 »

lol...my cache is clear..

Phoenix · « **Reply #51 on:** 03:51AM 02/05/2006 »

its perfect now!

perfect size text, your still ugly, banner looks good, but i think the banner text should be a tad bit bigger just to fill it up a little bit.

Damon · « **Reply #52 on:** 04:18AM 02/05/2006 »

If it was clear then it'd look good.

I had the same issue.

Glad it looks good now. I still have to bump that header text up one size. Thanks for everyone's help so I could make sure it was good for everyone.

Phoenix · « **Reply #53 on:** 08:56AM 02/05/2006 »

slomofo was probably referring to the size of the text, how small it is......in a dickhead way.

poindeXta · « **Reply #54 on:** 11:34AM 02/05/2006 »

I'm sure he's heard "d!ck" and "small" in the same sentence a few times before.

Phoenix · « **Reply #55 on:** 11:43AM 02/05/2006 »

the rides page text is still small, forums look good

Damon · « **Reply #56 on:** 12:04PM 02/05/2006 »

Which text? All of it? Is the header and footer good?

Phoenix · « **Reply #57 on:** 12:11PM 02/05/2006 »

the page text

ill get back to on the other stuff later

Phoenix · « **Reply #58 on:** 10:36PM 04/02/2006 »

make up your d a m n mind on the site!

Ran · « **Reply #59 on:** 09:58AM 04/03/2006 »

Yay! Its on the right again

Damon · « **Reply #60 on:** 03:37PM 04/03/2006 »

ha ha. Sorry guys. Always improving on perfection.

J/K Still tweaking things to get ER 100% the way I'd like. Still more changes to make. Just got drunk last night and thought I'd f it up a bit.

Ran · « **Reply #61 on:** 08:03PM 04/03/2006 »

We know that. It's kinda obvious by now.

Jeffrey · « **Reply #62 on:** 09:32PM 04/03/2006 »

Wow...Damon? Drunk?

*sigh* He just didn't seem the type.

2SlowCX · « **Reply #63 on:** 04:55PM 04/04/2006 »

Mess with the fonts a little bit.

Phoenix · « **Reply #64 on:** 02:18AM 04/05/2006 »

Wow, the main page, the forum, everything looks really really good. Very professional looking.

Damon · « **Reply #65 on:** 07:32AM 04/05/2006 »

Yay! Thanks Phoenix. I'm glad you like it. I was hoping everything would still be good in your browser too.

Care to elaborate? How are the fonts for everyone else?
