TK4999[TK] Posted November 24, 2006 Report Posted November 24, 2006 Hey, I LOVE the new death star background for this site! Great job!
V'Pier[501st] Posted November 24, 2006 Report Posted November 24, 2006 Thanks, I appreciate the compliments, I hope everyone else likes it as well
DoubleTap Posted November 24, 2006 Report Posted November 24, 2006 Hey, I LOVE the new death star background for this site! Great job! I agree, it brought a sinister smile to my face . Nice choice.
TK_Margarita Posted November 24, 2006 Report Posted November 24, 2006 Noticed it last night. VERY cool and Imperial!
Daetrin[Admin] Posted November 26, 2006 Report Posted November 26, 2006 I had the "pleasure" of trying to check the boards over a dial-up while on vacation and am pleased to say that the background doesn't hurt load time at all. Great work V'Pier!!
TK-2833[501st] Posted November 26, 2006 Report Posted November 26, 2006 I went to log on this morning and the background loaded first. My reaction was "Woah. That wasn't like that before...sweet." Most excellent. Cleanest place to troop. None of us could accidentally get dirty in there.
TK-1161 Curt[TK] Posted November 26, 2006 Report Posted November 26, 2006 I logged in and the background loaded and I got all choked up... It was like seeing a picture of home. I had the best times stationed there until some whiney Farm boy blew it up! Seriously, it is really cool. Nice job.
V'Pier[501st] Posted November 26, 2006 Report Posted November 26, 2006 Hehe, I did similar things with some of the other forums I run, just to spice up a dull "seen daily" page with something new.
Daetrin[Admin] Posted November 26, 2006 Report Posted November 26, 2006 The CTN one is also really well done. As you noted there, if some people don't like it they can choose an alternate scheme.
V'Pier[501st] Posted November 26, 2006 Report Posted November 26, 2006 We do have a PDA skin for folks using it at work which is ultra plain and less obvious that it's a forum.
Butah Fett Posted November 28, 2006 Report Posted November 28, 2006 Just a thought, you need to edit the Add Reply and New Topic buttons. They have a white outline on then, makes it look a bit out of place.
Daetrin[Admin] Posted November 28, 2006 Report Posted November 28, 2006 Fast turnaround - looks like he cleaned them up nicely
V'Pier[501st] Posted November 28, 2006 Report Posted November 28, 2006 I did? wow, I didn't know I webmastered this place in my sleep. But the buttons were cleaned up days ago, it's very much possible your browser cache was a few days behind the times. I normally do Control F5 and it forces the system to refresh, if that doesn't work, purge your cache, and do Control F5, the change should show up then.
Butah Fett Posted November 29, 2006 Report Posted November 29, 2006 Well then, hooray for refereshing my browser cache.
Daetrin[Admin] Posted November 29, 2006 Report Posted November 29, 2006 Actually if you're using IE, you can force it to never cache anything. Two other settings you should ensure you set in Tools-InternetOptions-Advanced are: 1) Do not save encrypted pages to disk 2) Empty Temporary Internet Files folder when browser is closed. The first is a no-brainer, the second helps keep that folder from growing out of hand.
Butah Fett Posted November 29, 2006 Report Posted November 29, 2006 Yes, I'm aware of that . This is my work computer, I'm not even supposed to be here.
houndfox Posted August 7, 2008 Report Posted August 7, 2008 Death star background must be old because i am seeing stormtrooper marching on right and left side. I also want to state that i like the background but it drive me nut when i try to scroll down and up the page. It doesn't scroll smoothly but it goes frame to frame when scroll. I am using firefox and when i blocked the background image, Everything goes as should be as in smoothly scrolls but i don't like to block images. I am sure others feel the same way. Any thought on improve this problem? Thanks!
