tornado2007:

what why all of a sudden do you mind dolly?? what happened???


Actually I told you before, it's PD or PolskaDoll. Dolly can be other members.

tornado2007:

PolskaDoll:

It's not visible text, you need to read a lengthy quote. It actually makes the new text less visible...

its a game of opinions my dear

PolskaDoll:

Actually, I look at things and decide what I can see and black or grey on a pale background is what I see best. Colours are harder to see on a pale background because they are too bright... :)

as i said, each to their own


Actually, currently, the new text is hidden by the preferred darker and blue quoted text, that's fine. If you like that the quoted text is easier to read than the new text, why would I have a problem with that? Crack on with the blue quotes then! :)

Aren't black and grey colors?

Of course this blue scheme is terrible and not better than the gray faded things.
Admin is obviously acting like a little spoiled brat here. He's using an old tactic of an immature and hurt ego:

fvck it up. people protest.
fvck it up more people protest more.
go back to previous fvkcup and people have a false perception of improvement.

The blue overpowers the black. Read back over this thread even! If in doubt, read over several! :)

It certainly does. But then again, admin doesn't like criticism. Not even constructive one. He knows the root password therefore he know it all best :)

admin creates the changes and lets people deal with that... he's in charge, at the end of the day... but you can't say that he doesn't take under consideration our opinions because it's not true...

Hmm, Admin, the blue is not a success, go back to grey, we think it's better.

z_darius, I think you feel the same?

ok last post, on this subject for today, i agree with what your saying. It is overpowering the main post, so therefore why not have the main post in black (Bold) and the quoted text in Black (normal) :) sorted???

It wasn't meant to be success. It was a kind of a revenge of a teenage mind.

as I wrote before, better isn't always the same as good.

I thought there was nothing wrong with the version prior to today.

Why is so? Now you can tell exactly where is the quote vs the text; wasn't that the purpose of your original complaint?

If that was the case, all old "criticism" posts in this forum would have been removed. You may check and go back if that's the case.

Not really. It was asked if it would be tried and it was...it's not great though. :)

If you try the quote in grey for a while and the main post in black you'll see the continuity of it. Give it a chance... ;) A chance isn't a few posts, just see how it goes please.... :)

PolskaDoll explained it well.

It was. But honestly I didn't expect that you're that silly.

You keep the post alright. And then you offer a monstrosity of a color scheme with a comment "let's go back to the 90's". What is that if not rejection of criticism. If you took it seriously you might want to try and lay around with some other color/font/border schemes. Instead you throw at us this intentional garbage.
polishgirltx   Jul 31, 08, 21:10 /  #
ok, what is it all about? you've said that grey is nor visible enough....you've asked to add some color so you got it and it's still wrong....? give it a try and we'll see...?

Excuse me, are you refering to me or to the other poster who requested to see how this "silly" change would look like?:

"tornado2007:
It can't be that difficult to make the text a bit bigger, make it bold and blue, can it???
"

Again, I was not the one to offer this color scheme, read above.

Indeed I missed that.
I think tornado should be banned for at least 3 minutes.

I'm not sure if this has been asked before:
When I quote a text written in separated lines
(like this:
"tornado2007:
It can't be that difficult to make the text a bit bigger, make it bold and blue, can it???"

written by Admin in message: Jul 31, 08, 21:11 #74)
the quote looks like this:
Admin:

"tornado2007:It can't be that difficult to make the text a bit bigger, make it bold and blue, can it???"


- the split between lines disappears (of course if the total text's length is too much for one line it is divided, but in a different place)
- the original formatting disappears.

Krzysztof:

the quote looks like this:

Yes, and that's how it's supposed to work. If the original formatting was to be left, then technically the letters should be the same size too. Instead, quote text is always the same so that it's easily recognizable as a quote.

If the original formatting was not changed, then the page would be longer (if someone quoted a text with many lines, you'd have to scroll the page down a lot until you see the actual reply).
