News New BigFooty Theme - Feedback and Bug Reports

[Gough]

The new bolded font looks a bit stretched to my eye.

 

[GeelongFTW]

why couldn't we fix the problems of the old system but made it look exactly the same?

Yeah it is a different font as a band aid. I will keep working on it.

It's the same software.

What looks exactly the same?

I like it. Cleaner, less clunky. The text hierarchy isn't as defined,i.e., between quoted post and post in response. But people will get used to that quickly. Headers aren't great. But overall it's an improvement IMO.

OK I get what you're saying.

It simply wasn't worth the resources to fix the old one from scratch.

 

[Cataholic]

The new theme is a shocker.

It's just not cool.

See what I did there?

About not fixing the old one? No.

I have put a bit of time into the headers yesterday and today:

IMO that has better legibility, despite being less bold, because the kerning is better.

I thought it was - there is no other option to modify how that works.

The background is grey. What are you looking at?

Or do you mean background of the posts?

Background of the posts.

Background of the posts.

It's always been white. Have you changed the CSS in your browser manually?

Background of the posts.

Unless you mean the box containing all posts on the page?

I just added a hint of grey to it.

That was it, looked a bit 'glarey' (for want of a better word) to me. Seems better now.

On Mac...
some notes so far.

The Bolded font for read vs unread threads is too similar. Needs to be a bigger distinction.

GFC page has a themed border on both sides. However now there is a blue margin taking up space either side of the screen margin. Hope that blue margin can go away and all that space can be the custom GFC boarder

 

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

Not a fan.

On desktop and ipad.

Difficult to distinguish read threads on ipad and open threads also when doing a search (both), names come up but difficult to see shading on which to select.

Not sure if this is a safari problem or a BF problem, but on my iPad whenever I change from portrait to landscape, it scrolls the the very bottom... Any ideas?

Liking the new theme btw
