Forum Layout Change!

Unread postby Hawk » Thu May 21, 2009 9:33 pm

I've re-organized the various categories, moving them up and down to, what I think, better connects with the essence of the Hawk & Badger Railroad - namely prioritizing RRT3.

It may take a time or two to get used to the new layout but I think it will make more sense, considering RRT3 is the main attraction of this site and forum.

Shucks. I don't like it but I do understand why you had to do it. I guess I'll just have to get used to it. {,0,}

I don't like the default styles either.
There is one that can be used that inherits most of it's content from the default prosilver style and it may work through software updates and upgrades. I'm looking further into it, but I would still have to find some time to make color changes to it.

It's all blue! Hopefully one day the forums will change a differ color. I figured I'd just stop by and say I saw that Kilroy was here. And now Kilroy is gone :lol:

FYI. You may already know this.

When I load the page, I have to hit refresh to unscramble the text.

I do need to update Adobe and my problem may relate to this.

Adobe should have nothing to do with it. The problem you're having is most likely a browser issue.
Which browser do you use? I use Firefox V-3.6.3.
I suppose I should check it in other browsers. When I get home later today I'll check it out in a couple of other browsers.

Personally I haven't seen that issue on my end so right now I can't be sure what's causing it.

I don't have any Adobe products installed on my hard drive so there's no way that anything having to do with Adobe would affect the web site.

Well, I tested the forum in Internet Explorer V-8, Google Chrome, Netscape Navigator, and Opera (as well as my default Firefox) and I did see what you were talking about, but only in IE 8.
All other browsers showed fine. And you're right, a page refresh corrects it.

If anyone else is experiencing this, please let me know. Not that I'll be able to fix it, but at least I'll know. ^**lylgh

Seriously though, please let me know.
