KillerRazor Posted September 4, 2009 Author Share Posted September 4, 2009 Yeah. Didn't think I'd be the one to post a topic about it (Tell me if one has been made..) but I am.I think most people have noticed lately, the problem with the images on the forum. When the page fully loads, they squash, to tiny parameters. It is pretty irritating, I think we can all agree, but Admins, does anyone know what caused this?

Ruins of Hell Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 They made it like this so that the wide ones wouldn't change the forum layout. But yeah. It has to be moved over a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruins of Hell Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 I don't know. I'm in Firefox too, it's fine here. I think Safari might be messed up, let me go check.EDIT: No, Safari is fine. I'll test some other browsers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillerRazor Posted September 4, 2009 Author Share Posted September 4, 2009 Not quite certain of what an internet point is..And if it is browser based, I really don't care about getting Firefox, or whatever browser you may use, because really, people should make the forum work for ALL browsers. And if there is more than one person complaining, then, y'know, it is really a problem… Not trying to be an asshole, but people brag about "How much better firefox is than Internet Explorer", but I couldn't care LESS. It works, it is functional, it does the job. I don't care if it gives me a slightly better speed, I use it, WHY don't you make it compatible.This isn't pointed at you Godlord whatsoever. It is what I feel when people tell me that I MUST use their browser because it is better. And I don't know the situation. But if you do have a differnet browser to me, and obviously the other people that have complained in the Shoutbox, and been ignored, there should be a fix for it..

Ruins of Hell Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 We aren't saying anything. I'm checking out IE now to see if it's just IE.Do you mean that the images block the text? You can copy and Paste it into Notepad if you really want to see it…EDIT: It's IE, and the images are majorly screwed up. :azn: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damian666 Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 its irritating… i allready said it to marsh, it is cause sbecause of a mod he installed to resize images that were to large, but that was like 100 times better then now, some images i just cant make out at all :/Damian666 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 He means, and I get this problem, that the images are squashed top to bottom. So their length is the same but their height is squashed so you can't really see the picture.E.G _______Normal -l l It would become - ________ l l l________l l_______lThat example isn't really bi enough to show it.

Godlord Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 @The:> I don't know. I'm in Firefox too, it's fine here. I think Safari might be messed up, let me go check.The only browser I can imagine messing up is Internet Explorer :icon_nif:. Besides I run Firefox 2 (Solaris), 3 (Linux) and 3.5 (Windows) and this forum has no rendering issues on all of them.@KillerRazor:> And if it is browser based, I really don't care about getting Firefox, or whatever browser you may use, because really, people should make the forum work for ALL browsers.

It works, it is functional, it does the job. I don't care if it gives me a slightly better speed, I use it, WHY don't you make it compatible.Website developers write websites written for all browsers, that is however in theory, as Microsoft **refuses** to support the W3C standards, which are de facto standards. It's already a pain in the ass for website developers to write a website, then they have to write support for Internet Explorer six, seven and eight as Microsoft refuses to write a proper renderer for their browser. That's not the way it should work, Microsoft should accept the standards so website developers only have to write their website, not the way round.@KillerRazor:> This isn't pointed at you Godlord whatsoever. It is what I feel when people tell me that I MUST use their browser because it is better. And I don't know the situation. But if you do have a differnet browser to me, and obviously the other people that have complained in the Shoutbox, and been ignored, there should be a fix for it..Even though Internet Explorer works, it's the _only_ mainstream browser which is not conform to de facto standards, such as the ones set up by W3C, unless you're counting embedded systems which are usually incapable of supporting most stuff beyond HTML, XHTML and CSS. Also Internet Explorer lacks security. It's the only browser supporting ActiveX, which then again only works on Microsoft Windows and works without the permission of the user executing it, so it could be written to cause damage any computer using Internet Explorer. These are already two big reasons why somebody should not use Internet Explorer and why Microsoft will ship various browsers such as Firefox, Opera and Google Chrome with Windows Seven.Also, if there's an issue and nobody is online to actually check what's wrong then we are unaware of it and can't do anything about it. Issues and bugs should be posted in a topic and not in the shout box.Regards, Godlord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damian666 Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 so IE fucks up… so what?before marsh installed the mod it was all ok, so thats where it lies, not in my browser...Damian666 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admiral Refuge Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 It's only IE; no other browsers.I've noticed afew issues with the new IE, and compatibility on not just these forums, but many forums; e.g. when you're typing a really long post, it jumps back to the top after every type, etc.@KillerRazor:> because really, people should make the forum work for ALL browsers. And if there is more than one person complaining, then, y'know, it is really a problem… Not trying to be an asshole, but people brag about "How much better firefox is than Internet Explorer", but I couldn't care LESS. It works, it is functional, it does the job. I don't care if it gives me a slightly better speed, I use it, WHY don't you make it compatible.I'd like to say real quick, it isn't a matter of Eclipse not being compatible with all browsers, it's a matter of IE not being compatible with most sites.Since every other browser, excluding IE, works on this site properly; which means the problem lies in IE, not the site.This is of course that Microsoft doesn't commit to standards (they write their own), and web pages are more likely to show up incorrectly on Internet Explorer.Then again, seeing as IE scored among the lowest in the Acid3 test (20/100), as well as IE's failure to handle Javascript correctly, this would be expected.

Your logic must be really fucked up to say that. Like I said, website developers are not supposed to add exotic support, instead Microsoft should learn to accept standards.Regards, Godlord.

damian666 Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 i dont care… IE is a huge part of teh used browsers, so deal with it man XDlisten Goddie, you know we wont agree on it man :)lets give it a rest, this is getting us nowhere XDyou want all non MS, i love all MS stuff, it happens.Damian66 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marsh Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 The feature wasn't that needed. Also i would rather the site work for everyone. Though you should consider moving to firefox ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwen Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Goddie I can confirm this is an issue in IE. I just assumed it was put in place to make the sigs smaller, and was happening to all browsers. It squishes all pics.I would like it to be fixed, but if its for the greater good then so be it. But I dont like the dogmatic approach to "you're using IE so F you" you give….. If anything there should be a poll to see what the most popular browser being used is, and not just this is what im using therefore you all should be.Like it or not, but IE is one of the most popular browsers.I use IE because im too lazy to install anything else, just as im too lazy to really care about the images being squished. I dont care about security, because I dont go to other websites, and the ones I do go to I trust.Everyone has their reasons for using whatever program they are using.Im not fighting with you goddie... and Im sure you are going to pull out some big word rebuttle, but honestly im too lazy to argue IE with you. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruins of Hell Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 I still agree with Goddie. The mod was fine, IE is screwed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwen Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 my post was a little late…it is 100% IE's fault... but if IE is the top if not 2nd used browser, then stuff that works with it should be taken into consideration....But this is all mute.... marsh got rid of the mod anyways.
