I worked 15 years in the web business, what we have here is something I commonly saw when an artist was put in charge of design without a UI person involved. It looks amazing, but its not quite as functional as you'd like to see.
Was able to get the one added below our post's but would like to be able to have my own for the one off to left of our post's for options they are giving are lacking.
Some skin options would be awsomesauce! Avatar customization would be a huge plus as well. Love the "Like" button! Hate that we lost our forum count and rank/title under our avatars. And finally, where can we see the Trophies we have earned and what we can do to earn more?
http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/...-the-forums-to-fit-window-like-eq1-boards.18/ You'll be able to use a skin that stretches to fit the screen soon.
The old forums were.. to put it bluntly... crap! Slow to load, took forever to change pages, unreliable on posting. Maybe its just me.. but my background is black (on the borders) and parchment coloured in the centre. There are 2 images at teh very top which go as soon as you scroll down far enough. I really don't get whats giving you headaches?
Besides the fact that loading it took longer than pouring out a jar of molassas? I'm happy for the speediness of the new forums, and the cool new features, but agree that the colors are a bit jarring.
Need more avatars and the edit limit of 30-35 mins needs to go! Also noticed that we can't edit our post topics either? (woe be to typos!)
Has anyone noticed a version of the guide rumor threads? and anyone noticed the lack of a gap between the m and any other letter when they are typing? I keep thinking its a typo and going back to fix lol
Aah, didn't scroll far enough up, was expecting it to be closer to the forums like it is on every other forum I'm on. And according to the method on the link it does just the forum or subforum that is open.
This is how I'm seeing it. Oh and to attach a pic just go to the bottom right and attach file, select location and select.
Why can we not post in some forums like "In Testing & Test Server Updates", Chains of Eternity Beta etc... ?? Eshaac
No option for personal avatars and no option for a female wood elf in the default section. And, I just realized I lost all my 'blackmail' worthy pms. Bugger
To do it the way I mention earlier it looks like this instead. But you have to delete IMG off of each end of the link address, not the [jpg] that was a typo.
