Quick small glitch: the "members active" count at the bottom of the Forum Index is higher than the actual count by 1 (so if 3 members are on the forum, it shows "4 members active in the last 15 minutes").

If we plan on having SC2 and SC1 forums together, I'll whip up a .png for that. Working on a blend between two units, and since I can't make my own right now (SC1 is not at my dorm and is not installed, and SC2 is not owned), I'm kinda...left out. Here's what I got, I'll work on it more later:



Seeing it on SEN is kinda depressing...the SC2 bunker is a lot more obvious in the editor, so much so that I thought I would've had to reduce it, but on SEN it's almost nonexistent.

Honestly, that wont make a difference at all so you're just wasting your time. For some reason Devourer set it up so that you can only choose to see both in your settings. And I really don't want to put a third icon up there.

Why don't we just make the Icons say "SCI" and "SCII" instead of "SCII" and "wraith"?

I think clearer Icons would do wonders for people who want to find SCI or SCII stuff.

The "SCII" icon is literally the executable icon for the Starcraft II game. Brood War has no such equivalent, but the red wraith is what people associate with the game.

The wraith was the icon for SC1 since they patched it for Mac OS X. Years later, it became the icon for PCs as well. I much prefer it to the older icon.

Yeah I know, but the letters "SCI" are much more recognizable than a wriath (which is gray and blue on our site, not red I might add) when I'm looking for SCI-related stuff. There are wriaths in SCII as well.

The point is, its easier to make the connection "oh this tab is SCI and this tab is SCII" when its a SCI and SCII icon right next to each other (text) than it is when its SCII with a wriath next to it.

If someone wants to modify the SC2 image so it only reads SC1 (and make it look good), then I may use that instead of the wraith.

My attempts:

Compare to SC2 icon:

Found a red wraith while searching for a resizeable SC1 icon:



And found and resized this:



I can add color and whatnot, but I'd like to know if you'd consider it first

Yeah, that red wraith was the original SC icon for Macs.

Stumbled upon this and found a way to force wrapping of long lines in posts. It's the same trick I used on the Main Shoutbox. Only tested in Firefox.

A post is a div#truepost_XXXXX; set table-layout:fixed on all div#truepost_XXXXX>div.box>table.basic. Then set word-wrap:break-word on all div#post_parse_XXXXX.

Odds are, this fix'd need to be made in each skin's skin.php to be effective. I'm a lazy emo probably-depressed bastard without any FTP programs or my old SEN backups/files, so does anyone with access here feel like making this fix to each skin?

(I really should get FireFTP onto my Portable Firefox, and then see if it can connect to SEN... except that all the access info Devo gave me is inaccessible, as it's trapped on the HD of my non-functional personal computer. (I'm using the family computer right now.))

EDIT: If you do that and also apply overflow-x:auto to div#post_parse_XXXXX nodes, then you'll be able to prevent page stretching with quotes -- a scrollbar is forced to appear. (Without the table-layout:fixed rule on the table, it doesn't work, as the DIV lacks an intrinsic width since its parent TD lacks an intrinsic width. Setting table-layout:fixed results in the DIV having a valid (per se) width and hence overflow has an effect.) Again, tested only in Firefox.

EDIT2: This guy is right and you can fix it by adding code at the end of the bbcode_collapse function to change $(obj[0].previousSibling).find("img").src.

Code

[align=center][line=10px]
[line=20px]
[line=40px]
[line=60px]
[line=80px]
[line=99px]
[line=100px]
[line=101px]
[line=120px][/align]

The line=#px code works fine, until =100px. Then it views that as 100%, regardless of the "px" specification. Also, kudos to whoever put in the #px part without telling us

That one made me laugh. I tried to quote someone, and after a while, here's what shown up:

PX support would be because it's writing the value directly to the HR's STYLE attribute -- in other words, due to CSS. You could probably also use "em" (X-height), "in", and "cm". As for PX > 100 not working, I'll bet it's due to some coding shortcut resulting from the original coder not expecting CSS-based non-percentage units in the value.

It's just at 100px. For example, 400px:

So, basically, would I have to use some other measure if I were to want a 100 pixel line, or can you fix it without too much effort? If the latter is the case, then don't worry. 99 or 101 is close enough nobody would notice.

The Portal's Main Statistics says 5719 members, but the Members page says there are 7751.

That's been mentioned before. Probably by you. In addition, the reason is because the 7751 are total members, while the 5719 are registered.

Oops.
But how can there be unregistered members?

If they entered an e-mail and verified it when they signed up? I don't remember if SEN does that, but that's my guess.
