Different people work on different things. Players were requesting a light version of the forum, hence we updated the current style and added the new light option.


So for clarification please Hoof, are DONATIONS going towards updating of the FORUM?

Thanks for the joke response but an official HCS response as to if I'm funding the minority requests instead of the game would be appreciated :) I'm sure HCS will love the opportunity to respond.

I noticed that fs lite doesn't display the levels/guilds of the posters either

Could we get subsilver2 anyway? No need to edit anything there but the banner. Please?

You're probably funding this...

P.S. Links in the light style look like regular text, had to underline manually.

nice work, just would it be possible to:

1) add go to next page at the bottom of the page (i can see only numbers and are not too frindly to vlick
2) more colour difference between "read" and "unread" topics

also

3) "clickable" links to in game player profile page (as it was in the old old old forum)

And the "online/offline" indicators applied to activity in the game, not the forum (where the majority is logged in as invisible anyway, so they're not that great...)

Can you add a basic dark style? Something without all the curvy edges and shading. Both the dark and light styles give me a headache.

Oh, you can count my donations towards the forum so scoops can feel better about his donations :wink:

EDIT: I really like the light version! Very spiffy!

These layouts, both light and dark are very slick. The backgrounds are a nice touch too.

Observations:
I like that admin posts have a border around them (gold in dark and dark blue in light). Makes it a bit easier to scroll through the myriad of spam to see HCS comments.

On the dark skin, new posts colour is hard to notice.
Also on the dark skin, the over sized " in quotes is a bit overkill :)

My only question is if you are spending so much time working on the forums, how come you are not fixing the issues with fs? for example, the shortcut keys are all the time cutting out, especially when I am hunting. some have said fs helper is the cause of this so i have removed fs helper from my browser and restarted it and it still stops working in the midst of hunting. Can hcs possibly take a look at this issue and do something to resolve this?

This is a browser issue, not a game issue. Isolated to firefox 4

I have mine set on the dark scheme, so my comments are on it.

The new background top banner is pretty cool.
However, I'm a minimalist when it comes to my computer, so while it looks neat, I'd prefer to have the plain old one.
Any possibility we could have the option to have the previous dark style available as a 3rd option? Maybe call it "FS retro". ;)

Admin posts don't stand out too well. I think that should be adjusted a bit.


Bug:
At the bottom where you choose which page you're on, Next/Back links "page x of x", etc, the font color is black (like it is at the top of the page), and the problem is that the background color of the bottom of the page is also black. Therefore, you can't see this text unless you know it's there and you highlight it with your mouse.

Will probably make additional comments as I browse. :)
