The background for the site (snow.png 200x200) is set to repeat on the x axis only on the CSS.

Therefore only the top 200px of the site has a background for me. the rest is just blue.

Seems like its missing repeat-y :) (or remove the repeat-x and the browser repeats on both automatically)

also, its like that no matter what BG I choose.

I'm pretty sure it is supposed to be like that for the snow.

As for the other backgrounds, they all load fine here, Windows 8, Chrome, Firefox, Opera and IE10.

they all do it for me? Each BG is a strip across the top

That's how it's supposed to be. It would look tacky if it repeated indefinitely. :o

True, the snow one does looks good just at the top and it fades out to transparent at the bottom. The others shouldn't thought I don't think

edit: they all fill the full screen for me on the news page, but not on the forum. Guessing its some overlap of code between the new snow BG which doesn't repeat and the old full ones which should.

How do I change to snow?

Only tiles I see are the normal ones

Select default.

I don't actually get any background on the forum at all.

The ad has a 100% width box which covers the snow for me. I only see the bottom of it.

Same here. Ad obscures everything else. :(

Actually... it doesn't look that bad if it repeats both ways. Still prefer 'Y' only though.

I'll admit that I use adblock and that's probably why only I have noticed this. since the ad will cover it for anyone else who doesnt. (Didn't even know there was an ad there!)

also, I set the BG to repeat on the Y axis and thought it looked good with the snow, that how I almost failed with my first post :laugh:

however, I do still see it on the forum with any BG so there is a problem. Was a big "phew" when I noticed that :)

    • Cheap labour, the same as the U.K. China pays their people pittance.
    • Those people that come over here on boats are already in a safe country, if they want to come over here then do so correctly though the right channels. I was born in the U.K, my family that came over here came so via the proper means. My partner came here via the correct channels, she also became a British citizen, she knows more about this country than most of them that was born here, including myself, she worked hard to do what she does. She will stick up for this country and have done a few times, when people from her own part of world have put the U.K down. We are not going to agree, all I said to start with is that maybe Trump has the right idea with this America first thing and maybe we should start doing the same. Maybe not as drastic as what he is doing, but we do need to sort this country out, we need to sort out tech instead of relying on the U.S and others. Again you have not shown why you are so annoyed that we have left the E.U and this is what it is all about? If you don't live in the U.K and live in the E.U are you annoyed that we left your little club? If you live in the U.K and is pro-E.U, then fair enough then I can see how it annoys you. Are you one of these people who lives in the U.K and have a holiday chalet in the E.U and can now only stay there for so long? If so, then that is bad luck. As I have posted before, I have no problem with people coming here to work, as long as they do if via the proper channels. We are out of the E.U, people voted out, and maybe if more people had voted instead of sitting on their backsides the results would have been different. But they like the E.U and our government thought no we would not vote to leave. How wrong they were, surprised me. I expected to wake up in the morning and hear on the radio that we voted to stay. As I said, we are out and have been for 10 years, we are not going to go back in anytime soon if we ever do, so we all need to make the best of how things are. Anyway, this is supposed to be a tech site.
    • Tim Cook: "The US over time began to stop having as many vocational kinds of skills." What's the point of wasting time getting those skills if you can't get a job with them? Good Lord, maybe he and his cohort of CEO's who exported all these jobs to China should just shut the f**k up :D
    • I made a new Cinematic/Trailer for the game, this will be the intro, still a work in progress!  I also updated the Steam page with a ton of new screenshots! 👀 https://store.steampowered.com/app/3925340/Incoherence_Dark_Rooms/
