IceDogg Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I kinda identify people visually and sometimesI do read people's details; so I just scale the avatar down and squish all the details into one blob in case I want to look at them. Yea me too, that's why that style only hides the details. All you have to do is hover under the users name and the details for that user appears..but I think I understand what you mean. Maybe you don't want to have to even hover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=696360Can we please have this looked at? I know its a small thing but would really improve the usability of the forums. It's been addressed; you just don't like the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asoldier Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Personally I love it. The updated color scheme and layout are great. However; I have noticed that the horizontal dropdown menubar at the top is a little buggy on IE 7. Occasionally, the menu sticks when the cursor is no longer on the menu. This causes some navigation issues when trying to navigate other topics and headlines. Gratefully, I can still navigate by tabbing to the desired link. Other than that, no complaints!

Wannes Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 One short note about the "Latest activity" box. I've mentioned this earlier but when I click a link it always takes me to the first post of the topic unless I click the arrow. Now if you where to add the tag "getnewpost" the link would take me to the new posts since my last visit. This means that, if I've never read the topic, I'd end up being at the first post but if the topic isn't new I'd end up at the newest post. I find this better than always displaying the first post. Most of the times you've read the post already and don't need to read it again. But that's my 2c. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t851130 Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I love the theme but in Internet Explorer 6.0 it loads pretty slow compared to Shift. I can see in the status bar it is loading every item. E.g. (245 items remaining) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calum Veteran Posted December 10, 2008 Veteran Share Posted December 10, 2008 (edited) I love the theme but in Internet Explorer 6.0 it loads pretty slow compared to Shift. I can see in the status bar it is loading every item. E.g. (245 items remaining) Another reason for everyone in the world to upgrade to Internet Explorer 7 :rolleyes: (or even just use a browser that actually conforms to web standards, such as Firefox) Surely nobody should be using Internet Explorer 6 anymore? Even businesses. Also, the speed of your Internet connection might be playing a part in this. Edited December 10, 2008 by cJr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy0 Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Might just be me, but the LFA box is still doesn't line up right (see pic below) Using Firefox 3.0.4. I don't know what has caused it, but the problem has been resolved and the LFA box is appearing correctly for me now. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redeemed Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 I see that the blog button (used to be a dropdown menu in Shift) at the top of the page is once again a dropdown menu! Hooray! :) (Y) That was one of the things really bugging me...glad to see that the devs have fixed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steeley Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I must have been hiding under a rock! I only noticed this thread yesterday after trying to find out why the forums hadn't been updated yet! Looks brilliant. I personally think it will be a shame when neowin moves away from making the front page and forums looks the same. It adds unity to the site.

Andrew Lyle Global Moderator Posted January 2, 2009 Global Moderator Share Posted January 2, 2009 I must have been hiding under a rock! I only noticed this thread yesterday after trying to find out why the forums hadn't been updated yet! Looks brilliant.I personally think it will be a shame when neowin moves away from making the front page and forums looks the same. It adds unity to the site. It is still just a Beta, which is why the new Finity forum skin isn't set to default, because there are a lot of bugs to fix still. Also with the possibility of IPB 3.0 coming around, it might take even longer. The front page was something they designed themselves, and not skinned, like IPB is, making the transition faster and can make the site go live much quicker.

houlty Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 liking the finity theme so far... only things i'd say are that i can't find an option to go to the advanced search page on the main forum page (is there one?). and also a cleaner break/definition between pinned and non-pinned topics would be nice (kinda like the shift theme)...

what Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 So when is this coming out of beta? Or is it already final? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timan Veteran Posted January 13, 2009 Veteran Share Posted January 13, 2009 I love the theme but in Internet Explorer 6.0 it loads pretty slow compared to Shift. I can see in the status bar it is loading every item. E.g. (245 items remaining) I believe it has to do with the ads/png fix. Right now if we continue with the plan on upgrading the forums to ipb3. We will no longer be supporting IE6. If it works it works, but if it doesn't, we won't go out of our way to fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonlang Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 im soooo late i know, but didnt access neowin too often over the last few weeks. i like finity; and its interesting to see that now the darker colors seem to be back - generally. i bet in 2 or 3 years, brighter colors will be the way to go again. :D good work, i like it.
