we hope to get more smilies added too.

hope you guys like it and will be patient if there are a few kinks to work out here and there.
you have LIZZY to thank for all of this - she designed the whole thing all by herself.

special thanks to ray at capitol for working so hard to update the whole site and work with us on the skin - he's awesome.

It looks okay, I suppose. But it's very slow. When you click on the skin selector, how come you can't change back?

I like the fact that the quotes are in green.

I don't wanna sound like an ungratefull ass. It must have taken alot of work.. I bet I'll like it after a couple of days. Just takes some adjusting.

you don't have a choice - this is the skin. sorry if you're not happy.
it's not slow for me...is it for anyone else? maybe your computer needs time to save it to cache memory.
it's a change but we hope it's one you will like once you get used to it. we wanted to integrate the vines new artwork into the site, and again, lizzy has spent untold hours working on this. personally, i really like it - especially all the green.

The lighter green is a bit blinding. Is there any way that can get toned down a touch? And I think the header is not sized properly. It's sticks out on the right.
Cool....IT'S REALLY VINEY!!

Feb 11 2006, 01:34 AM
the header is balanced on my screen.
is she weird
Feb 11 2006, 01:38 AM
Same on my screen............Linda, darling........but down the bottle

It's not that I don't like it, it's very.. new. And green. And.. it looks great, Sure does. Hooee. Just take a while to adjust.

See how it looks on my screen? See how some of the right sides stick out too far? It's a formatting issue as it should look uniform on all pc screens. Maybe Ray can help with that.

thats just your browser
it makes the pictures too big and messes up the format
theres nothing ray can do about it

^ good! that's what it's supposed to look like.
yeah, try maximizing linda.
whoa. that sounds dirty.

Jen you're the only one who could have possibly pointed out that that could be taken as dirty

is the scroll bar working?
wonkytooth
Feb 11 2006, 02:10 AM
it is for me. you don't need the 'quote' button anymore though. the 'reply' button does it all for you. i don't remember that when we tested it...
Vine ♠ Child
Feb 11 2006, 02:10 AM
I notice is doesnt quote. I mean, the quote button doesnt work. I have to hit the reply button next to it in oder to quote someone.

I think it looks great! green is my fav colour

you did an awesome job Lizzy
Endanger
Feb 11 2006, 02:39 AM
Green is my fave color since I've loved The Vines. They changed the forum! It's pretty neat, but it might be a lil over the top I think.

Well that was a bit of a freak out.
Endanger
Feb 11 2006, 02:45 AM
yea, they freaked out on every possible thing that can be changed to Vines...too many.
Tinkerbell
Feb 11 2006, 02:49 AM
Yeah. But it also freaked me out. It was like that website where you go there and look at this empty room for a bit then suddenly that painting called 'The Scream' flashes on and someone screams?
That's how it felt when it opened.

I do like the green color of the quote boxes.
There just should have been a warning to shield my eyes before it appeared in all it's green-stripey glory.
Endanger
Feb 11 2006, 02:55 AM
I can deal with the color changes, and maybe the background, but the header and The Vines logo being next to each section is a lil much
like u said tho, I can get used to it

how sad is it that the right side of the screen makes me think of ryan and his stripey sweater?
the header is the best bit to me - especially how lizzy got the 'dot com forum' to be the same font as the new vines one on the homepage.
