Topic 191617

Hello again,

I have updated all E@H webpages to the current BOINC versions.

If you find some pages that are not working please report it here.

If you prefer the way the old webpages worked you can report that here as well, but keep in mind that all the changes that were made come from BOINC and not E@H.

Thank you.

Webpage Update

Just one observation:
The fontsize for messagetext in the forums is now smaller, harder to read on large screens/resolutions.
Please set it to it's previous size.

edit:
The forumnames are now also smaller, but thats are not very important.

It may be usefull to use the same fontsize overall in the forums. (No, not the smaller one ;) )

I think I agree with you.

I am at the end of my day right now, but I will take a look at changing this "tomorrow".

Thanks.

ITS ABOUT TIME! whoo hoo! i was getting tired of scrolling UP to read posts.. no offence to anyone, that just seemd odd to me.

mb, font sizes, gotta love um. im legally blind with a visual accuaty of 20/400 if the project wouldnt mind setting the fonts to 72pt id be really happy :) that is ofcourse a joke, not gonna happen. just tryn to be humorous. the color scheams a pain to... hmm.

seeing without seeing is something the blind learn to do, and seeing beyond vision can be a gift.

I know you were joking but ...

If anyone cares, most browsers allow you to set the minimum font size so you never have to look at tiny fonts. Just look at the browser preferences.

ah yes indeed.. currently have mine set to 12pt wich may be why im not seeing what mb is seeing. it just has one problem,, it tends to mess up some site designs that rely on "tiney" fonts for say, table headings.

I had to go reset my forum

I had to go reset my forum prefs.

In long threads, the whole thing was trying to load instead of the the first post and the last 75 posts.

The same thing happened over on Seti when they updated their forum code.

Other than that, everything I see is ok.

On the Mac I only see the id

On the Mac I only see the id and a red cross-box below the posts, no text beside the box (explaining what it might do) and no rating buttons. It might be a missing font or something else. I can see this on MacOS 10.3.9 with Safari as well as the Internet Exploder. Has the rating been removed alltogether, or is this a browser problem?

well, if this is based on what the seti folks done, they removed the + / - all together and replaced them with the "X" .. havent been back there so dont know if its still like that. it was because the rateing where being abused. now if ya have a problem with a post ya hit the "X" and well since im not a mod i dont know, think it gets flagd for review by you guys :)

Correct, the mod's get to review ( what a joy?! ) the 'red-ex reports', as I term them, that are submitted. They are taken seriously, and not infrequently acted upon.
Cheers, Mike.

I wonder how the rating can

I wonder how the rating can be "abused"...?

Anyway, I know what the cross-button does, but without a little description I think that cautious people would be afraid to use it at all, and curious people will just push it to see that what happened wasn't what they expected, at least if they are new to BOINC projects.
