Just fixed it Bella! And thanks for providing the screenshot; it really helped a ton. I'm deleting it now just 'cause it's fixed and to keep the page from going all stretchy. But thanks again Razz

I'm not sure if this is 'bug-worthy', but since roughly 3:00 pm pacific time the font in all posts has been different and difficult to decipher using IE 7.

(This may have something to do with the "sorry testing" disclaimer at the head of every post now) Wink

I'm likewise not sure if this is "bug" but I seem to be missing all the drop down menus from the topbar on Chimped Out. Meaning usergroups is unattainable, etc. They have been missing for a few days, IE.

It should be fixed now. I thought I had fixed when Kylan reported it, but I forgot to test it in IE. Sorry about that.

Anyways, the drop down menus are now done in the same style as the ones on default. They're easier to read, less obtrusive, and you can right click them (important if you want to open them in a new tab!). Plus, it's all done with CSS (as opposed to javascript), so there's less page loading too. In fact, the front page for chimped out is now 50% smaller in file size.

However, I still have not tested it in IE v. 6. Can someone confirm for me whether or not it works in that browser?

I have IE 7 and it works for me. Dunno if that's helpful. *shrug*

Anyway. After a quick survey in Chat, it seems I'm not the only one that's missing the movable Quick Reply. Not sure if it's gone for good or it was just an accident, but it seems to be absent for a lot of folks.

Same here. I never use it, so I hadn't really noticed, but it is handy every once in a while.

Yep, the movable quick reply is gone. There were some bugs that it was throwing, and rather than keeping it, I decided it was just easier to get rid of it.

Aw, that's a shame. It was so handy, too.

Ah well.

There are a few usergroups showing up multiple times in the list, ie Songwriters Express, Roleplayers Unite, Photography Group. Seems to be newer groups only.

I am using Mozilla Firefox, but it happens when I'm on IE also. Whenever I go to a topic that is locked, a little box pops up and says, "Text Not Found." And... well... all of the text is there. So, it's not really a bug, but more of an annoyance?

Via ->> With the groups, can you send them to me via PM? It's not really a bug; it just has to do with mods clicking the "confirm" button more than once when approving a group.

The text box thing ->> I thought I fixed it, but I guess not. Sythe, what template are you using? If it's default, then it has a blue background.

I'm using the default template, and I get the same problem. Although it depends when you fix this. The last one I got had to be yesterday evening.

I have default, cause it's blue and stuff. I'll go and visit a locked topic and see if I get it again.

Okay, sorry for double posting, but I got the same box come up. Just wanted to tell you.

I was editing one of my stories and when I hit submit it said, "You received one more review point!" or something. But I was just editing my story... and as far as I can tell my review count did go up one.
