Re: Of new themes, and lurking.
You totally took me out of context, forboding. I didn't say mods content shouldn't be featured on the front page. I didn't say that mods shouldn't benefit from their work being on the frontpage (hence the link suggestion). I did however, say that mods have no place sticking big logos on the frontpage which compete with the visual hierarchy of the website.
Again, no desire to get into a big bawwfest, as has been made clear, we don't really have a heap of say in all this (which is for the best), I just don't appreciate having my words twisted to mean something I did not intend.

In other words, that's what you said. I already said I don't agree with you, but whatever, I'm sure you'll get your way so there's no point in your getting pissy.

Re: Of new themes, and lurking.
Oddly, I wasn't pissy about the point being made. I was pissy because of the fact that I couldn't figure out whether or not I should care in the first place. 

Re: Of new themes, and lurking.
then don't care.
I do not agree with you stance and do support warlord's stance. However, the argument has already happened and there is NO POINT in reliving it. I'll not get into views or counter views but I felt a fairly reasonable compromise was met and argh did so with a smaller logo which to me felt reasonable enough even though I disagree. Why have the argument again? There is no point, you said your sentiments as did, argh, myself and warlord Z.
I don't care that my opinion didn't win and yours didn't either, what is the point bearing any frustration or resentment over it?

Re: Of new themes, and lurking.
Well because the agreement was 18 pt font, yet here WZ is trying to impost 12 pt on everyone even though an agreement was already reached. It's annoying and damn near infuriating. These people think that they can just change the rules any time that is pleases them.

Re: Of new themes, and lurking.
Am I crazy or didn't you argue in favor of 12 point font on your other Spring news website? (Can I take this to mean your site now has a larger font?)Forboding Angel wrote:Well because the agreement was 18 pt font, yet here WZ is trying to impost 12 pt on everyone even though an agreement was already reached.

Merely stating an opinion he wasn't imposing anything except that:Warlord Zsinj wrote:Really don't want to get involved in another bawl fest, just wanted to note that I think frontpage images should only be allowed to have their text at 12 point, using the same font that is used on the site.
Warlord Zsinj wrote: Under no circumstances should the mod logo be competing as part of the visual hierarchy of the main site
so you take exception to the fact that he thinks 12pt would be better and that the logo should never take attention away from the fact that it is the spring frontpage?Warlord Zsinj wrote:I did however, say that mods have no place sticking big logos on the frontpage which compete with the visual hierarchy of the website.
Re: Of new themes, and lurking.
You guys are seriously having a 2 page discussion over a text size on a banner?

Re: Of new themes, and lurking.
What? Springinfo has always used the same font size (12 pt if I'm not mistaken) and some people were complaining that that was too small.el_matarife wrote:Am I crazy or didn't you argue in favor of 12 point font on your other Spring news website?

We aren't talking about website text here, we are talking about frontpage banners.
We all agreed upon this: But now WZ wants to change the agreement to this: @hoi, the other thread was longer.
Re: Of new themes, and lurking.
i really like the design, good job
Re: Of new themes, and lurking.
Ooh yeah, I remember.
@WZ why change? It's ok like this, no need to change.

Re: Of new themes, and lurking.
To be honest I don't think the banners should use text at all.
Save that for the frontpage image.
Won't get into a flame war over it though, that is my opinion and I shall say no more.

These are examples of the frontpage images if we ever get hte access to post in the site content forum.Crayfish wrote:To be honest I don't think the banners should use text at all.

Wat in the hell are you talking about? The banner image is the banner across the top that says "Spring Engine".
