first off this isnt a forum comment. Personally I like the forums, I contribute here when I never bothered to look at the forums over at Cinescape (where I was a regular at posting my comments under the articles)

the "comments" html FORMS box, my suggestion would be to extend its length to that of the width of the table instead of (what is it currently?) two inches.

it just seems needlessly compacted and short when it has the full length of the html table. The new comments FORM really DOESNT need to be a two inch box.

anyway I hope I get to see it stretched out...seems it would be an easy fix.

I like the idea if you also add to the suggestion that we should have our comments in "paragraph" form with splits between said paragraphs. It looks too jumbled.

I'd send this to info@mania.com , Mckracken. :D

ok heres a suggestion for THESE forums.

the FONTS and SIZES (oddly enough as I type this, they dont seem to be accessable in this thread, are they disabled here?)edit my post to see all the extra goodie options!] unleash an extremly LONG torrent of what appears to be "broken" HTML source code, upon scrolling all the way down past the "crap HTML source code" you'll indeed find about 22 different fonts... and the SIZES list doesnt have a slider bar, so you manually have to go to the bottom of the page (past all the bad code) and youll find the 7 font sizes all listed by number, but its estremely long way to the bottom.


LOL--->>>:chewiedance: now THAT really IS funny.

Yes they are disabled. This has been an extreme pet peeve with me from the people who put in the Source code for the new header and footer. When they did it and changed our CSS style for our boards, they locked up fonts and the color codes for our Forum "links".

By changing it here, we can accidentally change it all over the Mania site...which some people might not appreciate. :)

and oops speaking of being disabled... they work now!! :)

well THATS a little annoying.

DJ I think I understand what you're talking about, when you make changes to the CSS header/footer codes, it suddenly freaks out the entire site... i get it.

I thought it was something I could do... LOL!
