Today I have been having problems with the way the forum is displaying.  Earlier today I had trouble with the alignment of the Renderosity banner.  I thought it was a glitch or low computer memory (I had done virus and malware scans and went to the chat room without having rebooted).  I rebooted and things seemed to revert to normal.

Now I come here and the forum layout is all messed up.  I thought it was a problem on my end, so I went and removed all adblock and RIP filters from Firefox, deleted my cookies for Renderosity and rebooted.  My efforts did nothing to fix the wonky layout.

I checked other site links and the problem seems to be isolated to the forums only.

Here is a screen capture of what I'm seeing. Normally there is no huge wide grey space between the forums and the side bar.

able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.

The forums display correctly in Internet Explorer 7. So this problem seems to be with Firefox. It was working fine until today. I've always used Firefox here.

 

I'm out of ideas.  Here is all that I tried:

 

1. CTRL F5

2. Log out and delete all cookies for Renderosity and disable adblock and RIP (Firefox addons)

3. Reboot

4. Log back in - no change

 

5. Log out and delete all cookies for Renderosity

6. Reinstall Firefox (newest version from their website)

7. Reboot

8. Log back in - no change

 

9. Log out and delete all cookies for Renderosity

10. Unintalled Malwarebytes trial

11. Reboot

12. Log back in

 

13. Log out and delete all cookies for Renderosity

14. Remove Adblock Plus and Rest In Peace and Nuke Anything addons

15.  Reopen Firefox and log back in - no change

 

I've also tried reinstalling Firefox 3 times. But not a clean install. 

If someone can tell me how to save my bookmarks I'll completely remove Firefox and try a clean install.  I reinstalled Firefox a couple weeks back and didn't save the right bookmar, seems there are so many in the applications folder and I picked the wrong one.

Any other suggestions?

Ok, even a fresh firefox install didn't work!!!

I uninstalled, rebooted, redownloaded the file, installed, rebooted.

I typed the address into the address bar.

 

I don't know what else to try :(

Here are some scree captures that show the forum from the top and bottom.

 

Top

The forum list used to be centred with it being next to the menus on the right.

I don't have any adblock filters in place, yet I can't see the banners.  The link buttons at the top of the forum are in their appropriate place.

Here is what it is supposed to look like.  And like I said, it's only in Firefox and only with anything related to the forums.

Quote - ... and the forum layout is all messed up.

I'm getting the same in FF. Something about the structure of the HTML has changed and I haven't figured out which of the nested tables is the culprit.
Whatever it is, is forcing the post content to wrap rather than expand to fill the space available.

I'm having the same problem this morning and I sure don't like the looks of it.

Oh!  Thank goodness it isn't just me!!!!

No, it's just not you. Something in Firefox doesn't like what Rosity did to the forums and I have no idea what it was, but I sure wish they would fix it. Looks finein IE but I ain't going back to IE just for Rosity.

Same here.

I've had the similar problem with this gallery image.  The stuff that is supposed to be on the side is covering up half the image.

Do y'all all have CSS in your forum options and/or gallery options?

Yes. 

Can someone who isn't having problems with Firefox displaying the forums wonkily, please post their CSS settings.

If you have widescreen display, that would be better.

Stacey, I have widescreen. 

Back when the forums first changed to CSS, and there was a CSS forum, many of us with widescreens were using CSS scripts so that everything displayed as widescreen instead of having the forums squished into the middle.

I know I posted what the forums should look like for me based on the tutorial page look, but actually that is incorrect.  It should actually look more like the first image I posted, only the forum stretched all the way to the right next to the side bar.  So my forum display went from the far left to the far right side of my screen without all of that border on both sides.

able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.

heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi

I don't think I have CSS options in my gallery options.

 

BTW, this image is also giving me problems.

Ok the problem for you Winter was your gallery options had the tick box set to Display images resized or full-size according to artist preference so I unchecked that and checked the box that said   Display images resized to fit my browser window regardless of artist preference it fixed the issue for you.  These options may have to be changed or removed from the gallery page so for now I just changed them for you. You can still click the zoom in if you want to see the image in it's intended size

 

There are some new and exciting things on the horizon so please bear with us while we get there:)

Anyone come up with a solution yet? I sure haven't.

Here is the old script we were using but now it no longer works....

 

table { width: 100%; }
.content_cell { background-image: none ; }
#topnavbar td table { width: 120; }
#topnavbar td { background-position: center center; }

Ok now that we have figured out it is a problem with custom CSS, let's continue the discussion in the following thread for Widescreen Display.

I have exactly the same problem!

My browser is FireFox 3.1.7 (FF4 was so unstable that I reverted back to an earlier version) I also get the same problem in Chrome but IE8 is fine.

If it ain't free, I can't afford it.

Chrome working fine for me...Just adding info...Not slammin Browsers.
