Please report any bugs you might see with the new site in this thread.  I would like to reserve this thread for technical, bug type issues not preferences or opinions on the colors or "look".

Thank you

Stacey

My CSS stylesheet is no longer working. All it does is increase the width to full screen, but now I have a narrow page.

Those stylesheets are done by the user so you probably need to go post in the CSS stylesheet forum for helping on creating one that you like for the new site. 

Thanks

Stacey

I got this message

MySQL error: Deadlock found when trying to get lock; try restarting transaction, occured in query: "UPDATE adman_ad SET impression_served = impression_served + 1 WHERE ad_id = 46100;".

when browsing the Poser forum. It appeared at the bottom of the forum , just above the blue area at the bottom.

Thanks Mark

I hope the attachment works. I received it in email from Rendo user wirepaladin. he is using Safari on some version of Mac OS X, I'm not sure which exact versions.

he said he cannot get to anything at the site including site mail.

thanks.

I'm afraid that telling me to go to the CSS forum ,which has been dead for years, is not a very good response to my report that CSS stylesheets are no longer working. This is a bug in the new set-up.

It's only been dead, because there was nothing to work on. Now that there is something to work on, there will be posts (starting with the forum stylesheet).

Thanks, some good news.

The stylesheet option is there for you to use if you prefer by making your own CSS stylesheet with your own preferences outside of the normal functioning layout of the site. Changes we make to the actual layout of the site can mess up your custom made css that you made. Due to the new site layout you will have to go create a new css with what you prefer as we cannot possibly account for all the different css stylesheets that each indivdual user might have written and make them backwards compatible unfortunately.

Yes just as users helped each other in the past if they preferred to use a custom CSS, the same will hold true with this site change

Thanks nrrudock

Can you find out if they are using an older version of Safari and also the Mac OS version? We have several macs in the office and all is well on Safari here so if you can find out that we can go from there.

Thanks

But it would be nice if the style information was full contained in the stylesheet rather than also scattered in the HTML, and if some CSS keywords weren't disabled by mangling certain strings, which because of the way it's being done causes other problems.

It would also be useful if you could read the standard stylesheet which is displayed in pale grey on a pale grey background.

The drop down boxes are too long and go off of the page.<<<!!!!!!!

The font size in the posting boxes is tiny and unreadable.<<<!!!

It looks cheap (*not that that is a bug) and it does not have a polished look anymore.<!

IMHO, what a waste.

Oh and everything is WAY TOO LARGE! And that looks choppy.

~A~

The font is the same size Ariana.  You can change this in the editor that you type in just like you could before.

The drop down boxes go off the page? I'm not sure what you mean? If there is lots of links that pertain to a certain Top Nav menu tab and its long you scrolling shows you..is that what you mean?

Stacey,

I do not want to have to change the size every time I post. I did not have to do so before. And this whole thing is giving me a massive headache.

The drop down boxes that have New items, or Gallery choices, or other "features. It is a long black box that contains these items. In order to view it entire you have to scroll down from the side bar and HOPE that it fits into your screen.

I use FF.

Seriously, it looks very cheap and first "site" built looking. Everything is too large and crowded. I honestly remember having a flash (*and it alternated slowly, not like some of the new banners that are up) banner pulled because it bothered someone who had epilepsy. Well I am diabetic and this makes me ill to my stomache.  The site used to look classy.

~A~

BTW, I won't be coming back today, a few minutes is all I can stand of this.

Hi Stacey!

After I showed you the screenshot....  I went to my gallery later to see if anything had been done.  I had my gallery options fixed to see all images at full screen a long time ago.  Now it is not even like the screenshot I showed you.  They fixed it so it looks smaller and you are still forced to click on the image to see it full size.  In other words, they over rode my gallery options to see the image full size.

Do you know what I mean? lol  It sounds so complicated, but it's not really.

Yeah we had removed the options to view full size. You have to click the zoom now if that is how you want to see it. We did this about 3 or 4 weeks ago I think???

Well, they must have forgotten to change mine, because it was working when I made that screenshot for you today. lol  Dingbats.

Well the thing is that you had to go into your gallery options page and from that point on it would be this way. He's running a script to convert all to this way, just hadn't been one yet so I was manually doing it for a minute:(

I cannot respond to a thread in the Bryce forum.  I get the following message.

We Encountered An Error

We're sorry, but we had a problem processing your request. The error or errors encountered were:

You must enter a body for your message.

Please correct these errors and try your request again.

OIC, I think.  No big deal.  It is more work though when cruising through all your favorite artist's images.  I like to see them fullsize.  It's just not the same when they are too small.  It will help with some of my Poser artists though.  They make huge images.

Dan were you typing in this box here cause I just tried it and it worked fine.  What were you trying to post in the forum?  If it's a new thread and you put something in the subject line it sounds like you didn't put anything in this box (the body of the post)

It was this thread.

http://www.renderosity.com/mod/forumpro/showthread.php?thread_id=2795910&page=2#message_3815181

And I entered two sentences in the body twice, but it seems to be working now.

Drop down menus are not shortened up and do not go off the page

Ariana, can you give me a screen shot to show me what you are talking about with the tiny unreadable font as we have it set to the same as it was on the old site so I want to see what you are seeing.

Thanks:)

okay Dan let me know if this happens again.

Thanks

Two comments:

1. END THE HIJACKING! You are deleting links back to previously viewed pages. Once I go into RR I can no longer go back further than the RR page, which is a universally condemned practice. IT WILL MAKE ME STOP POSTING TO THIS SITE, AND POSSIBLY TAKE MY FRIENDS WITH ME. This is not just happening on my computer, so don't tell me it is not being deliberately done.

2. The new page layout is bad in my opinion; change for the sake of change. Bad colors too. I need to find things again like I have just started on this site, which makes me think that perhaps that is what I should do, but with a different site.

Hi Stacey

I notice a little thing in the Gallery, where the page numbers are, there is no maker anymore to what page you are on. Kind of makes it hard when your going though the pages not knowing what page you are on when you want to go to the next page.

Kim

whaleman , can you try it again because its not happening for me. If I start on site A and select my bookmark to rendo forums , I get straight there and logged on. The back button takes me back to site A no problems.  

Wont get into the style and colors of the new site cause thats a matter of opinion and it reminds me of the circus :)

Hi Kim,

Whatever page you are on will be grey instead white and it won't be a link just like it was in the old site so you know what page you are on.  Is that what you are referring to?  Let me know if not so I can get more details and see what we can do:)

Ariana,

They are working on the font size when typing in the box right now so hang tight:)

Okay I notice it now that you mention it, but barely. Maybe it's just the change in the color scheme threw me. I'm not complaining about the color, it is my favorite color. :)

Took a little getting used to, but I'm getting adjusted to it.

"When faced with change, one must evolve or die off." ;)

Thanks!

I no longer feel ro cares because if you say "wait and see" or "you'll get used to it" there is little hope of improvement.

This isn't just disliking change. This is on par with the horrid look of 3DC! And why pray tell do you need the header of these forums to take up half a page with double spacing?

Ariana

Quote - ... the header of these forums to take up half a page with double spacing?

Due to the user stylesheet being deliberately restricted, the header size problem is only really fixable with a GreaseMonkey script.

Not a bug, but I have to state that this is an art site and it's supposed to be pretty to look at, and at the same time professional looking.

With this new site change it is neither.

There are so many blue tones that go nicely together and co-ordinate with one another. I'm aghast that someone found the 4 shades of blue that do not compliment each other in any way shape or form.  The blue tones do not go together at all.  They clash horridly.

And to keep the old grey tones for the forum list? What was that about?  It doesn't go with any of the blue tones and looks like that part of the site was just abandoned.

Renderosity, you could have done much better. Much much better.

Footguns only come with one setting

With the changes made to the fora, the hyper text links have lost there underlining. This makes things very confusing, as it is hard to tell what is a link and what is not.

You got a Greasmonkey script to fix it?

Sitemail links aren't underlined and you can't see that they are links unless you hover over them.

I kinda like the color schme but I see a couple of blues and some greenish shades.

its only July so no talk of footguns please.  thats scheduled in September.

No, it still happens every time I get into the site and upload or comment.  Then you can no longer navigate back to your home page. Also it is NOT happening with any other sites that I visit.

I hope this isn't "as designed", but it seems that the Live Chat box does not appear on the front page if no one is in the chat. The only way I could enter the chat was by opening up the article that talks about the chat room.

Suffice to say, when that article goes away from the front page, there would be no other way to access the chat unless someone is in. It's hard to get people into using a feature if accessing it is going to be difficult.

.... unless you're hiding the link somewhere. I didn't see it at the very bottom of the main page.

Always worth the opportunity to take a practice shot.

Yes. See screenshot in linked post.

Is anyone having problems with the search engine not bringing up many results? Or no results?

The black background for at least the gallery drop down menu is transluscent rather than opaque, allowing print from the preceding page to show thru. Disconcerting at best. I have been around since the very early days, about 3 name changes ago, and this is the worst ever.

i dont know about CSS sheets etc etc etc..

but how do i change these  ugly blue shades colors...

Damn this is painfull on the eyes..

Is there a option to change these freaking bad choice colors ?

these colors are a BUG .. nobody picks them freely ...

Yes, I searched "Dark Blossom" and it came up no results. I just bought it and could not remember if it was A4 or V4.

Finally had to go search my account for it.

Ariana

Oh additional possible bug. The site is really slow to load the pages.
