šŸ”ˆ Site announcement: Things that we think you should know

BTW I’ve changed the colours of my tags so that they match the shirt, waistcoat and cravat combination I’m currently rocking.

@pap 's choice of garish colours is a bit ā€œleather jacket smelling of patchouli oilā€ for my liking.

ffs. You’ll all be off to retro gaming meet ups next.

@cunts.

:lou_sunglasses: @coxford_lou has her icons back. Might need to pull a big page refresh.

We’ve also got a full screen mode which might be handy for folk on mobile devices.

Also, Lou’s icons have disappeared!

I loved looking at Lou’s cock!

Another example of Sotonians’ ingrained sexism.

I’ll get those back :slight_smile:

When you do, could you ditch the shit wink, and just keep the newer version of it…

This is the shit one: :lou_wink:

This was the improved one: :lou_wink_2:

Thanks!

So how do you know if someone has used your name?

Well, I found your name scratched into the back of the door to trap 2 in the gents at the South Western, @coxford_lou .

But I had no way of notifying you.

Perhaps you put it there yourself?

I guess that @pap will put something on the member’s homepage, and perhaps, optionally, fire off an email alert?

Always wondered why there were two winks Lou I never noticed they were different until now … mind you my eyesight is well past its prime unlike the rest of my youthful self :wink:

Had to use a smiley wink Lou, yours have vanished !!

EDIT. They’re back :lou_wink_2:

From an aesthetic point of view it isn’t very easy on the eye, is it @pap and @saintbletch ?

Though it might be harsh to say it makes each page look as pretty as Vanessa Feltz in a skimpy dress.

If it is a building block for the future then so be it.

In @pap we trust…

Heh, yeah it was a tweak on the original - never did look quite right! Might you, not as bad as that yellow smiley thing :lou_lol:

Oh OK, I just wasn’t sure if I was doing something wrong… @saintbletch

I’m sure in the fullness of time, pap will allow you change the appearance.

If you’re a geek like me, you can already do this. See this, and no Vanessa Feltz to be seen…

Fuck…stop doing that pap…I was reading the ā€œwho’s getting rat arsedā€ thread when my eyes went funny and the type went BOLD.

I’m not entirely sold on the styles myself, @rallyboy . However, even second-rate web developers like myself make that sort of stuff pretty easy to change.

I’m not sure that @pap is licenced to make decisions on the site aesthetic.

What we need is someone who is good at graphics and colours and fonts and smiley penis heads to come up with a font and colour scheme.

Hmmm.

Anyone?

I’ve bolded the text up a bit to make us a bit more distinctive. This is the font that @fatso liked earlier. I’ve sussed out how to make it play nice with bold and italic now.

Can you arrange to have all Bazza’s text in Yellow on the white background. :smile:

What a lovey font…as Kevin McCloud said during a recent chapel conversion on Grand Designs.

Keep it clean and simple…fonts were fine how they were! If you take the border off the name thing and just make the font a different colour it won’t be quite so dominant… You just want it as readable as possible.

Not sure about this new font, Pap, I quite like the more simple approach you had before…
