Forum Testers Test My Changes!!

[Pete]

Ok guys, help me help you by making this a better little home on the web.

Folks complain over having to scroll past pages of quotes.   I've tried to fix that.

Scroll ALLLLLL the down and in the bottom right corner of any screen, you'll see a way to change themes.   

Kindly swap over to the TWILIGHT THEME and then just browse the forums and see if anything seems overly broken with it.  It was the least used theme, so one I used for testing my changes on.

Here is what one image of a long ass quote looks like, as they're currently rendered.
 



And here is the image of how these quotes would look with the changes, provided they work on all broswers and don't break anything:





If you look, that's a much smaller quote, but there's an "SHOW MORE" link which you can link to expand the collapsed quote if you really need to see what the heck the person was referring to.

It quotes it.  It saves the original quote.  It's still referenceable.  

But it defaults to being collapsed so folks don't have to scroll past a whole page of quote just for somebody to give a smiley face or "Good job" or whatever

Test the TWILIGHT THEME, tell me how it behaves on your system and browser, and if all works as advertised, I'll push the change into everything else soon(tm).   

Maybe quotes won't be the issue for folks that they've been in the past, with a little fix like this for the forums. 

And here's an easy to find long ass quote for testing purposes, so you can see how it behaves in your current theme, and how it will look after the change goes into other themes besides just TWILIGHT.

For now, swap to TWILIGHT THEME for testing, and let me know how it does and what OS/browser you be on, and if anything else seems goofy from it.

Don't you just hate ASCII-Holes that quote entire posts when it's completely unnecessary?

Actually, I don't, but this was just too much damn fun to pass up. So now I'll switch to the Twilight Zone and see if this crappy thread cleans up nicely or not.
