Site teardown and buildup

Any chance we can get the AOTY button to say AOTY/DOTY 2013, a DOTY top ten and recent catches bar thingy and an up to date "MLPA" account and donation button?

Just ideas...

 

Sincerely,

Jim

Is the 2013 really necessary?  You know what year it is, right?   

Yeah, we'll get the DOTY top 10 and recent catches up.

I haven't had a donation on the MLPA in months.  If you guys are going to use it for something, I'll put it back up.

I think I know what you might be saying as I saw something similar as I was developing this.  But I thought I fixed it.  Well, at least I don't see it anymore.  Can you take a screen shot and post?  Also, clear your browser cache in case a residual file is getting called from there.

Great work Allen ! I like the layout and the space between post's does help my eyes follow the discussion better. You r a pro !

That was Quick! Didn't even notice the down time. Have to train the left eye now to focus to the right side of the screen

It doesn't take long to retrain.  I switched over NWKA and Aquahunters a few weeks back, and when I came to NCKA I was already trained to look to the right and couldn't find anything here at NCKA.  Hah!

WoW Allen!
This is much better now. 

The ad at top or bottom (depends on where I'm at on the website) no longer needing a scroll bar and the posting person's information above instead of along side their post makes for a wider reading area. 

I like it!! 

For me, the button I use most often is the "show unread".  It would make it easier if there was a tab like the "mark all messages as read" on the top of the body of new posts page.  This is more because I use my iPhone a lot and now the "show unread" is to the right of the body and is a tougher target to hit (being sandwiched) and with the reduction of body width I am having to manually widen it forcing the user avatar and info off the screen.

Looking good.

What I mentioned has been fixed and I second the unread button mentioned... looks great as is though. My android tablet works better with the new layout Archos 101 tablet...

I didn't do anything to fix it, so I suspect it was a caching issue.

If I move the right column to the left side, does it fix your issues?  I mainly had it on the right, since it could go off the screen when zooming in the the posts to account for the limited viewing.  But with the inline post headers giving more post space, that issue is less of an problem.

Note that I don't want to put a lot of time into modifications for mobile devices at this moment, as I'm likely to do a custom mobile theme in the next couple months.  I'm really starting to not like tapatalk ... lots of issues with it behind the scenes and I have almost zero control over it.  If we had a better mobile display options, I'd boot tapatalk in a heartbeat.
