Kind of.

It's cleaner and as responsive as I can make it without using AJAX and jQuery to rebuild each page and stray far from the initial design. Possible sure, but not very feasible, the operations are too expensive for mobile devices and it would drastically increase page load times.

There are a few elements that aren't displaying in the top bar because the screenshot was taken with a locally saved page. A quick list of features already implemented:

  • New stylesheet built from scratch. Uses better methods for positioning elements and avoids current display issues.

  • Responsive-ish design with element positions and sizes changing dynamically depending on device and screen width.

  • Sidebar removed
    • Featured threads removed completely

    • Poll voting and statistics moved

  • Notifications can be organized by content type (thread, message, etc.) or user.

  • Notification drop down showing the 5 latest notifications you've received.

  • Notification and message pages are loaded into an overlay so you don't have to switch from your current page to view them.

  • Notifications are actively checked every minute, no more having to refresh the page to check for new ones.

  • A notification that you have a new notification (yo dawg) displays at the bottom right of the page for a few seconds.

  • User-definable amount of manga and doujinshi pages to cache ahead of the current one.

  • Doujinshi and manga pages are now loaded using AJAX methods to provide a better a better viewing experience on mobile devices.

  • Hovering over or tapping (mobile) preview images in content rows displays a larger version

  • Dicks in and around your mouth.

  • Image slider on the front page for featured shit. (Captions and images are loaded from an external web server maintained by myself and maybe a few other people.)

  • Open Sans instead of Arial. Arial used as a fall-back.

  • Posts in threads can now be added to a quote cue (works across multiple pages). Each quote is added to the reply text field when you decide to reply. Only sends a notification to the user owning the first quote in the cue.

  • Modified CKEditor (WYSIWYG) replaces current editor for thread posts.


There's more I want to implement but depending on how lazy I feel I might have the first version released in a few days. Could be a couple of weeks though, maybe a few months, hue hue.

I happen to like the current designs

I won't be on Skype for another couple of weeks, I'm on vacation after the China trip in the mountains of B.C., bandwidth is stupid expensive on a satellite connection.

Why not just use markdown, then convert that to bbcode?

Also, is that bootstrap? I totally dig me some bootstrap.

I'm not sure why, but the new buttons don't render right in my browser :

To be honest the editor is still up in the air, though that's an excellent idea and I may very well use markdown instead.

Nah, it's all my own work for now. I don't really want to go out of my way to add all the classes required for bootstrap, though I might consider it in the future.

Ask Jacob about the new buttons, I'm sure he'll get back to you once he's done playing Team Fortress 2.

Eh, bootstrap's only really useful if you're a lazy bum like I am and can't be arsed to write portable/responsive CSS (but still want portable/responsive CSS). And boy am I a lazy bum.

Also... wait, are you just replacing the normal stylesheets? For some reason I thought you were parsing the HTML and re-formatting it. If the former you should totally throw that up on github so I can install it in my browser :3

AND JACOB USE A FLEXBOX IT'S 2014 (also I just learned about these yesterday and they seem hip and cool and stuff).

Oh man, it's like every couple of years I have to rewrite all the front end because browsers finally caught up to the last iteration of advancements. I was gonna reply with a "we can't do flex because of IE support", but after looking at our Internet Explorer users less than 1% use something lower than IE10... so I have no excuses...

Oh wow I noticed the buttons got bigger but I totally missed the deletion of games. Guess that says something.

Eh, I look into the display issue on my end; all the widths are off because I have neither Arial nor Helvetica installed, and the system font is a bit wider than both of those.

I'm pretty sure that I'm in the 0.0001% here, lol.
