Septagon / Re: Ads are starting to get a bit annoying again,
« on: October 02, 2016, 01:55:08 PM »
If they're getting to be annoying for you, I would be completely fine with you turning on adblock for a few weeks. Once we upgrade to Sep7agon 3.0, I will give users the option to donate to remove ads (probably like $3 to $7 a month).

We have one. It's called the dumpster and it's where posts go to die.

For real. You don't have permission to see it, but the banner is still visible: http://sep7agon.net/dumpster/

Yeah. I remember cheat saying it has like a 1/1000 chance of showing or something.
I think it's like 1 in 7777.

Nope. Not that I am aware of. I would be extremely thankful if you were to spread the word, though.

Just FYI: If you win, you will need to give me the PSD or AI source. I'll likely need to tweak them.

Also, plain white text isn't a rule; the text just needs to be clean and readable.

I can assure I have no interest in seeing Isara's boobs (that he doesn't have). If he/she can't take a little banter he should fuck off. And he did. Problem solved.

He didn't do shit for the site and was a boring member with shitty opinions.
Do we know what he did or didn't contribute?
You know how you can't access PMs or any hover menus on mobile? Yeah that.

I can access them just fine. Git gud scrub
I can too (my phone has a stylus with a hover function) but most people can't. Hover menus on mobile are among some of the dumbest design decisions you can make.

It's not even a mobile site. It's just the regular site in a smaller window - you get the same stuff if you go in a small window on a computer.
The header switches to a mobile layout which is what I'm talking about.

Yeah but it's not a 'proper' mobile site.

Regardless it's pretty awful.
SMF uses the old table rendering method, which really, really sucks for responsive design. That said, it's definitely a 'proper' mobile site in the sense that it has viewport meta restrictions and media queries for resizing and rearranging content.

What it is not is "mobile first" which is not ever going to happen with SMF. Once we eventually switch to WordPress / bbPress, it'll be a mobile first website.
How about we never use wordpress ever.
Why?

I am super familiar with developing with WP and bbPress is pretty fucking rad. It's more stable than SMF and allows waaaaay more control right out of the gate. If you are imagining a vanilla, horrible looking page with a "blogroll" link column to the right, that's not what I am talking about.

I'm saying we switch the engine to WP, keep this look (maybe make it a little more flat), and use WPs superior article/blog system to dominate the internet.

The old logo was better.
Well then (that was my design).
I had a hard time getting used to the new one for a while because I always liked the old one more. Yours felt more uniform and I never liked the symbol being flipped upside down.

The way it is now, I'll always see it as upside down.
Isara and I talked about the jaggedness of the new logo a bit and I do sort of kind of agree with you. The lowercase letters just don't align like the uppercase ones did.

I prefer the septagon upside down but it wouldn't look good with the old font.

Isara largest contribution was the header/navigation at the top and also the new css color scheme.

Also the logo. That was mostly Isara.

There might have been a few games as well, but I don't know if those are still alive.

Septagon / Re: New Banners Proposition
« on: September 20, 2016, 08:39:29 PM »
we vote for banners like twice every year and then they don't get changed any way so
That's because they're all kind of lame. Come up with good designs and they will get added.

I wouldn't exactly call what we have now "good"
I'd call them above average and they also kind of go with the theme.

FYI: if you are wanting to make banners and submit them, please use Century Gothic, Open Sans, Raleway, etc. Serif and bubbly fonts don't fit.

Better to secure a new job before you quit the old one.
I applied to an arena where they have events like concerts and stuff but no luck with them.

I do however have sights on a job that my friend told me about. I think I can land that one.
I think he means actually get the job before quitting your old one. I mean...people apply at the office I work at all the time and like 95% of them don't get hired.

O shit I missed you.

Describe ender
13 yearish old kid who I am not really familiar with. Likes to like other people's posts when asked to and says "oh" a lot.

Basically a complete degenerate.

Hey now that isn't nice. Ender may have told me to shut the fuck up a lot but I would never say that.

Besides, I can name you a lot of people that I've known online and irl that are very deserving of the word degenerate.

Online outside of this website mind you...

Everyone here is a clown anyway.
It's kind of creepy when you white-knight a 5 year old...

Same (on both of my screens).

You might like this too.

http://sep7agon.net/the-flood/introducing-sep7agon-bioshock-rapture-theme/
Installed it. It needs work but it's a good start.

Oh, yeah I suck at programming. If you have any suggestions, please PM me on what to do. Maybe even give me an example in code? I'm definitely no programmer.
Change the buttons to match? Maybe the icons in the toolbar? The logo? Rapture from the game has a very...rusted appearance and it's also during the late 40's / early 50's (I think) but just look at some of the logos and structure designs in the background image and base your theme around that. Changing the BG and making shit transparent is kind of...basic.

Well, I'm a total noob at all of this still. This was based off of Sol's script anyway. But wait, how would I change the buttons to match the theme? Don't I need closed source code for that?

If you want to take this theme and make it better Cheat, I would love for you to do that. Because I have no sense of direction with this scripting stuff. I'm not formally educated in it like you are. I'm more of a visual learner than a math guy.
The icons are image backgrounds and can be overridden with css. Just upload different images to imgur and change them out. Same with the logo.

The forum buttons are all CSS colors / borders and can easily be modified.
