It shouldn't be top priority, but its kind of an ugly icon:

[Brad]

It's on the list!

Regarding graphics: they're all going to be replaced eventually. I'm replacing a few every day. Just this morning I swapped in these:











So, don't sweat it. It's just taking some time to get to them all. Remember that we weren't expecting to make this site go live for another month or two at least. The graphics and layout were just starting to come together when we were forced to go from 0 to 60 in no time last week.

Thanks.

Could someone also tell me what it means? That one I posted is next to a link to a poll, but that doesn't make much sense.

It means that there is a new post in a poll. But I agree, the image doesn't make any sense.

[Brad]

For any parties tracking our progress with replacements, I just dropped in these little ones:


- thread with attachment(s)
- sticky thread
- subscribed thread

And I fixed the lock variations to use the same image.

there is a little 'bar graph' icon in the poll results frame itself.
how about trying that one as the 'contains poll' graphic?
maybe the colour scheme doesn't fit... but at least it's not mystery meat iconography

Hey, I just noticed that the "Subscribed Thread" icon, the glider, is not replaced when viewing Currently Active Members. I've flushed the cache, but it's still the old envelope.

Nothing major, you get to it when you get to it.

Ok, I'm not sure if anyone read my last post, but here is a picture of the icon that needs replacement.

[LoCash]

An actual filename of the image would help too.

This is the last little visual bug that I can see. Only reason it bugs me is that it sticks out so much.

[Paul]

bump

[Brad]

Sorry for the delay.

That bugger should be fixed now.

[Paul]

yup, works great.

thanks

from an older post of mine... (in the incorrect thread)

Originally Posted by Paul any chance a better "poll" icon (thats what the tooltip says on mouse-over) could be made? the X doesn't really convey it... Maybe a "?" (check/tic, opt-v) would work better... Also, this could be added to the regular forum display like the sticky flag and new post arrow.

[Brad]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'll make something pretty for that tonight.

[alcimedes]

while you're at it fix the favicon. must have gotten borked in the board upgrades last night.

[Brad]

*curses at LoCash*

favicon.ico is back up now.

[LoCash]

Yeah, so when you download the vBulletin package without images, it still hooks you up with the favicon. Woo. I thought that was really an image, but eh....

[Brad]

Better now?



Better late than never!

thanks brad
I haven't come across it yet* in my general reading of the boards, but the URL has been updated.

Very pretty.

edit:* now that I think about it... this icon is really weird... it only (afaict) shows up on the front page. (right?)
Would it be possible to have it show up in the normal forum view and treat it just like the subscription, sticky, and attachment icons?

edit2: okay... not showing up at all... hmmm... (err, actually now that I think about it, it's probably because the poll is no longer open... but still a bit odd...)

[Paul]

Okay... I can't seem to get the new icon to show up anywhere... (except for the path that I posted...)

I'd hate for Brad's hard work making to go to waste... was a setting borked when the icon was swapped out?

Very nice job.

[Luca]

Um yeah, like Paul, I never see it. Polls only show up as "Poll: (Title of thread)" with no icon. Why no icon?

[Brad]

It shows up when you have recently voted on a poll. I'm not sure about other instances.

[Ryan]

Even though I can't see it all the time, thanks!
