Layout changes

Posted by Kim on July 28, 2012, 3:07pm

You may notice the site layout getting just a few pixels wider today. It's subtle, but the site should take slightly better advantage of its real estate, without ever getting so wide that reading long RP posts will cause eye strain from scanning back and forth. It's a delicate balance, and it's constantly being tweaked!

Plus, here's a taste of some of the other things I've worked on just this week:
  • Hunted down a few more very very rare circumstances that would cause logins to not stick for more than a few clicks. I hope I've got the last of them now!
  • Updated some of our javascript libraries
  • Adding pages to character profile with ampersands in the name should no longer cause an error
  • Made character icons go back to their normal size when epic members are previewing their profile colors
  • Added some precautionary CSS directives to dice rolls to keep them all neatly lined up, regardless of the font size or type the page is being viewed with.
  • Reduced lag on the forum main page by roughly 86%
  • A very rare but potentially serious memory overflow issue in notifications was isolated and addressed

The inbox and PM pages received the same updates as the rest of the site, so they may be slightly different. I have no idea how that will translate onto your particular phone. The core functions are all identical.

Did something change in the PMs too? They're displaying differently on my phone. Not a bad thing, just... curious!
