Old Layout

Could be a security suite you have installed, a firewall or even an anti-virus. All I can tell you is that it's working right on my end, and lots of other people's as this is the first I've heard of it in months.

My host file(that pain-in-the-butt-to-get/edit-but-can-block-urls file) on my computer blocks any ads in any & every form(including but not limited to: image, flash, javascript). I also have Norton 360, which includes among other things, a firewall, and on top of those, I have another program that blocks urls...including but not limited to ads. If the code/script that does the resolution resizing thing is related to the ads, the lack of ads could have broken it, thus it doesn't run.

>>>EDIT 3: Look at this, it works on the oblivion site(changes to old layout unless I zoom out to 75%), but not the fallout site. ...which changes things. None of my firewalls/ad blockers/url blockers are causing this(disabling them doesn't help) and it only effects 1 site. :/ <<<

 

I'll try disabling the ad block thingies(*googles how to access the host file*) and see what happens. (As you can tell, I really dislike ads...you could not get an ad to show on my computer no matter how hard you tried right now...)

 

EDIT: This is what worked/didn't worked:

 

disabling adblock - fail

disabling host file adblock - fail

disabling Norton 360 firewall- fail

disabling other program - n/a(not open at the moment)

 

However, if I set my zoom to 75%, it shows correctly, which would make the resolution 1600 x 1000. :/ That solution works for now.

 

EDIT 2: Forcing the resolution through a userstyle works. I have yet to perfect it completely, but it's good enough for now. Could you, perhaps, make a userstyle that does the same thing as the code/script that my computer refuses to run. I have the body width set to 1280 which semi-fixes it and I deleted the part of the userstyle I edited that edited the gallery box(small box that displays uploaded images of a mod) to fix the problem that occured after the 1st edit. Does this match what it should look like:

homepage(full screen)(50% zoom) - here

homepage(full screen)(75% zoom) - here

homepage(full screen)(100% zoom)(part 1) - here

homepage(full screen)(100% zoom)(part 2) - here

example file(full screen)(100% zoom) - here

I have the exact same problem as redwes. The comments simply can not fit well into the area reserved for them which results the post displaying below the poster information instead on the right side of it. This wastes a lot of space and looks like crap. My max width for the screen seems to be 1280 so I have no way to increase the resolution width. I really don't understan why the images, endorsements and options needed to be moved to the middle of the page on file pages. They were much better at the top. Now it just feels extra crammed when everything doesn't even fit in as it's suppose to :pinch:

 

Ps. disabled all Firefox plugins and it didn't help. Same problem with IE. I think whoever desings these things for the site dropped the ball with this one. Most people are still using resolutions with 1280 or less width.

The new layout is a lot less complex and more appealing but I preferred the previous one as we were used to it. I'm sure that in time we will grow to be friendly with this new look.

 

I think it's more complex and less appealing :) I liked that the images, endorsements etc. stuff was at the top

I just wonder if the issues with will be fixed or are we stuck with it. Curretly there is too much stuff in width direction to fit in as it should on 1280x1024 resolution (and lower resolution).

 

From the CSS I counted this width for the content in comments pages:

 

Comment area padding + poster info + post + image box + "site" section + "latest news" section + padding

 

20 + 200 + 500 + 180 + 185 + 200 + 20 = 1305px and this doesn't even include all margins and paddings which increase the width need even more.

 

So, is the current layout really designed for some specific resolution which is more than 1280x1024px ?
