And my point was that I was trying to ape what I thought was the party line. I don't share it. I notice you as much as anyone here - more, actually, because I like the way you have your own opinions. So there's no need for your feelings to be hurt, as it's not actually true that no one notices you.

But fuck this. I shouldn't have to explain myself.  :finger:

What do you mean btw, MLA?

are you using a phone or an ipod or something?

Maybe it is a Black Rain thing, but every time the 50 oxymorons bit or the other ones that list 50 lines comes up in the News Box it fills my entire screen and I have to scroll down just to get to the site controls.  It makes me :GA:

What browser are you using?

Chrome at work, FF at home

Just changed to Black Rain and updated the page until the 50 oxymorons thing showed up. Yes, it fucked up the page and I'm using FF4. Fucking awful. You are right. :GA:

Not sure how to fix that but I think it should be possible to force the newsbox to fit into a scroll box with predefined dimensions. I'll have a look at the code and see if I can figure it out.

Thanks Odeon.  I appreciate your looking into it.  Very responsive webmaster  :plus:

Hey, I haven't actually fixed it yet.

But I think I know how, now, if Black Rain works like Babylon. I'm hoping the scroll box will magically appear if I force a height on a div tag with the right class attribute.

You can close the News Box area with the button on the right of the page. Just until it gets fixed if you want.

Planning to have a look tonight. I noticed there is a new version of the Black Rain theme on the SMF site so I might try that first.

Thanks again.  I'm not used to Admins actually trying to fix problems instead of ignoring them.  :thumbup:

OK...

Everyone using the Black Rain theme, please refresh your browser. The newsbox should now have a fixed height of 80px and with news items longer than what will fit within that should automatically get a scroll bar. Please let me know if things get weird. I have tested it using FF and a Webkit browser but you never know.

The one that says, " I am an atheist, dyslexic, insomniac...I'm awake wondering if Dog exists."  Is incorrect.
If your wondering then you are agnostic, not atheist.

Yes, 'correction'  is required at times. Don't hold back.  :squiddy:
