I guess not as many people have mine blocked as I thought. Thats good to know.

Also, Kario doesn't have a layout anymore, so I think it's safe to unblock him if you wish.

I may be making him a teletubbies layout someday when PS7 decides to wrok. That is provided he doesn't get a layout within the next week.

Even though your layout is the type of layout style I wouldn't recommened Keikonium, it's honestly not bad, and easy to read.

And you don't have a scrollbar right? If not, that's another plus.

Oh I have a scrollbar. I really want a different layout code tho.

I'm going to go right out and ask for your layout code Xeolord. If you don't mind giving it to me. Or if legion, or Danielle wouldn't mind.

I've always wondered what ||bass's is from though. That character looks kind of like something from an earlier Final Fantasy, but I'm not sure.

And thanks, yours is good also Danielle.

Huh? Your asking someone to give you their layout code? I usually just steal it. By the way, I stole some code from one of your old layouts for my first layout.

Wow, does anyone make their own layout nowadays? Doesn't seem that hard...the generic layout house text in a table, a cool background, some links, and maybe an image or two.

Well, I'm glad no one has blocked mine. Or at least, mentioned that they have.

Here's my list off blocked layouts:

Bloodstar (Unblock)
Peardian (Unblock)
Keikonium (Unblock)
Fyxe (Unblock)
The Crimson Chin (Unblock)
Jin Dogan (Unblock)

I just had to block Fyxe layout just incase my parents ever saw that layout, they would be pissed. I also had to block The Crimson Chin a.k.a. HyperHacker because I might accidently one day click on the Get Banned link so I blocked it.

Gywall (Unblock)
Ok Impala! (Unblock)
smwedit (Unblock)

Gywall's old layout (long time ago) made my computer slow, Impala's layout made the animation have to go first before the page appear, and smwedit's layout... well, it used to have music in it...

I don't have problems with layouts anyway... except with quotes at the beginning with a
----------------------
after it. Distracting. At least put something like


that to differentiate it.

My layout is original. Simple. Just perfect for me. No fancy graphics or anything. Just pure CSS and tables.

And the bottom can change from anything I want... although I prefer quotes...

I ask people for their code because I don't like to rip it off them without them knowing.

@UnsurpassedDarkness: Didn't you take the filter thing from my layout? I know someone did.

Also, there is no more "porn" layouts left. Mine is just trees, and soon it will be different (within the next hour I hope), but it will still just be nature. I've had enough "porn" for once.

You currently have the layouts of the following people blocked:
blackhole89 (Unblock)
Chickenlump (Unblock)

Used to have a lot more. All of them because it took forever to load. Otherwise I wouldn't block it.

..........

You do realize that only shows the "You're banned loser" message, not actually bans you. (Though you're not the first to think that. I seem to recall someone clicking such a link in someone else's layout, and then PMing an admin asking to be unbanned. )

Anyway, time to trendwhorishly post my block list, after going through it unblocking layouts that no longer suck. (It used to be like twice as long. )

I block layouts that meet any of the following conditions, unless they're damn good:
  • Text in header, unless separated from post, written in different colour or made small. (WHAT makes people think that "I'm a level 102
    Star Mario and have 6141 postsYeah I thought that was cool too!" looks good? Even if there is a line break?)
  • Crappy background, or BG that makes it unreadable.
  • Bad text colour.
  • Takes forever to load, or doesn't load at all.
  • Poorly-coded causing rendering problems, or glitches up for some unexplained reason. (I think it was Kasumi-Astra's which looks good, but for some reason has its text colour changed when I use Proxomitron, though I can't find what exactly causes it, and it becomes unreadable. Also Kitten Yiffer's uses divs in a odd way that triggers a bug in Firefox making it scroll to the bottom of the page when I click it. )
  • Has a scrollbar. Scrolling layouts SUCK!
  • Huge images where there shouldn't be.
  • Bad use of tables (eg crowded post area, too much empty space, text area too small).
  • Crappy animated GIFs.
  • Contains Flash. (||bass's is soooo close to this, but the rest of it is cool so I don't mind. Imoto's also escapes because it's just a small unobtrusive clock. )
  • Text too big, too small, or bad font (especially Terminal which only shows up as blotches for me).
  • Just plain sucks.


I also usually temp-block layouts that are broken or whose server is down, until they can be fixed. Though sometimes I forget to unblock them. And I disable layouts entirely at school, because most of the school computers suck, and their connection is way slow even on the good computers. (Actually, in most cases I don't even log in because of all the spyware, so I don't see the layouts. I type my password by copying and pasting things into Notepad, so keyloggers don't get it, and just copy that into the password box whenever I post.)

What I feel makes a good layout is, well, like mine.
  • Simple - not a whole lot of images or text everywhere.
  • Good colours that don't clash.
  • Uses up the entire post area. It really sucks when the post area is 900 pixels wide but there's only 3 words on a line.
  • Small filesize, ~50K or less. (I know, I violated that a few times... This one's only like 20K though.)
  • Stable; server doesn't crash every 8 minutes.
  • Does not contain stupid Tripod images and other such nonsense. (Test, people!)
  • Stretches well. The worst type of layout is that which is based entirely around one image. Scrolling layouts suck hard. (With clever use of tables it's really not hard to make a stretchable layout that looks like one big image, depending on the image. If not, use a different image.)
  • Doesn't waste a lot of space. No 800x600 images in headers, please (and yes, I've seen this done ). Images are alright if not too big; the text area should be at least 75% of the height and width of the entire layout.
  • Doesn't contain disturbing, gross, or just plain stupid content.
  • Is adaptable. A good layout will look good on any board theme, in any browser, at any resolution from 800x600 and up. (640x480 is not a resolution you should be surfing with. Nor anything below 1024x768, really.)
  • NO GIANT WEBSITE BANNERS! A small text link or maybe a non-animated (or simply-animated, like a moving dot or something) banner similar in size to your average ad banner is fine. A banner that takes up 1/4 of the screen is NOT!


Since I don't intend to change my layout anytime soon, I had a neat idea for one. Use the board's CSS to make a layout similar to whatever scheme the user is using!

I didn't block yours, because you had a dark background.
