Yep, it's a new layout, and this time without a half-transparent GIF behind the text! (Because as I've found, Win98 sucks at drawing text that way. ) The alignment of the actual text-box (I hesitate to call it that because it's not really a textbox, but what else?) may seem unusual, unless you're using 1280x1024, in which case it should make sense. This is also the first online test, besides in my bio where it looks weird for some reason.

So, any comments? Complaints? Free money for me?
(BTW: I've tested as low as 800x600 and in IE this time. Might I just say IE's table borders are horrifically ugly.)

Yeah, that BG might take a bit to load the first time around. It should hurry up now that it's cached though. (Just hope I don't kill all my bandwidth again. )

I didn't mind. Why complain when I can just highlight the text and it turns out fine?

Your new layout is pretty damned fine. Like your mother.

it's a little big...but, you need to fix your japanese part. the long katakana vowel marker needs to be a vertical line. Otherwise, it is currently being read "haipa, ichi, hakka, ichi"

El Gag.

Not only does the BG completely suck [nice way to stop it half-way across the page, argh] but you have some nice boxes running down the left side.

Oh well.

Other than those, just remove the crap on the right. Takes up space.

Nice job.

Thought do you really need status.php on the right?

Leg: If I'd known you had to do it in the first place, I could have fixed it sooner. And STFU about my mom.

Neo: Er, blame Babelfish. I'll see if I can get a more accurate translation elsewhere (but I can't now, this crappy computer can't display Japanese, so if I try to edit my profile it'll just turn into question marks ).

Xk: What's wrong with the BG, the fact that it cuts off halfway down? I know that's ugly but it only happens in big posts (such as this one). I had to either stop it halfway across or use a really big image which isn't fun when it's already this size, I figured I'd go with the next best thing and use a BG colour that blends in with it.
Plus, what boxes?

Kitten Yiffer: It looks nice on 1280x1024, but I'm thinking I'll kill it anyway. Unless everyone wants to switch, which I do recommend. I don't know how you people can stand 800x600...

Neko: At my resolution, it stops just short of his nose, which is what I was going for. I was hoping it'd do so on any res, but apparently not. It's not really that important, though (and it was either that or another transparent table BG, which we all know doesn't work too well in some OSes with crappy font-drawing code).

XK, again: It's not that big. I'll try some other formats to see if I can get the actual filesize down a bit, though. I know that's a bit much. (Besides, this time it's only one BG, so your cache should take care of the loading thing. )

Cymoro: I tried that, it looked pretty ugly with all the stuff just kinda floating. I do plan to re-do it a bit to fit a borderless table.

It probably would look better BTW in large posts if the BG was in the bottom. Instead of the top which you have currently.

Try that.

babelfish has the right translation, but since you are displaying "haipaahakkaa" vertically, those horiztonal lines need to be come vertical lines. Maybe you can substitute the vertical lines using the pipe for now. as for not displaying japanese, i'm surprised you were able to edit around that and get it squeezed vertically.

Unicode = teh suck.

It's the same reason I call Kawa Boxman on MSN: His name is three boxes. He uses unicode or whatever it is characters to display jap.

I hate that. Boxes are stupid. Don't make me look at boxes. ARgh.

I don't like it, especially at large posts. I'd rather look at the post, not the stupidly useless statistics. Still, I guess I can always scroll through the post an ignoe it.

Well here's the to-do list I PMed myself from school...

-Kill the damn table border and make it work without one.
-Get a more accurate translation for the left side. (Or, rather, fix it so it's right vertically.)
-Kill the status pics, just trash the whole cell.
-Change the BG to 'fade out' the stars to nothingness, so it doesn't look so cut off, and save it at lower quality/different format to make it smaller.

And as of Kitten Yiffer's suggestion, move the BG to the bottom. Also something I thought up later trying and failing to get Win98 to display Japanese, turn it into a GIF.
