Is there really a use for displaying the current date and time in a post? Most computers I know of that are capable of loading this board have a clock in a much more convenient place. Perhaps it should instead display the date/time the post was made.

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.)

Well if you look at where it says "Post #902" in my header, I wanted it to say "Post #902, Created at [time of post]", but it seems to use the current time (which BTW is what the FAQ says).

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. )

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.

With a good computer, sure. The dual screens might eliminate full-screen mode unless you have 2 monitors though. (The touch-screen could be simulated with the mouse.)

I can tell you one thing though, no way my computer'll do it.

THAT'S INSANE!

Anyway, what's the problem, the plant is setting its own priority settings and you can't just override them? Looks like you used layer 2, why not have the back half on it?

All tiles do that. It's more noticeable with Yoshi Coins because of so much transparent area around them. All you can do is put them on another layer, or make big square ones that replace their tiles with whatever should be below them when touched.

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.

I've done some tweaking as per your various suggestions. The BG is now aligned to the bottom to look more natural in long posts (I will NOT use a scrolling layout, hell, I don't even know how ). I've faded it at the edges to blend more naturally into the black around it, and reduced the filesize by 77%. (For some reason I had Photoshop set to save it at max quality. ) It's a mere 89K now.
The status images along the side are gone, the table borders eliminated, and the two random smilies (except the 'icon' in my titlebar) dead. I've done away with the ugly buttons in favour of links, since I'm no longer using an 'interface' style.
The Japanese text on the left is now a transparent GIF, so those of you without Japanese/Unicode support can see it properly, and I fixed the lines as mentioned earlier. (I hope those were the right lines... )
Oh, and as for the logo up there, I don't see any white border. Are you using WinXP? I know it does a better job of anti-aliasing, so maybe it's smoothed out.

...So yeah, here's the new version.

My life's average suckiness is simple: High in the morning, low in the afternoon. (I am NOT a morning person, and the news my mom absolutely must watch has uber-annoying music.) In the afternoon, though, once I'm awake somewhat, it's generally alright. During the holidays, it's usually great, unless I'm with my dad, then it ranges from hell to alright, depending on the situation and how many of those damn brat kids are around. Throw in a few random instances of everything from Kill Me Already to WOOHOO and that pretty much covers it.
