The text seems too light for that background color.

The text/BG color is okay, but the background seems to be optimized for rather... short posts at the moment.

I just updated font colors.

As far as length goes, I agree that it looks better with shorter posts, but it doesn't look out-right bad with longer posts.

Except the left part looks poor when your post is big.

Yeah, I've confirmed that it doesn't render correctly in Firefox 3.5. (and possibly other versions.)
I'm going to fix it later.

Last view: 3015 days 		I hope you'll success. Because otherwise the layout is nice.

Designing anything web-related under IE is just something NOT to do. Let's hope you didn't do it...

By the way, can you try and make a multiquote test? Just curious to see how the layout handles those.

Derp I use Chrome not IE. There's more browsers than just FF and IE you know...

Also multiquote looks bad, I haven't gotten around to fixing it.

It would look pretty nice if it didn't leak out the right side like that.

Kawa: You use Opera right? Does the black bar cut off below the image in it?

I think if I added borders it would ruin the layout's simplistic motif.
Edit: Also sometimes quotes are randomly longer.

You mean in the long OP? There's the bubbly part, then a black strip down the entire length of the post. Is that as intended? Cos it sure looks that way.

Same under Firefox, but it's a blue strip.

Seems to depend on how many times you quote.

Yeah that's how it's supposed to be. In firefox there's no black bar going past the image. It just stops. I'll chalk it up as Firefox's fault and not Chrome's. Although I suppose it could be Opera and Chrome's fault.

I kept blockquotes from stretching all the way to the end of the post now. Still need to look at multi-quotes. Also I need to make sure the main post area is always the correct length.

Edit: Scratch that, this quote just leaked. What the hell.
Edit 2: Ok, so now the post area is always as long it should be. Which leads to leaking quotes. Oh boy. I'll have to play with margins I guess.

Man why does board2 use blockquotes, they're pretty horrible.

Last view: 3015 days 		Actually, your quoteboxes seem to not manage overflows correctly.
Setting the CSS overflow property might help, or it might not help, depending on how the various browsers are stupid.

Best I could do with overflow is make an annoying horizontal scroll bar appear.

Right now I just need to figure out why the quotes are overflowing horizontally. I know it happened once I made sure the post area used it's full width. Just not why doing that made the quotes overflow.

Thus I shall repeat: <blockquote> is a horrible tag.

Edit: Fixed it. The problem was a stray width: 100%; Why that would make it overflow, I'll never know. It fixed multi-quotes also.

Last view: 3015 days 		But, if you make the post area use full width, your post will overflow the area it's supposed to fit in, won't it?

Unless you want your posts to use full width and quoteboxes to use fixed width?

Edit: ah yeah, that's much better now! [thumbs up]

Note to self: Putting setting a blockquote's width to 100% messes shit up.

I just went ahead and decreased the blockquote margins, since they're offset by a little too much in their original form.

It wasn't exactly meant to be used this way, let alone fully user-skinned. On other boards, you only need to make sure it works once.
