Now the site attack has diminished, we are going to return to the forum maintenance again this evening and try and solve a few of the teething problems we have seen.

Therefore the forum will go offline for a period just after 10pm.

Hopefully to return fresher and even better than before. We will keep you updated on progress as it happens. When it returns, let us know if you spot any problems.

the layout seems to be missing the tab icon. i'm sure it was there before. normally found in the page html header:

Code: Select all

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://forum-url.com/favicon.ico" />
given the amount of tabs that i and am sure, many have open, this is a very visually useful piece of info. i know it is present on the main betangel website so maybe something can be taken from that :D

I can confirm its the same for me - I couldn't put my finger on it at first - why the BA tab didn't stand out as usual until jimibt pointed it out.

This has now been tweaked so you should see it again, may need a force refresh.

btw - i'm being a bit (VERY) nerdy here, but would also point out that previously, the headerbar/forumbg was a nice FLAT single colour.
it now has the 2010's style of graduated shading. removing that would make it SOO much nicer and simpler:

current:

Code: Select all

.headerbar, .forumbg {
    background-color: #12A3EB;
    background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, #6ACEFF 0%, #0076B1 2px, #12A3EB 92px, #12A3EB 100%);
    background-image: linear-gradient(to bottom, #6ACEFF 0%,#0076B1 2px,#12A3EB 92px,#12A3EB 100%);
    background-repeat: repeat-x;
}
preferred:

Code: Select all

.headerbar, .forumbg {
    background-color: #12A3EB;
}
