haha.. easier said than done!

I'll see if I can try something for the forum, but may wait until I'm done v3.0

btw... credit for the christmas graphics go out to AnthonyD.

nice
and thanks for pointing it out
i usually bypass the front page

:beerchug:

good work

but now Anthony needs to get started on the photo thread for this site

The new front page is pretty nice.

The falling snow is a nice touch too.

I'm having a little trouble with the snow.
I forgot to put the winters on.
I don't own a Focus.
And I need a bigger shovel.

I was beginning to wonder what the heck snow you were talking about, then it loaded. :lol: Looks good! I like how there are settings to change the wind and turn it off. And I see there is a rotating image on the main page eh, looks awesome! I assume that's to please everyone's request for a gallery?

Really, stop the snow.

I find it hard to look at and type.

And it slows my old puter down.

You can select to turn off the snow on the top left hand corner of the main forum directory.

It appears to be slowing down the page transitions. While the script loads you have no control over the page. A nice effect but gets annoying as you wait for the browser to regain control.

Me too, it makes navigating slower than a Focus with an SPI and an autotragic.

Looks like it's more of a problem with IE though, Firefox is not so bad.

But doesn't it make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside? I like it.

Good job Steve!

Seasons Greetings Everyone :)

not slowing me down :D

:unsure: Me neither. :D

I like the graphics on the front page, but its so much white that I could actually feel my retinas screaming in agony :blink: Any way you can add something or tone down the whiteness?

I like the snow effect as I'm writing messages though, makes me wish we actually had some snow here :P

and to think of all the complaints I received when I changed the site to the black skins..

:P

I'm afraid you'll just have to done your sunglasses for now to prevent snowblindness.

The site is looking to switch to a brighter theme on the next refresh...

And since there appear to be people with less machine than the slowest one I own, I may switch to a different snowfall..

Okay, I'll grab my sunglasses from the car from now on then ;)
