Hi all

Its been a long time since Ive come to COTEC, but every now and then I did check in to see what was going on.

I have to say it was very good to see the admin taking the initiative and reskinning the forum from old blue.

I know they wouldnt mind me creating a whole new skin for the forum. I hope everyone likes it, its alot more Chaosy then ever I'd say. Its so hard to get the time to do all these extras, but I am on holidays so decided to revist my online home.

As you probably would have noticed, we have a little instant messenger that should really help out with CAOD. Its probably not a big thing since other forums are bound to have it, but its an upgrade nonetheless.

A few board statistics have been added for interest as well. COTEC has been running for over 1100 days now :)

Oh and just a note, that all the skin images are found on the actual invision server, so we wont have to worry about the skins ever leaving us again.

I know I wont be able to stay for long because work is just so full on. But I will try and come back every now and then, I just need good motivated people to take the reins and get life pumping back into this place.

The new site looks awesome Bearer. Nicely done.

However each time I try and visit the site I get an error message. I'm currently use firefox and it says:

"A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete."

When I push 'stop script' I can do login normally and everything works. Can't figure out what this means...

It could be the do with the java. make sure that is up to date on your computer. the shoutbox is the other thing that could be messing with your firefox, but i was so sure it was cross browswer compliant.

Is anything important efftected? Like you can still do everything you normally did.

What java version should one have installed?

At the moment I have: version Standard Edition, 1.6

I gather that would be fine.

He only java that has been tacked onto the invision board itself is the extra board statistics stuff. All the rest is standard CSS.

That message usually occurs when something has timed out. If the messaged occurs again click continue. I was sending a bulk email too, so it might have been crossing some lines I dont really know.

It really looks awesome! Amazing done!

I get the same error as Kaldour though but as long as I can post I think it will be good enough. Will keep my ears opened for any fixes though. ;)

Is it just me, or did the text turn smaller?

It's better than the last skin, yellow on grey is easier on the eyes than grey on black.

Looks great, but I also have some script problem when using Firefox (none when using explorer though).

I've removed the java that gave the stat on how many days cotec has been up and running. It wasnt really that important so its no great loss. Main question is if firefox users continue to get the same error message.

Hopefully not :)

But glad everyone is liking the skin so far.

The board statistics are still there when using Firefox, but not when using Explorer (& they take an awful lot of space, the forum itself only takes a 10:th of the entire page)
