Jason

I'm still gonna go back to Retro when it's ready, but Playstation and Xbox are both looking like nice alternatives until then.

Was the Day One Patch graphics logo at the top always this big? I feel like there's an undue amount of vertical space being taken up here:

Hopefully his party can be short of an absolute majority in parliament.

I'm seeing reports of massive voter fraud going on, but if he's stuffing the ballot boxes then why is he bothering to declare victory with 53% of the vote? These types aren't generally known for caring about presenting plausible election margins.

What Jason said is kinda what I wanted to say with but I suck at words. Like it being the default means every person who made an account and then never posted is using the snes them.

Right - I know that was what you meant.  However, even when I look at the data for the regular posters, there isn't much change in their usage.  SNES is still dominant by far.

My point wasn't about all the abandoned accounts though. Most people aren't going to have strong preferences about this kind of thing, and thus it will never even occur to them to see if it's a setting that can be changed as long as nothing about the default is actively objectionable to them.

I was a little sad at first but now, to be honest, I'm actually happy that the boards shit the bed. There's nothing like a fresh start! We let the past die and didn't even have to kill it.  

From an organizational standpoint there was also just a lot of cruft, and other stuff where nobody really remembered who set something a certain way (or why they did), that was the cumulative result of the site ownership/management changing hands multiple times, and we were kind of stuck just trying not to break any of it. Look at what happened when Wade tried to consolidate the gaming boards for example, that wasn't exactly a good sign for the underlying health of the site. Plus the fact that the very DIY nature of the Dreamhost setup made more sense for people like niggles and kyio who do that kind of webdev stuff for work. This was certainly a good excuse to start fresh on that end plus get us over to a host who can actually help us maintain the IPB software end of things--it wouldn't have even occurred to me to look into whether Invision offers hosting if we hadn't gotten to the point of having to seriously consider the possibility of needing to completely start over.

Thank you.

I fixed the cropping for you. It's not super easy to see but there IS a selection tool that pops up when you upload a new image. Otherwise it just (I think) defaults to the center of the image and then showing as much as it can from there.

Apparently the discussion was about civility in politics.

@SFLUFAN @Jose

Is this the most recent one?

Wade, make a copy of the uploads folder (in case something gets screwed up with this) and then run the first reply here on it. Seeing if I could find Jose's icon on the Wayback Machine I noticed this:

vs this for CayceG (who set his icon once and then never changed it):

Although I'm not sure if that's about never changing your icon or using an upload vs import from URL.

Everything after dayonepatch.com/ is the location in the file directory you downloaded where the icon lives...note that there's both thumbs and full sizes.

If people can remember roughly when they uploaded their icon then that'd help you narrow down where to look in the directory where all the subdirectories have been emptied into the top-level one if you then sort it by last modified.

Today I've been trying to work on a programming project for school, but am not very focused. As evidenced by the fact that I'm here.  

I'm sure everyone but my and Wades' productivity spiked during the downtime.

Based on the data, it wouldn't be that much different at all.  The proportions would be roughly the same.

I suspect that whichever one we made the default would get that kind of lopsided representation.

... How would Roseanne have no financial involvement? I would assume she would still get something as a creator of the original show with these characters.

Presumably part of the negotiations to make this happen was getting her to relinquish her stake.

That seems to be just an issue with unread content. There's code that's overriding the full width. Will fix momentarily.

It looks about right for what it'd look like if it's trying to reserve the space for the blocks on the right side of the front page.
