Title: 4um's "Original" Skin Modified

The "Original" skin for 4um, in place since 4um first went live, has been modified.

The purpose of the modification was to bring the old look in line with the revised art/style instituted with the very sophisticated "brushed" look, and I think we've succeeded. However, we also hope that the changes preserve the advantage of the original skin in being useful for those who might have a screen resolution smaller than 1024x768, or who otherwise prefer not to have the browser window fill their entire computer screen. With the original skin, you can shrink the width of the browser window without having the dreaded left/right scroll bar appear at the bottom.

Feedback is welcome. Thank you. Subscribe to *4um Admin News*

I'm sooooooo glad I didn't get pissed off right off the bat! I couldn't believe it when after I logged in, I was still seeing the new (vs the original original). Did a real double take, so just picked a different skin name and eventually got back what I wanted.

Reality tells us y'all ain't gonna whack us without at least a discussion, or even just a plain old ordinary decree.

Thanks for all you do, Neil...and ladies.

Yes, I hate it when that happens too. I much prefer 5 or 10 minutes warning. ;^)

On a more serious note, if you are saying that you chose the skin called "New Original" to get back to the true original with the yellow and blue banner, please know that the plan is to discontinue it. I created the "New Original" skin as a workplace to develop the new skin, and when christine gave me the word, I switched the "Original" with the "New Original" so that everyone using the "Original" would suddenly see the new work. So what's now called "New Original" is the soon to be discontinued skin.

The hope is that the new art will be satisfactory to everyone preferring a lower resolution screen and/or browser window not maxed out, while bringing it in line with the trademark art that christine has gone through a lot of trouble to create for this site.

So any detailed comments on particulars on the new skin are appreciated. I'm using it myself to look for any pesky issues.

For whomever is the puter genius at 4um.

Perhaps the print at bottom of this page could be a tad larger????

ie HOME thru REGISTER

Everything else is fine. That print is a mite small for these tired old eyes and bottle bottom glasses.

If this will put me on the constant whiner list, please put it in very small print as I do not want people to know I whine a lot.

Yes.. And top is fine, I can see them without having to lean into screen.

Don't do it if is lot of trouble. I have zero knowledge of puter workings.

I'm happy to change that but I'm puzzled as I'm seeing them the same size and see no reason why they should be different from one another. Can you verify for me the exact webpage where you see them different sizes?

And you are viewing the new skin where the background is pure white and the red 4um banner spans the entire top of your browser?

It's no problem. I appreciate the feedback.

This is at bottom page when I am replying...

However the actual print is prolly half or less of what I copy and paste here.

I do not understand how it can be tiny when I copy and be this size when I paste????

The same line at the top of each page is in white and prolly four times the size of the line at bottom in black.

Okay, you're not using the new skin. You're using the "Brushed" skin as only that one has the top nav links in white.. I took a peak and you're on the "Brushed 90%" which is the default. You can change "skins" on the setup page (linked on the nav bar). It might interest you to try the other skins.

Yes, the font at the bottom is much smaller than it is at the top. It's been that way since it was created. If it should be changed it's never too late.

Yes, when you cut n paste it into the comment box, the font changes. That's normal. The font is usually/never not copied when you cut n paste to a web page.
