Title: Search Function in Upper Bar
Post by: Eric on July 13, 2012, 07:12:50 PM
The Search function in the bar that shows your avatar and "Hey, Eric" and blah blah blah, isn't usable because the "shinobilegends" link to the front of the forum is in the way.

Is that because my avatar is too large? I know I can always just click "search" next to "help" but I'm curious to know why my search bar up there isn't accessible.

Which screen resolution + skin do you use?

I have my "Search" button visible here =(

Believe it or not, after a good bit of searching, I don't know what you mean by skin, cause I don't see options to change the skin for the SLF (shinobilegends forum).

But anyways, screen resolution is: 1366 x 768

fraps? that's more for video recording ^^

try hitting the "print" button on your keyboard. open windows paint, CTRL-V and you have a picture ;)
snapshot out the part you want to share, and upload it to i.e. imageshack.us

You're not the only person who has the forum news in the way.  :P

So it's my avatar?

Okay, to address this (now that I have seen it):

1. Moved the search bar and gave it an absolute position. Tested in Firefox+Chrome.
2. Moved the news more to the right (in case you have a bigger avatar). Looks not so good if you are a guest, but suits well if you are logged in.
3. If avatar pictures are now longer, they are still cut but don't overay with the news (see 2.)

:-) is it all good?

Thanks for the heads-up, I tend to overlook such things.

I don't see how the news had anything to do with it, but yeah, it's fixed. Thanks Neji!  :D

Long avatars did flow into the news ;) making them not readable.

Oh! So why not just scale down the avatars like you do on SL?
