well... now that it's here, what do you think of it? love it? hate it?
PostPosted: Thu Aug 09, 2007 2:55 pm


I just don't like the new daily chance.

Because it's a claw machine.

And I HATE claw machines. I hate the way they mock me as I am denied my prize time and again. They are one of several great evils in this world like paying taxes and blind dating.

but yeah, the new layout is pretty zazzy.

Could somebody help me? They changed all the fonts around so I can't read it because it's too small and I can't even figure out where to go to figure out how or if I can change it. If I can't, it's bai-bai gaia.

Are you using IE or Firefox?

Maybe your font display setting got messed up.

In Firefox: View ----- > Text Size ----- > Increase

In IE: View -------> Text Size ----> Large or Largest

If this doesn't work I'll do some searching around to see if I can't find some other way to fix it for you.

IE, and it's still set to largest but it still looks meekro (maybe 9-10 pt and I need probably 12 pt or better).

Yipes! That's awful.

I've just looked at it in IE, and for me it doesn't seem to be any smaller than usual, (in IE or Firefox.) In Firefox, I was able to increase text size to nearly full-screen height, but in IE, when I increased it, the toolbar increased in font size, but things like messages did not.

Since this is an accessibility issue that I'm sure Gaia would want to resolve, I suggest emailing them and seeing if you can get any help.. or trying Firefox to see if that works better for you.

I like it . (dodges rotten tomatoes)

seriously though, I don't think it's that bad. I like the artwork and the drop down menus are definitely more helpful then the across menus. Also, is it just me or did they add a spell check feature to their message system? I've never had that red line appear before. Very cool.

Yeah, there are issues, but it's new, so that's expected, but it's still better than I expected it to be, so yay for that.

As for the DC machine, I'm not really a fan, but at least we still get the daily chance, right?

And I agree with the two of you (above me that is) 3nodding It is interesting and such the only thing I don't like about the DC thing is that it could've looked differently like maybe a wheel or something, but NOT a claw machine. xd

I'm not sure yet... I'll have to get used to the layout first before I can judge.

Right now, I'm not very fond of it, but it may grow on me. It looks a bit more "mature" which I like.

Thanks nessachan, I think I got it straight (it's still smaller then I'd like but for now, it's tolerable).

for the most part, i think it's pretty cool. i'm not a huge fan of the new dc, i think they could hvae done something different with it. and it just seems that the entire site tends to lag for me, and i have to reload pages often. does anyone else have this problem? or is it my computer just being a pain in the a**?

I haven't made up my mind about it yet. Don't love it, don't hate it. I think I'll need some more time before I can really judge it properly....
