Now with Ajax, and a fresh lemon scent!

Forgot to include it in the 'new comments' and 'post comment' modules. Now fixed.

Coolness, Jer.

Song's goes below the page when I click his.

re: #8 Noam Sayin'

Song's goes below the page when I click his.

So does yours, Charles. Then I can't close the profile because I can't see the 'close' button. I have to close the tab, which knocks me off LGF.

The "close" button was off the screen when I tried Song and Dance Man.

Lessee ...

Unconfirmed reports that head of FARC is dead (Marulanda).

Working good for me.

Coolness.

Reload and it should start further up the page now.

How big is your window? You must be using a pretty small window...

Mine, too - my intentionally bloated original graphic is too big for the room, and the close button doesn't have an underscored shortcut - don't know if it can, in Ajax.

I'm usin' a man-sized window thank you very much.

(Works fine now.)

re: #16 Roentgen

...though the graphics sure look great.

My experience has been the same about half the time.

I'm going to write a comment to myself so I can test it out:

"Ted, remember to feed the cat"

re: #20 ted

I'm going to write a comment to myself so I can test it out:

re: #14 Charles

Did that. It's the size of your avatar which makes the dialog box push below the screen. Clicked on my own profile and it's fine. It's just a crapshoot for those who may have an avatar which renders larger.

And I'm comfortable with the size of my window. ;)

A quick and dirty fix for small windows -- the close button is at the top now.

test

re: #24 Charles

That works. Maybe you could just put that little 'x' in the upper right-hand corner?

I see a fix is needed for large graphics.

re: #1 song_and_dance_man

I noticed that but couldn't get the new pop out window to close.

Gonna try it again now.

Same thing here. Using Safari for windoz and Vista 1024x600 screen res.
Had to close Safari to get out of the new view.
Not good at all....

Can you make 'close this window' the default focus so that hitting enter will close the window?

Without the ability to scroll down it's not going to be very useful.

It's a good start, but needs more work.

re: #27 song_and_dance_man

Now that's an easy fix. Put the close button on top.

What what about 'recent comments?'

re: #24 Charles

A quick and dirty fix for small windows -- the close button is at the top now.

Down and Dirty now is Up and Dirty...

There is some variability with how the pop-up fits the screen with this.

Off scooterin'...

BIAW

If your screen is set to 800 X 600, it's off the page. Change
to 1024 X 768 and it works but you can't read the small
print.

Nifty.

Charles:
What about putting the "Close" button on the right for balance?

Nuance?

After the profile box is closed I notice that anything on the main page that was behind the box shifts a few pixels when the box is closed. It's not a problem, just something peculiar that I noticed.

Charles, now I can't access Song's recent comment button. Boy, does that sound wrong!

It's not just the close button. Part of the box is off the
screen and it won't scroll so you can read the whole thing.

Because I have my font size set so darn large, and if there is an avatar, or a lot of copy, half the info is chopped off at bottom.

:( I like large font

Oh boy, new toy!

Works fine here Boss.

re: #41 Mike in Georgia

It's not just the close button. Part of the box is off the

I'm on a laptop and having the same problem. I had to open an new window to type this after I opened up my profile and got stuck...

re: #30 Noam Sayin'

Same question or problem here.

b.o. gives change a bad name.

oh.. and when the clicking recent comments button it open in same window. :(

re: #36 song_and_dance_man

The Close button is now on top.

That change was made while I was composing my reply.

It still does not solve the problem of not being able to scroll the new view.

It looks cool, but does not work as well as the old way.

OK, same here. That explains my problem, also. I can't make the font size much smaller, or I will have to squint and get wrinkles on my forehead. ;)

Seriously, I do need the large font.

KJT, I'm peeved at you over that one, I've fallen out of my chair three times now laughing at him.

re: #216 LeePro

Oh, my you are challenged!

Just press down on it instead of rolling it.

^{_{/ may be too complicated}}

Wow! It scrolls automatically. I could read with no arms.

And laughing too hard to preview my posts as well.

re: #209 Dianna

I like your avatar. For one thing, I can actually see it in its little box without having to click for a larger size.

His avatar is a perfect example of a key element of graphic design, particularly when designing logos.

You can make the original logo any size you like, but for it to be effective it must be graphically simple enough that it can be shrunk to 1" square and still be recognizable.

re: #224 Dianna

I don't know, but I loved War and Death. "Is this like gravy, it never comes out?"

Love and Death?

re: #221 Dianna

Sigh.....was hoping I wouldn't be asked.....it's one I read when I was young.....but, I did get a personal postcard from the author when I was 16! :) --Born To Trot, by Marguerite Henry..........I was always so thrilled by the real-life intensive go-to-the-spot research she did for each book she wrote..... :)

re: #213 song_and_dance_man

Your finger is forced perspective and that gimmick always suggest the object smaller than it appears. Sorta like a reverse rear view mirror.

sorry

Ha ha ha, that's a good one. Wait, what? Hey!

re: #228 Slumbering Behemoth

Good observation! Design rules are something of a mystery to me.

Coolio...

Silly Fundies are now blaming Darwin for feminism....
What does Feminism and Evolutionary Biology have to do with each other?

Is there any evil that Darwin isn't responsible for?

Testing 1..2...4 uh I mean 3...

re: #231 debutaunt

One of his movies. Very, very funny, particularly if you like Russian novels, or at least had to read them.

For those of you using a Mac (Leopard) - press Ctrl+Cmd+Opt+8.

re: #225 JeremyR

Watch this one 'til the end. It's funnier.

re: #232 Ma Sands

I go to Amazon to look it up.

Clicking the (top) scroll wheel on my Logitech MX Revolution mouse switches from click-scrolling to high speed smooth-scrolling. Perfect for threads with over 400 comments.

Clicking the (left) scroll wheel on the MX Revolution reveals a document flip feature that I've never used...

Clicking the scroll wheel on my Logitech G7 gaming mouse gives me an up/down option only.

I can't ,,, I only have three fingers !

re: #236 Outlaw_Wizard

I like that avatar, but I'm annoyed that I wasn't a witness that day.

re: #240 Racer X

For those of you using a Mac (Leopard) - press Ctrl+Cmd+Opt+8.

Whoa! ! !

Thought they got rid of easter eggs a long time ago!

I tested it on Render- looks awesome!

re: #241 Bobblehead

Yeah, that's a good one too.

re: #240 Racer X

For those of you using a Mac (Leopard) - press Ctrl+Cmd+Opt+8.

Works on Tiger, too.

Hey Charles - cool beans! This added feature is just another in a looooong string of technical upgrades you've made to what is, and was years ago, the most technologically advanced blog in the blogsphere! And, of course, content-wise LGF has also always been at the top of the heap!
Thanks a lot Charles!

re: #235 Dianna

I forgot most of what I've learned, but for some reason that particular design principle has stuck with me. S&DM made a savvy choice for his avatar.

re: #239 Dianna

One of his movies. Very, very funny, particularly if you like Russian novels, or at least had to read them.

Wheat - I loved that! The Monopoly pieces...

re: #244 song_and_dance_man

I know. I can't resist it, either.

re: #207 Slumbering Behemoth

Heh, heh, how big is mine?

/don't take that avatar the wrong way, please

Can barely get to the top and bottom.

/feel better?

;)

re: #237 Killgore Trout

A Darwingo took me baby!

re: #249 Killgore Trout

Just noticed your new avatar. Perfect! Hitch as Buddha says it all!

re: #257 Slumbering Behemoth

Ha!

re: #199 LeePro

Doesn't matter. You can still "select" the text.

I saw that. Anomalies don't sit well with engineers though so I had to ask.

Dog walking time, and then I'm headed for a housewarming party. Maybe I'll get a chance to check in before I have to go, but if not, everyone have a good Saturday evening.

re: #258 afdad

Hitch as Buddha says it all!

Fat Heads rule!

re: #71 Killgore Trout

Just came back online. I am sot sure that anyone did post it in spinoffs.

re: #255 gettinby

/feel better?

Only a little. S&DM took the all vinegar outta me with his #213 :(
Thanks anyway.

re: #263 NY Nana

MAybe I'll add it in a few minutes. A lot of people enjoying the Jihadi blooper clip, I'll add that too.

Why the Democrats are so creepy and pathetic.

My entire screen discovered opposite colors!

Thanks for pointing this one out.

re: #243 Render

Clicking the (top) scroll wheel on my Logitech MX Revolution mouse switches from click-scrolling to high speed smooth-scrolling. Perfect for threads with over 400 comments.

Can't you regulate the speed by moving closer to the arrow thingie?

re: #271 taxfreekiller

So, what do the dumbacrap commies do about a nut with two boobs and one with two nut's and a sure nuf boob.

Perform a castratamastectomy?

I'm back.

Everything seems to work fine now, Charles.

re: #273 LeePro

I love it when someone talks all techie ,,,"thingy" !

re: #251 realwest

right-O!

Hi, {realwest}!

re: #273 LeePro

Nope. Clicking that scroll wheel is just a gear change from low to high. No arrow thing available to get closer too...

I leave it in high gear most of the time.

WFO,
R

Ooh, you will love this one (on a Mac):

Zooming In/Out Display
Press Cntrl+6 and scroll up/down with your mouse will get your display zoomed in/out.

Well, some of y'all's avatars are still too big for me.

BUT

Thanks for pointing out the scrollwheel push-on-it automated movement feature.
