Thanks karsten, but there’s lots more coming right around the corner. A quiet, subtle revolutions is taking place!

Ryan! You see me happy as a child
Is there something like a sneak peak? A upcoming feature list? Some Screenshots? Somewhat.. somewhat?

Ahhhhhhhhh... you have to know.. normally I was out of webdesign/developement business for some years and only did marketing stuff... then I met Marc (http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=2605) and Mambo/Joomla alongside and sometime later he gave me the modx-tipp... and this was really fascinating... so easy... so modular... so xhtml/css... so... phun that now I really looking forward to make some smaller projects with your great work here... even if it´s not really in my job description

Sorry - I´m drifting away from thread-topic and start to bootlick - so I better shut up and got to bed now

Good night,
Karsten

p.s.: Is there something like a google-earth-overview map-module of the forum members here? Would be fun to see where everyone is from and where we have the big "user clouds" (france probably?

*shhhhhhhh* Sneak Peaks come out in due time

...and check this http://www.frappr.com/modx (but dont ask me what I am doing in water )

I actually one other computer at my home, and for some reason, since this past few months, it’s been displaying the font incorrectly on certain site. Sometime it happens on the windows system itself. I’m not accusing you guys have problem with your computer, but I have this same problem on my broken computer. So you guys might want to check the symptomps of your computer, if you guys find the fonts sticking together or looks abnormal.

Just my other two cents

Hmm.. I tried to simulate this strange additional pixel appearance... but the only way I could accomplish a similar effect, was by giving the type "abnormal" kerning (tracking) and horizontal scaling values:



Therefore there isn´t anything like this noticed in the css-file, it seems like a problem with your os? Probably you shouls try to reinstall the "Arial" font on your system?

Greetings,

I second that, it happened to me a while ago, but after restarting the computer it was working fine again.

Hope this helps

Well... I am not going to format my system to fix the display of the only site in the world that displays wrong!
Nor am I going to buy a new computer to read the news correctly, and if you don’t care about people having low resolution, it might be a reason not to join. And even with a higher resolution I wouldn’t enjoy loosing an empty left column and a 60px margin... When things looks to wide to me, it’s easy to reduce the windows’ size. Haven’t achieved that the other around!

Btw, in these news, the "code" part display correctly to be read (even if it looks like a little shrunk). So maybe the trouble comes from the surprising "76%" font set, but I am not sure if that’s what applies to the core news, can so clarify that?

Ehmm...

I don’t think we will try to fix this problem for now, because we are planning to have a new layout in place. We will try to have the new look to meet a lot of majority in here. Hey, we aldo can’t satisfied all the visitors that visited this forum, right? Especially if that is only happening to 1 or 2 people.

Well... I am not going to format my system to fix the display of the only site in the world that displays wrong!

So anyway, if you have any other feature suggestion, please do post, we will try to takle that on the next template. But if I can politely ask, could you speak in a better manner please? I’m saying this not as part of the MODx community, but sometime I’m personally offended by your sentences. I’m not sure whether this is a languag/culture problem as I’m not personally born in native english speaking country. Hope it’s just my misunderstanding of the way ho wyou use your wording

Take care!

toti, I’m going to override the forum default just for you. I’m sorry that we’re doing such an offensive job. I looked at it on my brother’s blackberry, and you’re absolutely right! It’s terrible!!!
