Bugs and Suggestions

Are we ever going to get the ability to post pictures? By "we", I mean users with sufficiently high enough reputation (and membership tenure?).

Suggestion - how about a new user icon that indicates people that have been members for over 10 years... Smile | :)

Not a true solution, but you can always use imgur.com.

You mean an old fart's icon? Or do you mean an icon that represents the wisdom, self-restraint and all round nurturing grandfatherly ways our elder members exhibit?

Pictures in forums: They will come.

Can you get the "psycho" look into 16x16 pixels? With the blood-dripping axe?

Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

That's what JSOP's avatar already is? Seriously, what is that hideous thing? Sigh | :sigh:

That's the turkeymonkey from a 1995 computer game featuring the band Devo, called "The Adventures of The Smart Patrol".

I scanned the image from Wired Magazine over 20 years ago.

Wow. After all these years that mystery is solved.

I think I need to go sit down somewhere quiet.

You should print this thread on paper, and store it in a secure, cool, and dry place for reference later when the topic comes up again. Because it WILL come up again.

Yes. (Either way, that's me. Because you know how restrained and nurturing I am. Smile | :)

I know this is in beta (at least that's what the tab says).

Q0: Does the "Profile Stylesheet" apply only to the profile page?
Q1: Does it also apply to posts on that page?
Q2: If not, can we please have that feature? Thanks! Jig | [Dance]

Q3: Does it also apply to any posts that I make anywhere on the site?
Q4: If not, can we please have that feature? Thanks! Jig | [Dance]

Q5: Can we have a stylesheet for the signature? Yes, I know I can do inline styles, but that takes away precious limited characters...

Either way, have some Beer | [beer]

and a

on me.

Q3/4/5: My guess would be "no" and "hell no"! Smile | :)

Until scoped CSS[^] gains widespread browser support, there's no way to restrict a block of CSS to only apply to a particular part of the page. If you apply a user's custom stylesheet to every page with one of that user's posts, we'll end up with an unreadable mess. Some users will do it by accident; others will do it deliberately.

Well you can do css "scoping" of a sort now with inline styles on the element. (Of course, I can do that myself now). But Christ said no and I'll take what I can get. But at least I have some style control. For now.

Yes
Yes. It applies to the whole page.
GOTO 1
No
No.
No.

3-5: We've spent an awfully large amount of time ensuring the site works as we intend it to work, on the devices on which we intend it to work, and with the look that represents our branding. Allowing anyone, anywhere to change the CSS of the entire site would be wicked fun, but we may as well have no CSS at all and just open it up to the hordes. It would be crazy fun and very quickly unusable.
