The Other Worlds Shrine

Your place for discussion about RPGs, gaming, music, movies, anime, computers, sports, and any other stuff we care to talk about... 

  • Sine, when you toggle the options, there is no longer an option to enter your password. Therefore, when I try to connect from another computer, as is the case now that i'm not at home during the week, I can't post messages. Any way around this?

  • Somehow, we still tolerate each other. Eventually this will be the only forum left.

However, it should at least pop up if you not logged in. Is it not doing this?</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>The bar at the top is quite busy and the stuff on there is quite small. Basically, stuff gets buried on there. The important things, like Login and Post a Message, should be bigger and more centered, since they're ALWAYS in use</div>

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>It's hard to read because it's too much small text in a small space. Even when I know what I'm looking for, it takes a few seconds to find it. The text should be more logically spaced out, and the colors should be less obtrusive.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>It just doesn't stick out very well. The text should be larger, and maybe the login function should be seperate altogether and have it's own spot. Also the colors for each of the four bars should be more distinct, they blend together too much as it is. The text size of it aught be bigger too.</div>
