my PaX gfx don't work

Here is what they looked like for me in PaX. Main page ok on login, but gfx disappearing when links clicked. Wasn't it better ìn th eold days before menu started reloading for every page? At least then one didn't have to click back to get a link to try and load again.
PaX gfx

Now it's the same again this round.
latest version gfx

Never mind what I think of the game features and changes. I won't even nortice most of them because pages dont' load.

I'd say that as a paying customer I deserve better, but naturally I haven't paid since PaX started, I'm not paying for something that doesnt' work.

Re: my PaX gfx don't work

There is an easily available fix.

The HTML code needs to include the width and height for each menu image. That way, browsers may reload the graphics (although I've set mine to only check for updated images once an hour, and fetch them from cache otherwise), but they won't actually have to rebuild the menu, as it will remain the same size and can be operated even when the images haven't fully loaded in. This solution is fairly easily doable, since the menu is static anyway.

Without the size for menu buttons absolutely defined in the HTML code, the browser has to wait for the images to load, in order to determine their size. Since they don't load in from the top down, this causes the menu to frequently resize as each new graphic is loaded in and moves the placeholders for the other ones around.

Edit: Although I don't know why the image alt-codes are not appearing in Chax' screenshots.

Re: my PaX gfx don't work

Clear your temporary internet files. internet explorer does that for me sometimes on random images on web pages, right clicking the box and going to show image fixes it though forcing it to redownload them all again shoudl fix it for good
