Re: Skins - Question/Request

Hello Kree, long time no see.

The reason why the excel skin and all the old skins are gone is because the game has gone through some changes that have made the old skins unusable. There are people working on making new skins from time to time, but as of now, I havent heard of anyone planning to remake the old excel skin.

Re: Skins - Question/Request

Jolt want to spend a bare minimum amount of cash on the game.
So every round they change stats (needs an entire it department 24/7 2 weeks) and then they jack up the support bots in the appropriate chans.

Revamping skin to their new layout would take them at least a day, and as I said they needed all the manpower changing the stats

I have to disagree slightly with you. Jolt hardly cares at all about PA, thats true, but none of the skins that was made for the old outlook was made by Jolt, they were mostly made by graphic artists within the community. I think that the PA team endorses and wants people make them, and I am sure that there will come more skins when the graphic monkeys gets started.

In regards to the stats changing, I wont start a whole new thread to detour the thread, but in my opinion the stats change to much each round.

Re: Skins - Question/Request

I expirienced difficulties with the constant use of various colors on the main page, especially from the PA Team a problem when using the excel skin. Wish PA team could use monochromatic color choices when updating the overview screen.

Re: Skins - Question/Request

I looked into doing a new text-only stylesheet, and possibly an Excel one as well.

However, despite the fact that the code has received a number of improvements last round (a number of which were even suggested by myself), it still is a gigantic mess of random font tags, mixed HTML and XHTML tags, nested tables and essentially lacking any sense of semantics or structure, making it way too much work to write a decent looking stylesheet that doesn't break something on half the pages.

So yeah, consider this my roundly rant at the developers who seemingly wouldn't recognize HTML if it hit them in the face with a baseball bat.

PS. Also half the skins currently ingame don't work properly (sup Cathaar) or are ****ing horrible to look at (sup The Gate).
