Firefox 3 Release & Stardock Site Compatibility
Jul 30, 2008 12:59

Firefox 3.0 goes final and is scheduled for release on Tuesday, June 17th.

There are currently known incompatibilities between Firefox 3 and many of our sites and forums. For the most part, the sites function properly, but have formatting issues. A specific example are the login & password fields to log into these forums. In Firefox 3, instead of both being on the same line, they are stacked vertically.

We will be addressing these visual issues in time. Please do NOT post threads on the forums pointing out Firefox 3 site issues. They will be deleted. We are aware of the problems and will work as quickly as we can to resolve them.

Until posted otherwise, the only version of Firefox our sites support at the moment is Firefox 2.

A Tribute suite for BoXXi

By Posted May 17, 2008 22:55:52

I was just thinking about the community suite and stuff and an idea has come up that I wanna chuck at you.

I was thinking that we could do a tribute suite to someone who has recently left WC, that being BoXXi. He's been a big part of this community and I think we could all put together this suite as a tribute to someone who's meant a bit to the community.

I was thinking we could take one of his blind/icon sets and tweak/insert complete suite out of it

Thoughts?

TheD2JBug, a very nice and thoughtful community project. I'm sure that BoXXi would appreciate it.

Good idea. One thing though, why did he leave? Is he OK? Did I miss that info?
May 18, 2008 03:23:24

No info was given as to why he left, but he is missed. I want to be a part of this, if I may. Just let me know what I can do!

Nice idea

This is a totally great idea... a tribute suite in BoXXi's honour would be a pretty special way to show the community's appreciation for his participation and wonderful contributions over the years.

Yup, it has to be a goer.

Count me in too ... what a fab idea ..I echo starkers sentiments all the way ...

I always thought that his Mobo Windowblind was the best one he did , and he said that was one of his favourites .... WWW Link

I could do a DX theme or a basic media player widget or the sort...

Let us know what blind we are basing it on.

or wallpapaer....or icon....or Xion....he really made a variety of things!
May 18, 2008 13:42:46
Great, now we need a wb,a dream, log-on,wp,cursor,mp,icons,DX stuff,what else? What a tight community,I just got here and I miss BoXXi too.  I think he will be pleased.   If you need a 32 bit vista tester,I'm in.
May 18, 2008 18:42:26
I was thinking 'fruitloops' would make a great tweaking project, it has no cursors, icons ect...dosent have any matching anything.....and i certainly could tweak the wb into something extra special.

then again, maybe we should vote on it? what does everyone think?

....i know fruitloops is very colourful.....but with my tweaking, it can still be gorgeous, but i would problibly tweak some of the colours and make it more unison and less fruitloopy.....but still delicious.........
May 18, 2008 20:09:30
.......I just took a good look at MOBO....i think it has serious potenial also......


sysmetrix, icons, xion, rainlender...the lot i reckon.....  

.....a supersuite.

You are right thats an excellent pick of a windowblind.  
May 18, 2008 21:52:07
Well So far we have
Fruitloops
Mobo
My thought was Creamware ( but there's an Xion skin and some cursors

My thought is let us all decide. And once we have a consenus ( mabye a poll ) we can then begin.

So give out your choices. If someone can list the potentials and have us kinda vote that would be great
May 18, 2008 21:58:21
I like Fruit loops too
May 18, 2008 22:04:27
Umm . .one thing . . permission would be needed before anything could be done with anything.
May 18, 2008 22:06:24
I wonder if I can embed a poll here without breaking anything?

Nope. 
May 18, 2008 22:06:59
But zu.....didnt boxxi say that we had permission in his fairwell post?......or do we need extra extra permission?
