Re: Welcome to the updated VOGONS

Tell you what. Here's an "old skool" opinion. But guess what: The world doesn't stop spinning just because you want technologies back that are clearly out-of-style in the year 2020. Nobody uses tables anymore to do webdesign - what comes next, you'd like to have frames and flash animations back? …

Having managed websites and web servers at my job I can say without a shadow of a doubt you are way over complicating things. But what ever... I also manage a few websites and a forum, and I can perfectly understand the reasoning behind not adding more themes. It's always a wish of the users! But …

Nobody is using high DPI screens to browse Vogons... this is a retro PC and DosBOX forum... no teenager comes here with their smartphone and retina displays. Uhm...I rarely access this website with my retro PC's. Because they are slow and it doesn't make sense to browse the web with them for longer …

Re: What game are you playing now?

I discovered the lineup from Arkane Studios this year with Prey. This game is absolutely amazing and everything I ever wanted - various hints to System Shock, a setting on a space station and a very rich story with a lot of mysteries. It's so much fun to get immersed into this game world and yet, …

- The gumdrop emojis... I'm at a loss for words. I believe the type of emoji comes from your operating system. On Android, you'll get the Android emojis. Apple display their own ones. It's actually not that easy to override those with different, more beautiful emojis. In my opinion, the ones from …

I don't particularly have anything against replacing the normal cursor. If it was only a dumb thing that didn't break functionality, but this also removes the "Text Select" cursor, so it's harder to make out where you can select text. That should be fixable with this CSS: .post_main .post_content { …

I have the best LCD panel manufactured and it doesn't like the dithering, my guess is the cheaper innacurate panels dont have a problem with it. I have a HP LP2475W, which is especially made for graphic designers and has 100% Adobe RGB support. Nothing looks out of the ordinary when scrolling. The …

I don't like it. I'm not a fan of those weird aligned lines as style elements which are all over the place now. Looks like a theme from 2005. I really like those elements. Like I said in the other thread, it gives this site a retro look and reminds me of old times, which is exactly what this …

I really like it. Dotted lines and not quite complete rectangles - it somehow feels familiar. Like I'm in an operating system from the early 2000's, with a bit more purple added into it. And it's finally responsive! Oh the wonders of a modern world!
