Hi,

Just joined up. Seems a bit quiet here at the moment though…

Welcome to the forum 🙂

Yeah, the forum’s been through quite a big overhaul recently, and things are still slowly getting back to normal after that.

Edit: @Santah the quoting is still fubar.

It’s still healing. It’ll take another 4 weeks probably to even get close to looking like how it will.

Different people react differently to tattoos in different places.
I can imagine the foot being pretty bad, since there’s relatively little skin and fat covering the muscles and bone.

Strange and unusual is kind of immaterial in the world of tattoos. Most of the best tattoos are, in fact, strange and unusual 😀

Does it bother you?

I’m only looking for sugestions to make this tattoo better looking, as I said, I can’t desing shit, never been a drawer or designer.

You could have it lasered off and replaced with something nicer?

As a very square person with OCD tendencies and love of symmetric things, actually I hate symmetrical and basic form tattoos, for the simple reason that the skin is a fluid object. A perfect square or triangle or circle or any such thing will never look good.

So, I agree with buttwheat.. the disadvantage for either place is that it’ll be seen.

I think the more important question is how are they posting with the same user name as me ?

He’s not. Your username and name are separate things. 🙂

Why are you posting this as a reply to an aftercare thread? Please create your own thread for this discussion.

You can’t truly see how the tattoo will look for another couple of months. I recommend taking a chill pill until then.

As for getting a refund, how will that make a difference? It’s not like you can take that tattoo back to the store and return it. Also, you didn’t specify that you wanted the outline super thin, and I doubt that he could even have made it any thinner.

You’re right though. Find a better tattooist for your next one.

Will look at the other stuff later when I have the time, but I wanted to clarify one thing because I was looking at the screencap I made, specifically the “I don’t even..” right banner.

My main issue is the useless waste of space that are the headers and footers in this forum. There’s just far too much whitespace in everything. Obviously it’s designed for fat fingers on tiny screens, but that makes for an absolute rubbish viewing experience on normal screens. My main problem is with the top 34% of the screen that’s being used for, let’s be real, two lines of text. If they were just actual two lines of text, in a similar font and size (perhaps the thread name could be a size bigger) as the rest of the forum, you’d be using the full 66% of the resolution on content. Obviously scrolling down past the header shows more content, but everything in the stylesheet is just too…. fat. Except for the text for the content… that’s too small.

I don’t particularly mind the right banner with the recent replies and members stuff. All my monitors are widescreen, so this area is best spent on semi-static stuff like that. The central main column of content looks good and fits well inbetween the left menu and the right banner.
That being said, the right banner is pretty useless when it’s empty, which it is every time you scroll down just a bit.
Ideally, I would love it if the right banner would scroll down to it’s own bottom when scrolling down, but stop there (with the center main content area scrolling further), and then would scroll back up to top straight away when you scroll up. That would keep the banner mostly legible at all times, and would make for quick access to other stuff and other threads and whatnot, without having to scroll all the way back to the top of the thread. I’ve seen this behavior in other places, like Facebook, but I don’t know if it’s actually something that is simple to do.
Second best thing would be for it to just have it’s own scroll bar when it gets long enough to go past one screen, and keep the scrolling for the center column within that area.

I changed my settings but I still get a shit ton of emails

If you click the link in those emails you’ll see that the notifications don’t actually come from this server, but a backup one, so the settings here have no effect on those emails.

It does appear that Turbo has killed that server now though, so hopefully the notifications are no more 🙂

Can there just be a button for new posts? If you hit whats new you have to wade through a bunch of crap like littlesussietits uploaded a picture and longdongdude just signed up.

Actually, if you click All members and then change the dropdown from Everything to Replies, the What’s New button only shows you a list of every reply made to every thread in here, but it’s a piss-poor way to get an overview of what’s been happening since you were gone.
The VB forum solution was perfect. It just showed a list of all the threads that had any unread posts, with a separator to indicate the posts which are new since your last visit.

This forum actually doesn’t have any way for you to see which threads you’ve read and which are unread, which is one of the most important part of a forum’s function.

Another ‘bug’.

When you click the link in the notifications emails, or one of the links in the Recent Replies banner up top, the system actually doesn’t take you to the very top of that message. This means that a short message actually disappears up the top of the screen. Took me a while to realize what was going one, since the message I clicked always came up empty.

Considering that the date and action bar is the start of any given post, and actually includes the post ID link, this is pretty weird behavior.
