I'm going to take the site down in a few hours for major open heart surgery.
Changes involve a ton of scary database work and migration. It all works on my dev server but may break on the live server.
Watch for updates at my twitter account. See you in a bit ^^

I always like this actually, because when sites come back up they usually have tnos of great content. Crazy stuff always happens when sites go down.

Agreed regarding the ease of reading comments in the previous iteration.

I honestly like this better, that way we dont have to put @someone before we comment. I think there is too much info on each line though.. maybe if the scale of the avatars was smaller. Lets see what Danny rolls out before we disect it completely? Lol.

That was intentional. Does it look odd?

@etherlite: You're right, I was looking at the registration dates. Oops.
@Danny: It does look a bit out of place. The light grey is very hard to see, and the date itself seems to be placed oddly in the comment. (maybe that's one of those Safari bugs?)

I think the font colour is too similar to the background colour - need to stretch my eyes to read the post ID and posting time >_<
I'd suggest to give more contrast, perhaps grayer colour will do? ^^

登録日: 2007/09/30 17:43
Me thinks there's too much personal info about each poster (is the hour and minute of registration necessary ^^;?), and that makes it hard to find the actual comment posted...
And the time and date of the posted comment also seems to break in between the comment itself. is that intentional too? oO

Danny, personal comment archive sequence seems slightly out of whack. Some of my most recent post start on page 5. New additional post seem to sequence properly though.

This was because I merged two databases together and am currently sorting by id instead of date. Will think about how to handle this problem.

i like how our avatar looks bigger now in the news items' comments. ^_^
but the page looks longer and harder to read. may i suggest that our comments appear on the right side of our avatar? this will shorten the page and make comments easier to view. ^^;
Student
登録日: 2007/09/24 21:08
Yup i agree that the page has become much too long to hande. Perhaps making the avatar big but making the text smaller will do the job? D:
Good luck on finishing on the makeover of the website ^^

The site is looking better and better by the minute; just that the length of the pages surprised me a little; I really thought there were that many comments. I'm fine with the avatar any way it is, though.

a comment link below the comments will be good.
some would tend to read everything before making a comment.

No wonder the site was down earlier. I'm seeing a lot of changes here and there. Also, the site seems to be loading a bit slower compared to before. Might wanna check on that. ^^

nee, danny, it really getting slower to open your site, is it because of the database? and btw, the newest news item (fuujin) didn't show up in the RSS feed, i already reloaded it but it didn't show up, and also, the RSS feed is getting really long, i think it was half of today's length before

On another note, just so Danny knows it: my Google Reader just collected all Danny Choo's News Items since "Girls be young" as new. 25+ news items.
They are all with today's date, on 9:36 in the morning.
Must have something to do with the server reset.
I was like WOW, Danny shure posted tons of stuff today. But then I noticed I had already read all of them.. awwww

danny, maybe u can come out with a menu of shortcut link "Bugs" so its easier to access
there u can put a put a list of bugs and mark which is fixed and their work arounds ...bla bla bla
