Project "ATS Dark Matter" -- The Evolution Continues...

Has anyone been using what is possibly the coolest new feature? It's linked on the new board home page:
Most recent 20 posts
It shows the actual full-posts, of the most recently received posts.

Try it, you'll like it.

Maybe it works, but I can't see it now.

I can't see it in IE7 and Opera, I see it with Firefox.

Sure have, and I find the "Grouping" functions quite useful as well.

kudos.

Sorry, I rarely use the home page, I enter directly to MyATS.

Still the same thing here just a refesh.

I do like the recent 20 pots feature though but these dark colors are hard on my eys, I am getting to old to look at things so dark


Again me thinks this is a conspiracy against us old foggies on ATS to make us leave

The color option is still not working for me either SO, and I did check for that "user theme" cookie to delete it, but never found it. Pretty sure there is no such cookie getting written to my system, unless it's going somewhere other than the temporary internet files directory. So that means I'm stuck on "Light"- grr, the very option I don't want...

That feature is awesome. I, too, enter into myATS first ... but when I'm looking for a new discussion I hit the home page. That is a great way to scan some text for all those posts ... any chance of maybe upping it to 30 or 50? Maybe just having the first 2 or 3 lines of a post instead to save space? That would be pretty cool as I really like the idea.

Does your browser support _javascript? Just an idea...

If you i.e. are using FireFox with the extension called Noscript, you'll need to allow www.abovetopsecret.com... to use scripts. I'm not 100% sure if it will work for the "light-switch", but give it a shot. Maybe try if it works when using a different browser...

I like it, but on the "post reply" page there is some text on the left that is illegible, but I assume that will be fixed in time.

When I can no see some of the text I found that if you hight light you can see everything.

It doesn't bother me to do that, it works for me.

The customize button works for me - but 'dark' shows light on gray (my preference). ...If I change it back (dark to light, back to dark), the change doesn't take effect until I go somewhere else, then return.

The customize button show now be functioning correctly for everyone.

Yes, it works!!!

Thanks, that was a difficult one to solve.

Edit: confirmed, it works in IE7 and Opera, all is OK.

Yeah I used it and I likey.

Another thing that I like is the way you colored the text in the Light Customization mode.

All my issues with the design, save for one, have been eliminated. That is of course the off center appearance I posted about earlier. If this isn't fixable that's ok, but if there is a way for me to center it myself with greasemonkey, then anyone who knows how to, please U2U me.

Oooh it's all so pretty.
