    ITT: Eh, not a new problem, buuut...

    Have you noticed that on Generation InVerse (and possibly other themes with similarly-styled quote boxes), trying to nest quotes within each other completely destroys PC's forum layout? I've noticed it most while in PMs, but it hasn't really bothered me for the most part. The more quotes you nest, the worse it gets XD

    I wonder where this text will spill

    And nowwww this text is out of the quotes, but it's spilling out to wherever it wants to. Switch your theme to Generation InVerse to see what I mean, I guess. Hopefully it's not just me. Not only is this text out of the quote box it's designated in, but it's also bypassed five other quote boxes, the normal textarea, the content div, and is now probably in the page background.

    Ewww, not to mention on the Top Dog (and pretty much most of them) it's like an optical illusion. Are the boxes going in, or out..? o.0

    Oh, just to mention, most of the time it isn't so nice, like how I made it up there. Sometimes the whole layout goes haywire and images go everywhere, but I haven't found a way to replicate it yet. I'll take a screenshot the next time it happens, though. But, I think the simplest solution is just to revert to normal, functional quote boxes like other themes. The white-on-grey is really hard to read sometimes, especially with the small font (that's italicized for extra pain), and the scrollbar is more of a hindrance than anything since it limits the amount of text we can view at a time (like when you're looking at an RMT and the edits are in bold) and I can never get it to scroll just where I want.

    They go out, the dead center is the first quote line.

    I think he's referring to the shading on the boxes - they're either sunken into the page, or popping out of the page, looking at those.
     
    Er, is there anyway to make each subsequently nested quote box be darker by two shades as you go in or something?
