[Suggestion] Profile Funtion?

[Kira]

Well, I've thought about that many people like to write in their own font, color etc. and it's sometimes irretating to type it or ctrl+c then ctrl+v it. SO can't you make a script that gives you the choice, in your profile, to choose what color, font etc. you want the text to be?

that is a good idia but let's see what admins have to say

I think someone asked this once...and if I remeber right...the asnwer was you can't do it. Although it would be nice. =\

yah, the admins rejected the hack last time it came up
although it would really rock XD

 

[Kira]

I've been to forums Linky Link not worky rule breaky Where that hack worked perfectly OK, and everyody was happy!

 

[Lil' Schu]

Well, maybe it is possible now. We'll have to wait for the admins to come to check this out. ^_^;

 

[Kira]

I hope it will be soon! I can't wait for this funtion if it turns real O.o

 

[Arcanine]

The reason why it was turned down is because... Not everyone might have the font you're using. And then the color might now show up good on all layouts (go look at some of the members that post dark blue, look at them on like the MM layout). So that's why it was turned down before (and it might mess up like the glow hack does).

 

[Kylie-chan]

I often wished that. ;-; It would save so much time!

 

[Cherrim]

Wasn't there a hack that made it so everyone can choose the default format of their own posts? o_O I seem to recall something like that and it only being turned down because there were never any admins on with FTP access. XP I could be making this up, though. XD;

 

[EvIL_CAjUN_CHIkIN]

That would be aweosme to be able to do it in a different font and schtuff. But hat would probably be hard to do.....

*shakes head in disbelief* Did nobody hear what I said last time?

If the font you're using isn't on the available choice of fonts for PC, then it won't be parsed. If the colours clash with other layouts, that doesn't change anything. I see people's colours clashing all the time. In addition to that, if the glow "hack" (which is actually a simple BB code added in the Admin CP) messes up, then why do we still have it?

Aye. Feel like I'm talking to a brick wall here. @_@;

and you probably will continue talking to a brick wall as nothing will probably be implimented now or in the future...

eh... even having just a select amount of fonts/colors to set as default would be good, I mean, you could always just support the default of default fonts in most supported os'es, even 3.11, XD. not like I post in a custom font set or anything but it would be nice to do once in a while without ctrl + v all the time...

freaking brick walls rule... *runs into brick wall*

 

[Kira]

I thought maybe only a font chooser, A font can't mess up if you choose from the PC "gallery"

 

[Jolty-kun]

I say no XP, just for one simple reason, you want your font a different style?, do it yourself, you can expect a profile function to do it for you, thatd just be kinda lazy =|

 

[Kira]

It's easier as a function, that's all xD

 

[Kipkip]

I say no to different fonts and colors. I made a thread about that. Anyway, I use something called a Linux distribution. Linux distributions doesn't come pre-installed with some of the fonts that Windows has because of copyright issues. If someone chooses to use one of those fonts, I will get something that looks screwed up and unreadable. I also dislike colors because the color people choose is unreadable on some layouts. So making it easier doesn't make people who can't read the fonts any happier. :D -> :(

I do concur, but many people (including myself, up until recently) use font and colour tags to make their posts look more decorative anyway, so installing this hack would simply make it much easier for those people.

OTOH, a User CP option that allows you to strip certain tags whilst browsing would be nice. Hm?

 

[Kira]

That's what I mean, people are using fonts, colors etc. WHy not make it easier?

(Sidenote: Get Windows. It >Linux anyday)

 

[Pazuzu]

Would be no problem if you would use the fonts the WYSIWYG editor offsers anyway o.o
