Create a game screen messed up..

Evil Pope · Post by **Evil Pope** » Fri Jun 30, 2006 6:33 pm

I don't know if this is supposed to be like this, but I know it wasn't before.. And I don't know if it's just me or not.. But the Create a game screen is sort of odd..

Its been bothering me for a while, and I figured i'd bring it up..

I think I see your problem.

The clue is at the top of the screen where it says "Microsoft Internet Explorer"

Would that be caused by Microsoft internet explorer? It was fine before, and i've always used it..

You could try holding ctrl+shift and clicking the refresh button while on the start a game screen. This might help if it's being caused by a cached stylesheet or something.

Other than that I don't know, other than that it works fine on firefox.

I've the same thing with I.E., but it doesn't matter--I use mozilla for my games (greasemonkey), but I.E. for browsing the forums.

I use firefox for the games, and another firefox tab for the forums, much more efficient.

I prefer I.E. for forums...I need many more windows open at once for all that I'm doing. And I'm really just a being of habit. Took me forever to give up Netscape and go on to I.E. I sure as hell am not going to give up I.E. without a fight!

I've had firefox downloaded, but i've gotten used to IE, and like andy, I don't want to give it up, so I don't use firefox often(I've planned on downloading the greasemonkey thing,but never got around to it).. But, I went onto there and it was fine..

I use IE and it comes up like that too. Kinda annoying, so now i just join games, not create.

For this thing, how about a droplist that can load the mini version of the selected map, and with some needed warnings, like "map not recommended for no card games" for the Chariot map? Maybe a link to the normal sized map, too.

Has anyone still experienced the funny layout after trying this? Because a refresh should solve the problem.

I still have the funny layout, after refreshing. I thought it was meant to be like that. It only happened since the last map additions I think.
