I don't know, it looks very early '90s to me. And I can't change the font size with ctrl + scroll.

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:54 (seventeen years ago) link

Whoah, I think they already changed the font since the first time I looked at it.

― n/a (n/a), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:54 (seventeen years ago) link

they did. it's better but still odd.

― JuliaA (JuliaA), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 19:58 (seventeen years ago) link

Try Ctrl and "-" or "+" to change the font size. Worked for me.

Hmmm, not working for me.

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:05 (seventeen years ago) link

That's a browser command, it will change the text size on every web page you visit.

User Name (email address):

BOTH? NEITHER? w/ parens??

I'm not ready for that jelly.

Username=email address is what I'm getting out of that.

I like this Sandbox ILX better. It looks exactly like Ye Olde ILX, so the only advantage to the new one, as I can see it, is the archives. Which really aren't all that important on a day-to-day basis.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:20 (seventeen years ago) link

archives and "improved security" (and eventual bandwidth)

But I agree, I like the sandbox better.

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:22 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't care about security. The new ILX hurts my eyes.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:24 (seventeen years ago) link

As I said on the I Love X thread: New board has un-American style of showing dates!

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:25 (seventeen years ago) link

That was a dumb way of saying that.

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:26 (seventeen years ago) link

In ILX2, dates show you!

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:27 (seventeen years ago) link

That's probably just because the Preferences haven't been tricked out yet.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:27 (seventeen years ago) link

Why the hate for BBCODE?

― Jeff... (Jeff...), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:27 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't understand what is un-American about it.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:27 (seventeen years ago) link

the current style is fine for everyone

― Del Monte Young (ex machina), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:28 (seventeen years ago) link

Wait! I swear a little while ago it said 21 February, 2007!

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:29 (seventeen years ago) link

What's up with no xpost warnings?

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:30 (seventeen years ago) link

More important than all this board nonsense:

REMIND ME AGAIN WHO'S GOING TO BE AT GALWAY ARMS TONIGHT?

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:32 (seventeen years ago) link

I AM.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:32 (seventeen years ago) link

I only hate BBCODE because HTML is ingrained in me now.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:33 (seventeen years ago) link

Yes.

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:34 (seventeen years ago) link

if we're only allowed bbcode, how does noise board work anymore?

― lavender mofo (kenan), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:35 (seventeen years ago) link

I like bbcode. Html requires too much shifting.

― Jeff... (Jeff...), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:36 (seventeen years ago) link

dan, i'm about 90% positive i won't be able to make it friday as i seem to have a problem with my calendar reading comprehension skills. but fake fictions, if you're playing around or after 11-ish i'll be at ronnys.

― chicago kevin is still a little dizzy (chicago kevin), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:44 (seventeen years ago) link

I am kind of cute in that first picture.

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:53 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, it's one of your better ones.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 20:54 (seventeen years ago) link

I kind of want to do me in that picture. Hell, I think I will go ahead and do me now IRL.

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 21:01 (seventeen years ago) link

"I mean, the fucking thing has jalapeños on it, bro," Cook added. "Jalapeños."

― lavender mofo (kenan), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 21:11 (seventeen years ago) link

struck out? did you shoot yourself down and go home with someone else?

― chicago kevin is still a little dizzy (chicago kevin), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 21:11 (seventeen years ago) link

Somehow word got out to the left hand, and there was a fite.

― lavender mofo (kenan), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 21:13 (seventeen years ago) link

It's time to buy yourself some flowers, man.

― lavender mofo (kenan), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 21:14 (seventeen years ago) link

I've never actually seen Dane Cook. Where do people see him?

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 21:15 (seventeen years ago) link

sometimes i see him in my nightmares, and i wake up screaming.

leaning against the mens room door on interstate rest stops, usually.

This is the longest day ever.

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 21:36 (seventeen years ago) link

So I have onion powder and garlic powder -- indispensible!
I have cheese powder and mushroom powder for when the situation calls for those.
I even have wasabi powder.

WHERE IS MY BACON POWDER. I want someone to invent powdered bacon so I can add it to all kinds of things.

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 21:54 (seventeen years ago) link

I know there's a nuILX but I can't say goodbye just yet.

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 21:54 (seventeen years ago) link

bacon bits + two sheets of wax paper + rolling pin = bacon powder.
