DazzleHP Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 [small Request] I know you're busy at the moment but i really think this will put a frosty glaze on your iced bun - a full sized preview option! Maybe have it open in your default browser with some generic text so we can see what it looks like. At the moment we have to actually set it as our own tag, boot GameEx then refresh our profile page. If you're creating a particularly complicated tag with many layers it can get a bit tiresome. I know we can see a preview in the plugin config but it's tiny! This is when you tell me it's already available and i missed it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adultery Posted July 18, 2014 Author Share Posted July 18, 2014 Hate to tell you, but you're right, you missed it... Haha! Click on the preview image in the plugin configuration and it opens a full size preview. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Click on the preview image in the plugin configuration and it opens a full size preview. GAHHHHHHHHHHHH i tried in an earlier incarnation, i just didn't think to try it again well in that case, i think this plugin is just amazing! The public will no doubt gobble it up like crazy i'm sure more than a few have been wondering why some of us have personalised tags 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 I said it before, but I will say it again. This is one of the coolest things on the forum. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DazzleHP Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 When can we expect to donate user themes? I have some in the running, but i scrutinize myself far too much so i'm wondering if i should just hurry up or take my time? I'm asking because i want to do what i can with this project - i absolutely love it and i know that not everyone is adept at digital artistry and so would like to see a nice selection available to those users Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adultery Posted July 19, 2014 Author Share Posted July 19, 2014 I haven't started it yet... I mean the theme database is done and the download page is scraping it already, but I need to make the actual upload page and a portal where users can manage their theme uploads, and hook them into your control panel. I can totally put them in manually if you do some with no hassle, it's really just the self service end of it that isn't ready. To be honest it's probably a weekend job, as in it well take a couple days. It's next in line but I have a ton of work that was dumped on me at the office right now, so I'm not sure when I'll get to it. Sooner than later though.

Adultery Posted July 19, 2014 Author Share Posted July 19, 2014 Yeah I'm sorry, I ended up working on fixing bugs and a few other side things when I should have been working on that. Like I said though, if you finish one and want me to add it, it's really no problem at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Is there any way to downsize my fonts? It seems all of them are larger than they should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adultery Posted July 19, 2014 Author Share Posted July 19, 2014 Not at the present time, but I may add that later. Some fonts just plain don't play nice with your tag, they're all 18pt hard coded (or maybe it's 14pt) but apparently not all fonts are the same size... Some are wider, some taller... I will probably add a setting in the form of large, small, and medium but I doubt I'll code in for specific sizes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DazzleHP Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Is there any way to downsize my fonts? It seems all of them are larger than they should be.Holy cheezums! That's one effin big font lol But yeh i understand where Adultery is coming from. You're a theme designer so you must know by now that font sizes don't mean shit anything i wish there was some sort of standard but there just doesn't seem to be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 It seems to be hit or miss (more miss) for me as these lately. Some control is better than no control I guess. The fonts are all TTF so you would think that they would scale rougly the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Tried Arcadeclassic.ttf and now it looks horrid and illegible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I tried the Action Man.ttf and here is what the Tag Preview looks like:This is acceptible to me. Next is what actually shows in the forums and on the Game Tagger CP:It is as if the colors are being stripped and the natural boldness of the text is being stripped. Not entirely sure why this is.

Adultery Posted July 20, 2014 Author Share Posted July 20, 2014 It's falling back to the default black outline color and white fill color. I must have a bug in there, but I don't know why it would only seemingly show on your tag and not everyone else's... If you could zip me up that theme so I can have a go at it I can fix it. I don't have the laptop handy but I will have a look at it. Is it an alpha color or html? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adultery Posted July 20, 2014 Author Share Posted July 20, 2014 It seems to at least be the correct font, right? Can I get your plugin log too please buddy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adultery Posted July 20, 2014 Author Share Posted July 20, 2014 If youre using alpha color, could you try the html variant or vice versa just to test? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draco1962 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Not sure how/where to insert the line fo rthe alpha color. Right now just using html. Here is the theme. I am using the Action Man font. I included some of the other fonts I had tested with very mixed results as mentioned previously.Pac-Man.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adultery Posted July 20, 2014 Author Share Posted July 20, 2014 Can you try this one Drac and see if it works?
