[22:02] <Kippy> So what's the deal with the new main page layout? I don't like it
[22:05] <Kippy> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ln19GPOCDnY
[22:05] <snerk> You've Redecorated.... I Dont Like It.
[22:05] <T_Karras> it looks different from Wikipedia. More Web 2.0ey
[22:05] <Kippy> Fuck Web 2.0
[22:05] <SG1|Hereish> Instead of the featured article taking up full width at the top, maybe put it back in the same row as the news.
[22:06] <Kippy> Yeah, it's actually just the sections with which I have a problem
[22:08] <SG1|Hereish> FA/news on the first row, DYK/on this day on the second, featured picture taking up the third, sexy lists/be a writer on the fourth, sister projects/other languages on the fifth, and social media taking up the bottom.
[22:08] <SG1|Hereish> And the Uncyclomedia Foundation wikis being moved to the bottom of the sister projects.
[22:08] <Kippy> In other words, exactly as we had it before
[22:08] <SG1|Hereish> Ya.
[22:11] <SG1|Hereish> Also it might be cool to stretch the news and maybe a few other sections to two rows.
[22:12] <SG1|Hereish> https://i.gyazo.com/7c23f1e8a1a3226833e499899c36d00e.png
[22:12] <SG1|Hereish> We could easily fit an entire section in this bit.
[22:26] <dill_weed> well ive put some effort into reducing the amount of whitespace in the site
[22:26] <dill_weed> the front page i mean
[22:26] <dill_weed> SG1|Hereish, https://i.gyazo.com/79655019889aa3e93a7c40a22fe267c2.png
[22:26] <dill_weed> this is what it looks like for me
[22:28] <dill_weed> i put the sections where they are based on a 16:9 monitor thing
[22:28] <dill_weed> cus those are the most popular monitor ratio i think
[22:28] <dill_weed> its supposed to collapse into a single column once it goes below a certain width
[22:29] <dill_weed> also Kippy what dontchu like about it
[22:30] <Kippy> I don't like the FA section taking up the entire page. It makes it look stretched out, and I prefer UnNews being up top and front
[22:30] <Kippy> Don't put UnNews at the back of the bus
[22:30] <dill_weed> ehhhh youll get used to it dawg
[22:30] <Kippy> To shit I will
[22:31] <dill_weed> it seems to be based on 16:9 monitors
[22:32] <Kippy> It STINKS!
[22:32] <Kippy> It STINKS!
[22:32] <Kippy> It STINKS!
[22:32] <dill_weed> its the future babeee
[22:32] <dill_weed> from what i know of web design
[22:33] <dill_weed> users always complain when changes are made
[22:33] <dill_weed> then they get used to the change
[22:33] <Kippy> To shit I will
[22:33] <dill_weed> then they complain about the new changes
[22:34] <dill_weed> well im proud of these changest
[22:34] <Kippy> Don't be surprised if I bitch about it again in the future
[22:35] <Kippy> It doesn't even look like Wikipedia anymore
[22:35] <dill_weed> yeah we're our own thing
[22:35] <dill_weed> and this reflects that
[22:35] <dill_weed> its got the je ne se quois of wikipedia
[22:35] <Kippy> I still prefer UnNews up top
[22:36] <dill_weed> right in the middle isnt too bad

...

[17:02] <+Zombiebaron> wtf is this layout
[17:03] <+Zombiebaron> i don't wanna start another vote that dill's gonna take personally but holy shit
[17:08] <SG1|Hereish> Kippy and I tried explaining that having the featured article section take up full width was poor web design, and that flip-flopping between different widths instead of keeping everything consistent was flat-out disorienting, but yeah... what you said.
[17:09] <+Zombiebaron> honestly we should have made the community vote on it
[17:09] <+Zombiebaron> when he came to me on discord and asked if he could update the main page and showed me a concept i thought it was just the header at the very top
[17:14] <SG1|Hereish> I think dill_weed's argument is that less work needs to be done to keep the sections from going wonky on higher resolution displays, and also something something people not liking change initially but we'll all get used to it.
[17:15] <+Zombiebaron> they overlap on my screen
[17:15] <+Zombiebaron> lets see if i can figure out how to upload a screencap
[17:16] <SG1|Hereish> What browser are you using?
[17:16] <+Zombiebaron> Camino 1.6.11
[17:16] <+Zombiebaron> on an iBook G4 running MacOSX 10.3.9
[17:27] <+Zombiebaron> http://images.uncyclomedia.co/uncyclopedia/en/6/6b/MainPageShittyCamino.jpg
[17:27] <SG1|Hereish> Is your browser zoomed in, by any chance?
[17:27] <+Zombiebaron> no that's the size of my screen
[17:30] <SG1|Hereish> Looks like it's Camino not supporting flex.
[17:31] <+Zombiebaron> can you show me what it looks like for you
[17:31] <SG1|Hereish> https://i.gyazo.com/8a9f9843862e88b20f192bf14bec0957.png
[17:32] <+Zombiebaron> wow
[17:32] <+Zombiebaron> how did we let this happen

...

[00:50] <dill_weed> also kip doesnt like the new main page
[00:51] <dill_weed> he says hes let it go but you know
[00:55] <dill_weed> well he says its just he likes the old look and doesnt like the new look
[01:05] <dill_weed> well change is hard
[01:05] <dill_weed> whenever im dealing with something awful i just think "dont worry ill get used to it"
[01:10] <dill_weed> i say dont worry ill get used to it
