Title: Where is the Red Dot? Edit: LOCATED!
Post by: mstevens on May 08, 2008, 06:48:17 PM
I miss the familiar red dot from TOB staring me in the face while I read.

It's no longer over there, and it doesn't seem to have found its way here. They didn't... KILL it, did they?!


Edit: It appears as if one of the Flounders has had the red dot in safekeeping!

I can rest easy tonight.

Wasn't it part of the sale?  I'd figure it to be Intellectual Property relinquished in the sale and currently in use elsewhere.  /shrug

So, you're saying it hasn't been killed - it's been kidnapped?!

There is one little artifact that is on all pages that is similar in elusiveness to the dot, but so far, no-one has commented on it...

sure you did...

but yep, I was too lazy to take it out after adding the logo, so I just shrunk it and changed the color in case we wanted it back.

hint - the text is the same color as the background, so you can't see it without doing a little work...

Weird.  Works for me in IE 6 - try doing a ctrl+a on the page, see if it gets highlighted?


Title: Re: Where is the Red Dot?

That works.

Yes, that has always worked (I knew it was there, I made it), but I was surprised people could see the text without highlighting it.
