lukeskywalker1 Posted July 14, 2005 Posted July 14, 2005 I just downloaded Firefox earlier today. Now the post box where you type your message is only have the size its supposed to be. The purple background extends to the normal position in Internet Explorer, while the grey typing area is only half the size. Any help? EDIT: It still works fine with Internet Explorer.
TheMadDoofer Posted July 14, 2005 Posted July 14, 2005 I have that problem, but it really doesn't make any difference.
lukeskywalker1 Posted July 14, 2005 Author Posted July 14, 2005 Maybe the new forum upgrade will fix it.
ZBomber Posted July 14, 2005 Posted July 14, 2005 No, I think it's Firefox's fault, not the forums. It's not that big a deal, it doesn't affect your actual post.
ChAiNz.2da Posted July 14, 2005 Posted July 14, 2005 Yah, the window size shocked me too, but you get used to it. Plus, it's a small price to pay seeing as all the "fun" toys Firefox enables you to have via themes & extensions (not to mention the added security)... You will lose the ability to see name glows however, but big whoop IMO Like TheMadDoofer & ZBomber said, it won't affect your actual posts...
lukeskywalker1 Posted July 14, 2005 Author Posted July 14, 2005 I didn't even notice the glows disapearing. But yeah, I like the extensions, such as the ad blocker, which is doing a pretty good job. And the ability to use my Star Downloader is handy also. I love my metallic theme.

IE sucks)
lukeskywalker1 Posted July 14, 2005 Author Posted July 14, 2005 You don't like the name glow? You know you could disable it in the options anyways...
Joshi Posted July 14, 2005 Posted July 14, 2005 Meh, never really thought about it too much to actually fix it in my options, but the fact that Firefox gets rid of it for me anyway is nice. And no, I don't like them, they look tacky, no matter what colour.
TheMadDoofer Posted July 14, 2005 Posted July 14, 2005 Firefox also loads LF much faster for me than IE.
lukeskywalker1 Posted July 14, 2005 Author Posted July 14, 2005 I like the glow. I think FireFox uses its cache a lot better than IE, so therefore websites load up faster. Plus, if you didn't know LF is on a new server, so now its faster than ever!
Kuuki Posted July 19, 2005 Posted July 19, 2005 yeah, i noticed that when i switched to firefox after a while you dont really care to notice anymore crap i cant even think posting with a text box as wide as the gray area
