Sandra currently the schemes will be staying as they are. I know it's a big change and that no one likes change but honestly once you get used to it I think this scheme is much easier to read from. I'm not sure why you have to lean back to read everything, the point of the scheme is that it should fit perfectly now so you don't need to struggle with reading. It's much easier to look at the board on your phone as well. Maybe you could send us a screencap, maybe how you see the board is different to how we do?

eta: I don't know if it's useful to you Sandra but contributors also have an option to get a custom scheme made for them as well. Would certain colours and the such make it easier for you to see the schemes?

I like it on my phone, severely dislike it on my computer because I hate having to read massively wide blocks of text on the main page. But I guess I'll have to deal. At least it adjusts to the size of the window and I can choose to not go full screen. That works!

^ That's the beauty of these new schemes, they're all 100% adaptable to what size resolution/device you're using. We're not using fixed widths anymore and Chrissie has done a lot of work to make them user friendly for everyone.

While I'm at it, what is notes? It says I have 0 new messages and 1 new note since my last visit. Can I see notes? Is it a staff thing? I'm confused. XD

I was trying to upload an image for Luca in SvB, and I got this message:

How about you dont make browser full screen width? You can actually, by reducing its width, trigger the mobile layout on the laptop... I keep doing "full size > small size > full size" on the laptop when I look at the layout and do work with it :-p (certainly much simpler than always looking at the phone, then comp, then phone :-p)

I understand if it's been done for a reason, just looks a little unusual to have text/images floating halfway.
Actually not at this point, no. The post layout is purely divs now and making anything properly stick to the bottom with how it's currently done is hard. It's on my list for some time in the future just cuz I'm a friggin perfectionist. But nothing that has priority. I'd prefer having it stick to the bottom as well, but there's some tricky arrangements in the coding of the current postbit to make it look like it does and work on the phone as well as on the bigger screens. Since it works (and didn't actually stick to the bottom on MS either) it's just not something I find really needs to be done right now.

If you go into the RPG tab, and manage characters you can click on your notes on the right hand side.

Sorry, Bonnie! It should be set to the right thing now. Please try again!

Notes is basically a native messaging system built for the RPG Bios. YOu could basically take over a char from another player and get their complete bunch of notes with it. Also, all RPG Managers can see the notes for their rpgs / characters, so this is to ensure someone getting to your concerns fast / faster than when sending it to a single person through PMs.

Head over to Your Biography Page and you should find the "View Notes" links there.

ETA: Mel was faster

That's understandable, I appreciate you and Vicky replying though, loving that the RPG hack has come to WiB and congrats on your staff promotion Chrissie.
