Japanese hardware sales, Aug. 16 - Aug. 22: Remembrance edition

@gevenstaines
You know, Joystiq could also just make the FONT green or red.
WE JUST NEED MORE COLOR IN OUR LIFE!!!

@gevenstaines

Exactly. WTF. I was expecting our old friends to return. :(

@vmenge

Damn you!

@Fallow

Bold stuff with words is better but I reckon bold the lines that are up only that way u can see the good stuff.

@DarkTwisted

I mean I know it "went rogue". But it's heavily requested and can't be too hard to put some new coloured arrows in could it?

@PR0F3TA

true story, i could not tell the diff between the old arrows. I'm color blind with red and green i cant distinguish them sometimes. Makes BFBC that much frustrating

@Bloodyghost
In post-bubble Japan, hardware sales down YOU!

@sonicspike41

Also, by the way, I'm not trying to be rude or say that I'm only going to be happy if you switch back. Whatever works and easily conveys the message is fine with me.

@sonicspike41 I have the solution for them:


(html)
(head)
(style)
(!--
.down_arrow {
font-size: 0px; line-height: 0%; width: 0px;
border-top: 15px solid #ff0000;
border-left: 10px solid #fff;
border-right: 10px solid #fff;
}


.up_arrow {
font-size: 0px; line-height: 0px; width: 0px;
vertical-align: top;
border-left: 10px solid #fff;
border-right: 10px solid #fff;
border-bottom: 15px solid #00ff00;
}
.lr_arrow {
font-size: 0px; line-height: 0px; width: 0px;
border-top: 10px solid #fff;
border-bottom: 10px solid #fff;
border-right: 15px solid #0000ff;
border-left: 15px solid #0000ff;
}

This is a modified version of the css arrows from www.avn8.com/?p=42 I have modified somewhat to get it to align properly.. Feel free to use this if its easy to implement its just some basic css obviously the ( and ) brackets need to be changed to the triangular version brackets, I didnt do that because I figured they would screw with the code of the site

@McDuckScrooged Also just to add this is why I love vim..

If your running vim to change arrows,

:%s/(//g

job done :)

@McDuckScrooged This is just a test

@BigFat IsBack

That's the point of CSS though, for greater control of HTML.

@BigFat IsBack

Almost all modern browsers (IE, Firefox, Safari, Opera, Chrome) support CSS 2.1 and pass the ACID2 test.

The only real problem is IE6, which is about 17% of all internet users, and is usually forced upon people by old fashioned companies who refuse to make the switch. Next would be IE7 which is a lot better, but not perfect. Lucky us IE7 is only about 12% of the current internet browsers.

True, I did learn a little bit of css, and it did indeed help, but then after that browser support became an issue where I would have a site that looked a mess in firefox but normal in IE lol it was always one problem after the next with web programing in general.

@pibs change the angled brackets to ( and ) respectively.. the site interprets the tags.

@pibs

Or use ampersand codes.

@Rikimaru

I wouldn't count Firefox 4 against them since it's still a beta.

I don't have Opera installed but it looks and works fine in Chrome, Safari, and the latest stable release of Firefox for me. The last post with a video was acting weird, but all the others I tried were fine.

@Rikimaru

Yeah Chrome works fine for me.

@Foetoid Google Chrome works fine, Chromium is broken. The comments dont appear on chromium when there is a flash video.

Chromium is the completely open source build of Chrome / actual project behind chrome.

If there are identical problem in a lot of browsers I assume it is site's fault.
