Each individual Wii or DS game that goes online so far, yes.

Good God.

Okay, so what's going on here concerning this? Are you trying to figure out a way to have all this information available for viewing and where to put all this info? What else will you do with the codes?

I guess so! I just found that out but! Yeah! This is pretty terrible news!

Such a Lust for Revenge! May 25, 2007 07:38 PM

You'll have to excuse me for my SHOCK. You see, I'm lucky if I get the chance to play with an N64 in this fucking country. Forget Wii.

FatsDomino May 25, 2007 07:57 PM

See, the huge problem with Friend Codes is you can put them whereever you like but unlike the Microsoft and Sony solutions you really have no way of confirming anyone has you in their list except through external communication or by accident. Actually that's not quite true. The Wii system code has a sort of confirmation to it but no word if Wii game Friend Codes act the same. More than likely they act just like DS Friend Codes. Shitty.

Just wanted to say that the video game forums look a lot better now with the new console specific icons. The old one's were, frankly, crap, so seing that you guys pulled this off in the end makes it all good. Keep up the good work!

FatsDomino May 25, 2007 08:53 PM

Frankly, they were temp icons because, get this, they were temp icons. =/

But yeah Paco's a great graphic designer.

Ok, I just gave you guys a compliment and you get grumpy. Wow.

FatsDomino May 25, 2007 09:54 PM

Yes, because everyone is so demanding. It all has to be perfect the first time. ROAR! >=U

Sword Familiar May 25, 2007 10:06 PM

Well, as long as you keep up the good work. I'll try to be a bit more subtle next time. It's just that the previous icons, temp or not, really were an eye sore and didn't go with the overall design at all. Just wanted to show my appreciation on the improvement, that's all. <:\/

RABicle May 26, 2007 08:22 AM

What the fuck? These new icons are a fucking joke, I cant even read them. Speaking of which, why should I have to read an icon in the first place? What maggot did this?

DS is the only slightly acceptable one, oh and General.

Here's a fucken idea: Just use the real console logos. Everyone knows the Xbox, Dreamcast, Playstation, Gamecube, Super Nintendo, DS etc. logos when they see them.

Such a Lust for Revenge! May 26, 2007 08:28 AM

Just breath deeply and relax, bottlenose. And it's good to hear words of encouragement, Familiar. These fuckers put in some good time and effort.

Get glasses.

RABicle May 26, 2007 08:46 AM

I'm wearing them.

I know Ence put effort intot hem, And they looked fine in his journal where they weren't squashed down and unreadable.

Also I still need to know why we should have to read icons, talk about defeating the point. Colour coding threads would be more intuitive than this.

Such a Lust for Revenge! May 26, 2007 08:46 AM

We should really have a text only option for this. Can't satisfy everyone. =/

RABicle May 26, 2007 08:52 AM

No no I like icons. I like Pictures.

My point is well, Oh your computer, does it says "Folder" in teh fucking folder icon? Does it inform you "Document" in the document one and does Word inform you taht it is infact Microsoft Word in the icon? NO! BECAUSE IT IS AN ICON Picture represent the words, we dont needs the words written in some non consistant font in tiny unreadable writing sitting there next to the icon.

Elixir May 26, 2007 09:32 AM

They look fine on my display at 1024x.

FatsDomino May 26, 2007 10:45 AM

They're normal on every machine I've seen them from, Rab. What the hell did you do to your computer to achieve such squished images?

How things should look like:

"General" looks kinda stretched, though. Maybe it's because things are still temporary.

RABicle May 26, 2007 12:38 PM

General is the only one rthat looks right.

I think it's more a "I'm using GFF Lite theme" problem.

If that theme is going to be there, you have to cater to those of us who use it.

The Plane Is A Tiger May 26, 2007 12:45 PM

All the new icons are showing up fine for me, but the text labels are still broken in IE-6.

FatsDomino May 26, 2007 01:04 PM

I imagine once things are worked out those that use lite theme won't have images there at all. I'm pretty sure that was the whole point of lite theme. So yeah worry not your little head about those icons, Rab.

I was about to ask just that. It makes perfect sense to get rid of tags for the Lite theme alltogether - especially since I feel that they're more of an orientation guide for people who don't regularly visit the forums or have no clue what's going on in here.

I totally support this plan. It's actually reason enough to start using the Lite theme.

Don't get sarcastic with me over some shit like this. Gamingforce isn't Microsoft and we don't necessarily have to have an icon anywhere. So I was wrong, YOU LIKE PICTURES, but we still need a text only version for guys like Guru so just relax there chief.

Well, if you're using the lite skin why would you favor these images over text? Not saying you can't do that sort of thing, just wondering why.

I see why you're using the Lite theme. ;-)
