View Full Version : The New VH Newswire!
Well I've changed the newswire to actually look more like a newswire. What do you guys think? Does it look bad?

Hmm... it can hold more news than the other one, but it's kind of slow.
That and the thing cuts off the bottom line of the KNAC news thing...

UP FRONT FANATIC!
Yeah, I can't see the bottom part of the message. If it says "Van Halen has just announced....." and the rest is hidden, I'm liable to have a stroke.http://www.vhlinks.com/vhlforum/smilies/smile.gif
Ok working to fix, I want it to be rather slow so people can read it. I can set that interval shorter, if need be. What browser and version are you using Stuff?

Now I can see lines 1 and 2, but the third one is only half there.
3 lines?? You should only see 2 lines for each thing. Give me an example of where it is cutting you off?

I'm using Netscape here, Brett... So you'll know it works for both if it works for me.
KNAC is holding a poll for 'Which Highly Anticipated Album Do You Want To Hear
More?'
[The rest is off the screen partially]
Let's make sure VH wins, vote here now!

Both the KNAC and VH1 messages are three lines long for me. Lines 1 and 2 are fine, but the third one you can only see the top of the words.
Hmmm...it looks great for me, ok let me change a couple things.
Now?

I'm still getting the VH1 message as 3 lines, with the third one cut off at the top.
Ok now?

There's still a third line, but now it's only two words, but they are still cut off.
You're killing me here Glenn, now? http://www.vhlinks.com/vhlforum/smilies/smile.gif

I swear I'm not trying to be a malcontent.http://www.vhlinks.com/vhlforum/smilies/smile.gif I'm still getting a third line, and it's cut off. Maybe it's just me.
Christ I even shrunk the font, ok try it again. *Sigh* I'm determined to get this right so that everyone can see it correctly. http://www.vhlinks.com/vhlforum/smilies/smile.gif

The last part of the second line is "Make sure that Eddie" and then it goes to the third line, which I can just barely see the top of. Hope this helps.
At this point I'm just changing values, what about now?

Now it just seems centered. The last word on line 2 is vote, and there are two words on line 3 that are cut off.
Screw it, I just changed the text, how about now.
