after staring at the site's colors for a long while, I realized I really wanted higher contrast between the replies and the background, to give them that nice, blocky post-it note look.

the reply boxes are already quite dark, so I decided to lighten the background considerably. it's quite jarring at first, but I think the rest of the elements really pop now, and they help keep the site looking purple. I also darkened the reply drop shadows for the same reason.

let me know what you think!

picrel is the OLD color scheme for comparison
14 posts and 1 image reply omitted. Click reply to view.

these current colors will definitely stick around as the default theme, though I may make slight adjustments while porting it over

 No.192

you should add a dark theme of sorts. the default theme is cute, but light colors strain the eyes after awhile.

 No.193

>>192
yup, it's one of the planned additions either as part of or immediately after the new version of the site. sorry for the wait (^^;)

np, though i hope "new version" doesnt mean a departure from imageboard. they can be tedious, but imageboards are the best form of communication.

 No.195

>>194
nope, don't worry! it's still going to be an imageboard, just one that's more secure, has nicer UI, some new features, etc.
it won't be a radical departure from what we have now, just a more polished version :)
I am also planning to make an effort to migrate over existing posts when the time comes

what vichan js extensions & themes are you using?

also options.js is giving me on my own instance "Uncaught TypeError: options_current_tab is undefined", do you know how to fix that?

>js extensions
if you use your browser's dev tools, you can see the full list of js files being used (picrel)
>themes
I think the news page might be the only one I'm using out of the box. the homepage is a modified copy of "recent posts", I think I made some slight tweaks to the catalog page, and the banner gallery I made myself.

>do you know how to fix that?

maybe you don't have any options tabs configured? try checking if you have js/options/general.js added to your array of enabled js; that file adds a tab and some basic settings

sorry for the downtime just now...
updating vichan is a real pain because of all the hacky changes I had to make to get this site looking just the way I wanted. just spent the last couple hours fixing issues post-update, but I'm hungry and tired, so I'm setting it aside for now. reverted back to the pre-update version

I slightly changed the syntax for post formatting.
italics is now two asterisks (previously one), and
bold is now three asterisks (previously two)

it's something I want to be pretty stable, but it annoyed me a little that you couldn't do single asterisk wraps for things like *punches you*

there are a bunch of problems with the quick post form currently - fields that I think should be there but aren't, as well as bugs/usability issues where the file uploader/embed field are inaccessible until you go to the top form and change your attachment selection, etc...

just wanted to say I'm aware of them and would like to fix it, along with other improvements to the post form. the existing quick reply js is very messy, so honestly maybe I should just throw out most of it and write one that doesn't suffer from the same issues. looking at it makes me want to jump ship to another board software like lynxchan, but I realize that might be an overreaction, and I'd have to redo all the modifications I've made here on vichan, so
( ´-ω-`) =3

anyway if you're just a user reading this, rest assured that the top post form still works entirely, and you can always use that one. sorry for the trouble m(_ _)m

been wanting this for a while - the bottom of each thread now features a [Post a Reply] button, assuming you have js enabled. it should open the quick reply form, or open the top form for you if you're close enough. of course, you could've clicked a post number instead, but this way you can open the form without adding a reply link that you'd have to delete :)

oops, looks like it shows on index pages too (but doesn't work). will have to fix tomorrow

theres no sage?
what have you got against sage?

 No.142

>>141
I think I considered it for a time, but cut it as part of the "simplicity" I wanted. I didn't want to have an "email" field in the traditional way since it feels like an anachronism these days.
I played around with having a drop-down "post options" menu instead, but the only other option would've been noko, and marzichan is an always-noko site (again, simplicity/streamlining), so it felt weird to have an entire section of the post form just for toggling sage on or off. I guess if I ever wanted to add things like fortune rolls or other funposting features, there might be reason to add an option menu.

besides, on a small site like marzichan, do we really need to be so careful about bumps? :^p
all that said, I'm open to input :)
