Membercard changes - now with whitespace!

[Carlos]

I don't like the whitespace. Looks weird. I also noticed that it's a little darker, and there are font, and link color changes, too.

I agree - but it should be no problem to change:

I like the first one better!

Are you sure it's not a simple case of the "Large" version of avatars being bigger in XF 1.2 ?

Have you tried re-uploading it to see if it fills the space?

More importantly, it doesn't use an image anymore.

Yup - that seems to be it - I've just uploaded a different image and it fills the space.

The membercard background is no longer an image, this is what it used to be.

Ah, yes, I see ... lol ... I'd thought you meant the avatar image. DOH!!

 

[CTXMedia]

CSS3 gradient?

CSS3 gradient?

Looks like just a background color

.xenOverlay.memberCard {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8);

Wahey - one less file to download/cache.

as some users have transparent avatars, i would suggest something like that instead of white

hmmm I wonder what will become of custom member cards now since it is CSS rather then a image. @Shelley

 

[Shelley]

That is fine. I like my member cards custom and uniquely shaped so it won't be a difficult change to make if it needs fixing' which I doubt since all the member card code I have resides within extra.CSS.


Ps. smiley manager works great on the nexus 7

I don't think anything will change much since the cards would override background-color. I could be mistaken though, if so it won't take much to fix.

Just remember the change is related to responsive - not having a background image allows the member card information to also change based on the width.

Good point. So I guess if we use a custom bg image, two themes should be considered with mobile detection to activate which so responsive gets default card.

Yeah I figured that was the reason why background-color was used to replace background-images.And although my next comment really isn't to make a point and practical I'd respectfully like to say "screw width". I like my membercards big and chunky, I like them big, i like them round I like them funky. Chunky chunky, chunky
