Powers that be,
Why does the sidebar information for those who have an avatar display differently from those who do not have that darling little picture? Those with the avatar have their data shown next to the picture so it extends into the message block; those of us without an avatar have the data displayed without extension into the message block.
:thinking:
because that is what vBulletin, the software which powers our humble internet forum, commands it to do
Displays are identical on my screen. :thinking:
And VB is what or who?Quote:

It isn't intended for user info to extend into the messageblock. I can't reproduce what you described in the browsers I use, Bruce. What are you using? Knowing might help troubleshoot it
That and a screenshot would be helpful.Quote:

Bruce, if you click on "Help" and then "About Internet Explorer" what version does it say you're using?
I'm guessing it's v.6 or lower.
The appearance of this site relies on CSS, and Internet Explorer 6 doesn't fully understand CSS.
It might be time for an upgrade!
Any of the following browsers will work correctly (if you just want to upgrade Internet Explorer, use the top one. If you want to live on the edge and try something new, there are lots of choices!):
Internet Explorer downloads - Microsoft Windows
Google Chrome - Get a fast new browser. For PC, Mac, and Linux
Mozilla | Firefox web browser & Thunderbird email client
Apple - Safari - Browse the web in smarter, more powerful ways.
Opera browser | Faster & safer internet | Free download
(Here's what Bruce's screen (probably) looks like: )
Exactly so!
Jimmy's data is below his avatar and hoglahoo's data is along side his avatar just as in the "screenshot?" and as it displays on my computer. My question is since it appears that it is not something unique to my computer, "why the difference and how can it be un-differed?"
:confused:
This may be a premature observation, but it appears at first glance that only those who are bebadged are attached to this affliction in their posts when viewed in IE7
With IE6 it's the "My Location" Google Map link that causes the problem...
People that don't have the link display correctly (though their avatars are huge).
I think we were going to move that link anyway... We should try that and see if the problem resolves. I don't have time to do it right now.
A lot of the CSS that makes menubars and controls look good doesn't work in IE6 either:
Bruce, if you go back to the previous links provided by HNSB try Mozzila Firefox. A very nice browser with many add ons, such as "no script". Recommended for added safety. Especially on a microsoft box. That may display correctly for you.
Your browser is outdated. Use the links in my post on page 1 (the one with the screenshot) and pick out a brand new browser!Quote:

My browser certainly could be outdated, but my gurus say it's the best that's available to me. Regardless, the changes that I'm guessing you guys made has straightened things out and all looks good.Quote:
