View Full Version : Virtual Teen Logo Issue (Overlapping)

Awhile ago, I noticed that the logo partially overlaps the global (site) navigation bar. I am using Google Chrome, but I have tried browsing VT in Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox as well. The problem does not occur in Internet Explorer.

I have included a screenshot of the logo overlapping the "Home" and "Community ..." part of global navigation bar. It is a widescreen picture, so the issue may look different to some people. At any rate, since this doesn't happen on the static content portion of the site (everything located in /topics/), I'm assuming there is something in the forum's style sheets that is to blame. Or maybe it's being caused by either the distance fix or the out-dated ad division?

Hmmm. I probably should have stated that I'm using version 6.0.472.14. I first thought it was just my browser, yet it happens in Firefox too, so that's why I'm bringing it up.

I am using Google chrome(I don't know what version). It overlaps when you have different resolutions. This is the maximum screen resolution on a 15": CLICK ME (http://i29.tinypic.com/2rekvph.jpg), this is in the minimum resolution(It depends on the GPU):CLICK ME2! (http://i32.tinypic.com/2pr5ocg.jpg) .


OOT.

Hm? That's a thumbnail image, but Tinypic and Photobuck doesn't have that "th" magic. Shame...

Ahhh! Thank you. I didn't try changing my resolutions. Although it is weird that the original design for the homepage doesn't render the same thing. Maybe additional line breaks are needed for those resolutions.

By the by, as far as free image-hosting goes, I would definitely have to recommend ImageShack.us. TinyPic is good for simplicity and short links, and Photobucket is good for large collections of images, but ImageShack takes the cake. Also, the cake is a lie.

Getting back on topic, this isn't an urgent bug to fix by any means. It apparently only affects some people; most definitely, only people with *specific* resolutions as Dreamer pointed out. So if it can't be helped, I'll get over it. Just wanted to report it.

Edit:

If it is resolution that's messing it up, maybe it's just a font DPI + resolution complication, in which case moar line breaks would solve it... In theory o.O

I think this problem is mostly prominent in GC. I tried the ol' IE, but I find it all right, there is no overlapping.

The bug is stuck in GC, I presume.

I'm using Google Chrome and the logo is over-lapping all the way to the "T" in Teen Topics.

This only happens to me on my old Windows ME computer, using Seamonkey Browser and 1024x768 resolution.
