so how do u do the boxes? (sorry if thats a dense question)

[Leeza]

If we go to boxes I just might quit coming here. I do not like them one bit...no, I don't.

But do whatever you wish just the same.

Right now you can use the [qq=Chester]blah[/qq] tag to do the new quote boxes. If people really hate the quote boxes then I can leave it as an optional tag and leave the default as the sucky two-hr-tag quotes. I don't want to scare Leeza away.

wow jsut [qq] insted of [qoute] sounds simple enough *gets it rong*

You see these things?

Which appear in all options you can set, such as when posting, in your user profile, etc. etc, as well as other places such as grouping attachments in posts.

Well,

They originally looked like this in vB3, boxing every single set of options, one box per where you now see just the one line with the text centred through it as above

Which is messy, once you have like 10 boxes stacked on top of each other, like you get in your user CP pages I think it's fine for the odd quote box though, since they don't all get clumped together everywhere

I wonder if having the text through the box line rather than outside the box completely would look even nicer?

One pixel border version. You could probably add the side padding too

[God]

I was thinking about that too. It does look nicer, now that I see it.

Well, I'm not sure really.

EDIT: Neat, that tag is broken in IE. Top padding doesn't work. Thanks, Microsoft!

EDIT: There, see how you all like that. For reference, this is the first version:

The stuff clout posted looks crappy in comparison to everything. Everything else seems fine.

EDIT: And the stuff that clout was talking about looked nothing like what he posted.
