D:

You know... it's probably a better thing to wait until like 3 AM to edit the Pokémon Infobox. The servers get kinda pissy if you don't... especially with all the traffic.

Also get on AIM so we can communicate better. D: TTEchidna 01:02, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

I'm afraid 3 AM is a tad inconvenient for me, seeing how it's 3 AM in my time zone as well (I really don't feel like getting up at 3 in the morning to contribute to a Pokémon fansite of all things) so how about around 9-10 PM, or 6 AM on Thursday after I watch the anime on KeyHole?

As for getting on AIM, I generally don't use that service and actually prefer the talk page, especially since I get e-mail notification whenever someone posts here. However, I just installed [http:www.pidgin.im Pidgin] in case you absolutely must contact me via AIM. My screenname is the same as my email address (quagbert (at) gmail.com) and I'll try to stay logged in whenever I'm working on something on this site. Just keep in mind that I'm not available 24/7.

Everyone always with the email address as the screenname... does no one ever set it up with just the screenname anymore? TTEchidna 06:35, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

for the record, 6AM EST is a superb time to edit stressful templates. (also, Pidgin > AIM) -- MAGNEDETH 06:41, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

CSS

Is there a particular reason you switched the -webkit-border-radius? I did have the code I used there tested in Safari as well, so I have no idea what differences your changes are making, aside from the fix to the usermessage box. If you could at least mention something in the edit summary for me, since I am testing my code and otherwise have no idea what you're changing. If you're fixing something, I'd like to know what it is, so I can avoid the issue in the future.

On the note of that, however, for future reference, the border-radius line should always be under the -moz and -webkit variants, so they're processed first in the correct browsers (those two being the preferred codes, and the least buggy). -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 05:05, 21 March 2010 (UTC)

Unfortunately, Safari (at least from my experience) doesn't support the border-radius shortcut for individual corners (i.e. -webkit-border-radius: 1em 0 0 1em;) so I had to replace it with the code for the individual corners, as before my edit none of the corners were round when viewing the site in Safari.

As for the plain, non-browser-specific border-radius code, I'll take your word and leave it after the -moz and -webkit code, but I figured I'd let you know (my apologies if you already know) that according to this site the latest version of Opera (10.5) and the upcoming Internet Explorer 9 both support it, and I'm sure Firefox and Safari will eventually support it as well.

I saw it once I'd gone and re-tested the CSS in Safari (Safari doesn't do an amazing job at testing changes), so I apologize if I was a bit short with you about it. But it would just do me a huge favor if you leave something in the edit summary, or hop on AIM or even IRC every so often, so I can get in touch with you easily. (there's a #bulbapedia channel now on the irc.systemnet.info network, if you've got any access to it.)

And yeah, I'm aware of the future CSS3 support (although I hadn't seen that page in particular, nifty stuff). It's been mentioned on the Main Page talk, as well as mentioning that the unprefixed border-radius should always come last, which is why I've been switching your edits around a bit; it's already a pain in the ass to get things to semi-work in IE7 or IE8, so I'm trying to avoid anything that could cause an issue in any other major browser. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 16:17, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
