  1. And just for the heck of it, I'm gonna set my user style to display everywhere for me. I like lavender color schemes. Even if the new post highlight is barely visible now.

    1. @redenchilada I love that thing you posted on DA earlier, so I posted it on my Facebook today, too. "Post gifts YOU'VE given others today."

      1. @clayinthecarpet Folks on the internet just don't talk enough about what they get other people for Christmas. It's all about what they got. Always seemed kinda selfish to me.

        1. @redenchilada I agree completely. It made perfect sense to me, with FB being filled to the brim with "LOOK WHAT MY SIGNIFICANT OTHER BOUGHT ME! IT'S SO MUCH MORE THAN I EXPECTED!"

        2. @redenchilada Kind of wish I had people to give things to. That is, that didn't live at least a state away.

      1. @clayinthecarpet Hey, man! It's nice to see you on, doing any better?

        Thursday, 26-Dec-13 03:08:37 UTC from web
        1. @deadmadness665 :) Hi, dude. No...No I'm not. My right hand is still half-numb and it's hard to write/draw.

          Thursday, 26-Dec-13 03:09:09 UTC from web
          1. @clayinthecarpet I'm sorry to hear that, I really hope you get well.

            Thursday, 26-Dec-13 03:10:52 UTC from web
            1. @deadmadness665 I hope so too, man. The doc said it is very possible that it could be permanent. But he also said I'm still young, so I should heal eventually.

        2. @deadmadness665 The doctor says I might need some kind of shock therapy to find where the damage in the nerve is located. The steroid pills didn't work.

          1. @clayinthecarpet At least your still trying to do what you love, most people would have just given up all together.

            1. @deadmadness665 Dude. If I lost my ability to draw, I'd just...NEED to die. I would need to die. Luckily I have not, but it's extremely hard and takes a lot of concentration and planning.

              Thursday, 26-Dec-13 03:12:29 UTC from web
            2. @deadmadness665 That's why I "punished my hand" by giving it something nearly impossible to draw.

              Thursday, 26-Dec-13 03:13:11 UTC from web
              1. @clayinthecarpet I can only imagine! I mean the full prisma-colored artwork of Flutters and Discord was hard on you then... Before the injuries occurred! Haha

                1. @deadmadness665 It's become more like torture for the "Fluttershy's Birthday Party" piece. I have no idea how I came up with the idea so quickly. I referenced Sugarcube Corner backgrounds from Hasbro's official promos and used a lot of reference from fan-rendered designs to bring the characters together, with my own flare. But it's not a drawing...It's more like a puzzle. A 1,000 piece puzzle.

                  1. @clayinthecarpet Still, the way you pull it together.. It all fits perfectly, and just because your not "drawing" them that doesn't make it any easier on the hand..

                    Thursday, 26-Dec-13 03:21:46 UTC from web
                    1. @deadmadness665 I can't tell you just how difficult it is. I almost regret starting it. Fluttershy is done, but I haven't posted an update yet because I wanted to have the rug done first.

                      Thursday, 26-Dec-13 03:22:42 UTC from web
                      1. @clayinthecarpet Well, i'm sure it will all turn out well in the end, it always does, you just have to have faith that it will get better.

                        Thursday, 26-Dec-13 03:25:04 UTC from web
                        1. @deadmadness665 :3 Thankie.

                          Thursday, 26-Dec-13 03:26:15 UTC from web
                          1. @clayinthecarpet No problem. ^-^

    5. @vt3c Not right now, man. I'm in writing mode, trying to figure out how to move forward on a plot I've started.

    6. @redenchilada Any idea why the word highlighter in RDN Plus still doesnt seem to work on the mobile site?

      Thursday, 26-Dec-13 03:12:46 UTC from web
      1. @colfax The part of the script that handles highlights has a check that stops post processing on mobile explicitly. It's been there since before I started messing with the site code. If I had to hazard a guess why, I'd assume it's because the functions are fairly processor-intensive and not suitable for mobile devices. (your tablet's browser lags when you load the site in desktop mode, right?) I've been meaning to look at the script and optimize it at some point (particularly the "highlight any words" code, since that's horribly slow), but I haven't gotten around to it yet.

        Thursday, 26-Dec-13 03:24:08 UTC from web
        1. @redenchilada The desktop site only seems to lag the keyboard though, as in I have to stop once in a while so it can catch up.

          Thursday, 26-Dec-13 03:28:50 UTC from web
          1. @colfax Oh, just the keyboard? That's an issue somewhere else, then. If it runs fine otherwise I can just remove the mobile check on the Plus script and have post highlighting work on the mobile site too.

            Thursday, 26-Dec-13 03:31:44 UTC from web
          2. @colfax I do wanna look into that keyboard lag issue, though. What browser do you use for the site, and is it up-to-date?

            Thursday, 26-Dec-13 03:32:39 UTC from web
            1. @redenchilada Firefox 26.0.1, recently updated.

              Thursday, 26-Dec-13 03:35:08 UTC from web
            2. @redenchilada Lags all to hell using the bluetooth keyboard too.

              Thursday, 26-Dec-13 03:39:45 UTC from web
      2. @colfax Or for a plain english explanation: it doesn't run on mobile because it slows the browser. I'll look into making it faster and then let it run on mobile.

        Thursday, 26-Dec-13 03:26:19 UTC from web
        1. @redenchilada Oh yeah, and the autodecode spoiler things isn't working either... I assume for the same reasons.

          Thursday, 26-Dec-13 03:33:24 UTC from web
          1. @colfax Yeah, it stops all post-related processing.
