jellysundae Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Involuntary festive site theme enabled, and... NO ONE IS COMPLAINING ABOUT IT‼ Well, practically no-one... I'm amazed, and truly happy for the people of Neopia that the majority are liking the theme and it's brightening their days. When I saw the topics about it I immediately expected them to be a whole load of WAH-pantsing but nope, even the cursors being a little tricky to use isn't phasing people, the festive spirit is in full effect on Neopets today! collector_3, LonelyHanakoKoi, AppaMomo and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanso Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I'm complaining a little, internally As you said, using the cursor can be a little tricky, and I really don't like how the rotating footer pictures are poorly resized: (here's the original image for comparison) Anyway, I just changed my theme back to Treasure Keepers and went on with my day. I got tired of complaining about JS a while ago. Besides, it's December, which means I'm 90% less grumpy than usual. ikids, Scoobert_Doo and jellysundae 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midnight_spell360 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I think they've been "tweeking" the cursor. That stupid hat that lost me many items I was haggling to buy at the Food Store is GONE! It has become a (not exactly) red glove that turns (not exactly), so I'm glad not to be fumbling in my haggling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emily_speck_15 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I love it, like unequivocally love it. I really haven't felt like in my life there is anything holiday related happening, and have just been generally bummed out about exams and it just was a nice surprise jellysundae 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellysundae Posted December 6, 2018 Author Share Posted December 6, 2018 I did find the elf hat a little odd, not exactly great having a pointer that's point is curved, lol, so I can see why they changed that. I DID spend some quality time tickling Turmy's foot with it because you never know, but it didn't have any effect. I'm not looking on the boards again, because I do suspect that the grouching will be multiplying by now, just because this IS the boards we're talking about here.

Angeló Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 the glove was there from the start when you pointed at something outside the main window and there is another cursor which is A ball ornament ? idk .. i but i honestly love it so much and i hope we get to keep it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaydeed Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I was beaming this morning and love the music, but I had to give up and swap b/c of the cursor. Even tweaked, it cost me a restock and it's just too all over the place. But I love the theme and it's super sweet of TNT to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to keep it on the Lost Heirloom now to remind myself there's a plot happening... Hanso 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nielo Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Cute theme, and a nice gesture, but the cursor drove me insane within seconds (and apparently this is the improved version?), so I changed it back right away. Apparently I'm one of the few people not bothered by the complaining on the boards. I think it's perfectly natural/human (plus, with such a large, diverse (in at least age & nationality) userbase, it's hard to do things that are liked by all); we tend to be more vocal about things we don't like in all aspects of life, and as long as people still feel the need to talk about how things can be improved, it means they still care. Besides, they often have a point, and if no complaining is done, TNT will assume all is well and things won't change/improve. At this point I see more people on the boards complain about the complaining, and - don't worry, I see the irony/hypocrisy here - this does annoy me.

jellysundae Posted December 6, 2018 Author Share Posted December 6, 2018 I've switched back now, but only because I was struggling with the ornament cursor, I like the little glove a lot, but the thinness of the ornament's string makes it hard to use, doesn't it, a star with a point at the top might have been a better option.

Duma Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 The ornament one is for type fields and the string is just like your normal type cursor so not having a problem with that. I don't like moving things tho, even though its a very pretty theme! EDIT: after doing my dailies I see why the stringornament one can be confusing. It's not only text fields but also some, not all, buttons where the top line is actually the one that needs to line up with the button.

Rayd1978 Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I don't like it, but I don't care enough to seek out boards to whine about it. Thankfully i happened across this one in passing, so I can do a little whining without effort. charelan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that's why I gave up on this theme in the end, I found copy/pasting difficult especially. 14 hours ago, Rayd1978 said: I don't like it, but I don't care enough to seek out boards to whine about it.
