I just bookmarked this forum, but there's no pretty icon... only a gray circle. Hopefully you'll pick a sheep, so I can place it next to my lolcowfarm bookmark.

I had thought I'd set one, I did have to change some stuff to make it a PWA, I'll have a looksie again later.
I'll have to commission something proper down the road

I have set the same sheep as the favicon that is the PWA icon.
I'll eventually get something properly done by an artist later down the line

Lumeinshin I love the icon!

Lumeinshin hmm this might just be me but user profiles won't load here. anyone else has the problem?

Lumeinshin

gingermilk
not at all?

I opened profiles via a private tab and it seemed fine, anyone else let me know and i'll look into it some more

gingermilk

Lumeinshin nvm it might be my problem. everything loads perfectly if I change the browser.

Could we have a way to resize images in posts? The current default size is pretty big and sometimes takes up the majority of a post in a way I don't want.

A good question
I dont think theres anything built in or pre-built that can do that

i'll have to look at ways you can do that and maybe write something or ask someone to help lol
worst case i think we could get a custom css but different options would be nice

Lumeinshin

using some css shenanigans i have got images to be a certain max size, which should allow for the site to be a bit more scrollable. we have a lightbox so that if any text is too small you can still view the image properly.

I will still make tweaks as time goes on, but i hope this goes some way to improve the site
