So the fact that I can still read it without having to highlight is ok?

Edit - Now I can't read it.

Do they still nest nicely?

[/q][/q][/q][/q][/q][/q]

So only 3 quotes and 2 spoilers can be nested ,

I can nest six quotes.

Though now, I have a question: are the code and php tags also going to have a border around them now, or are they going to stay bounded by horizontal lines?

I like the new style a lot, thanks Markos!

There is also an interesting optical illusion just to add to the fun. The area inside the outer box looks lighter, to me at least, than the gray outside. However it really isn't, as you can tell by covering up the lines with something.

The two grey colors are actually different, which is probably why they look different.

The black rectangle is the area inside the quote that I moved. The light grey rectangle to the left is where I moved that rectangle to.

Ummm... The inside is lighter than the outside, Mark.

The outside color is D9D9D9, while the inside color is E2E2E2.

And vice-versa for the lighter-colored table rows.

I like the spoiler idea, makes my life at the Morrowind thread a lot easier, but I have to say very bluntly that these "box" quotes suck, I never liked them on other forums and I won't like them here. I feel like screaming when looking at that nested quote vovansim made.

Sorry.

Well, I personally don't like nested quotes in general. Though I think that when you hit the reply with quote button, some script eliminates the qutes inside the message you are quoting. So that shouldn't be a problem. At least I hope nobody makes more attempts at nesting six quotes. It does look ugly that way.

I'm not saying that nested quotes suck, I'm saying the ENTIRE box system sucks. I never liked it at all.

the quote bg color is one between the post color #1 and the post color #2(that alternate from post to post)

quote: I have to say very bluntly that these "box" quotes suck

if you're talking about the border, on mozilla(and probably ie6), it's dotted, not solid

EDIT:

Sorry, you didn't post anything under that second quote. I couldn't care if it's solid or dotted, I don't like it.

Oops, I think when I just did my quickie thing on the monitor the monitor dot pattern made 'em look to be the same color. Alas, now I'll have to give up my promising career in art!

Works fairly well- good job

Although the new quote system will take some time to get used to... dotted lines look strange when compared to straight lines... but it's an insubstantial gripe anyway

like this

quote: like so

is there an error?

quote: bug

The problem being that there is no space between the closing tag of the second quote, and the first word out of the second quote (the whole phrase between the second and the third quote does not show up.) And then there is the third quote in the same paragraph.

Earlier today the quotes looked great, but this dotted line thing looks ugly

Yeah, the dotted lines aren't the best.
How would the quotes look without any border?
