OK, it will be our 1st Live Game with our new LOOK & FEEL….
Remember, the development is not finished, still need to tweak some stuff!
1. Comment Numbering
2. Need to re-scale the Tables (Like the Team Sheets above) and need to decrease the Table line spacings… and maybe need to Style Tables a bit better!
3. Need to decrease the line spacing in Bullet lists
4. Need to contrive alternating coulours for comment blocks to keep the comments apart and seperate a bit better
5. Need to make the Header Fonts on the Sidebar Blocks slightly smaller, so that headings would fit better
6. Need to decrease the H3 Header size (Typically the Headings of the Table above with Team Names) a tad smaller…
Any other quick suggestions?
Smilies work, Reply and Quote works…. damn the bloody Comment Numbers!
Eish… typical.
Leave the East Randers to their own devices for a day or two, and suddenly you have to go on a 3 day course to learn what you knew like the back of your hand previously.
Seriously though GBS, a new look and feel is always a bit of a surprise and I’m sure it’ll take a day or two to get used to, then it’ll be like it was always thus.
Must have been a k@khuis vol of work to get it up and running.
Thanks for the effort.
Sharks wen met 20 punte die naweek.
Should be a hometown win for the ‘ Bucket heads’, but with these erratic Rebels you can never be sure.
@ Pietman:
Flippin ANZAC teams have TOTALLY varked up my SuperBru with some of the sh1t they’ve dished up.

Being a bit conservative this morning, are you, very modest prediction…with ‘Persie’ Mvovo man of the match, scoring all those 20 points 😛

That despite falling from the sky onto his head whilst going for an up and under and winning the decisive penalty even though it was still a “fair contest”?
@ Pietman:
You “recovered from the flight?
My “better half” going back to CAO from the KKNK this afternoon, then back to JHB tomorrow.
Eish, she can put kilo’s on a flipping ry ding.
@ Scrumdown:
Morning scrummer, yes, especially with the ‘Saffa Oz Mob’ in Perth doing most of the damage at the bookies, they have really played well since Ebersohn and the Smithies joined them.
@ Pietman:
Yup, Aussie dollar also flipping strong, so our youngsters that aren’t in contention for higher honours can zip across the Indian Ocean, live a nice stress free life style in decent weather, play Football in conditions not toally opposite to SA, (as against in Europe), and earn a k@khuis vol geld for the future.
Aussies plundering our talent like there’s no tomorrow.
Like new new look GBS, fresh indeed!
@ Scrumdown:
EK sal hulle fokken wys hoe lyk dit as n Saffa rerig moer strip!)
Yes thanks, it was a hectic week, to Potchefstroom and Cape Town and back in 6 days.
(Still not done though. I went to Immigration in Rihadh yesterday afternoon to renew my workpermit my second attempt, spent 4 hours ‘in-line’ while those faarkers behind the counter were’ off-line’ again, gloating at us foreigners, eating filafels. drinking tea and spending most of their time in the prayer room…. On my way back last night I was pushed off the road on the desert highway at 140 kph, the crazy camel jockey in a white Toyota Avalon must have been doing at least 200 kph in tow with another white Jaguar F type following him bumper to bumper, he came so close he knocked off the door mirror on my side with one big bang! I am still shaking this morning after that, I tell you. But faarkem, I’m going to hit them back with at least 20% penalty on consulting fees alone, new contract taking effect this morning while I’m watching rugby…. Pietman’s revenge starting now!
@ Pietman:
Die Sharks wen altyd al speel hulle nie.
Hoz pagamisa.
@ Scrumdown:
Ozzie dollar and Euro literally producing SA rugby millionaires by the hour, Canada to start soon as well, mark my words. (The exchange rate is the main reason why I am also still sticking it out in this godforsaken land, for another year or two.)

3 @ Scrumdown:
Yip, was a moooooooooosa lot of work!
We’ll have to see how it performs and how much load it takes and places on the Web Host server, before we declare it a success!
There is still a lot to finish up though!

Unfortunately it’s much the same the world over (immigration sh1t), and the fukcers know it.
Ek hoor die Tjarks is so goed, hulle kry sommer 4 punte vir die bye die naweek. 😉
GBS
Smaak my jy het n opening in die firewall gelos terwyl jy besig was met die verbeterings.
Ek sien Fern het weer by een of ander agterdeur in geglip.
There goes the neighborhood.
