Hello and thanks for all this. I seem to be one of the few people here who works more advanced coding, so I never get much more than general compliments, and now I finally have some constructive criticism to work with!

I use Firefox, having in my opinion the best interface and a cooler look than other browsers. My Chrome browser is buggy for some reason, so I only occasionally use it to view the wiki without having to sign out. In that regard, I am aware of a few minor issues, although they aren't high on the priority list currently.


 * Yes, the height is squished on certain text input sections. In the process of updating all of them.


 * We just recently updated the site images including the background from purple to blue. Black text readability should be fluent across the page. If not, increasing your monitor's brightness might make it easier.


 * An issue I've noticed is that if the background isn't specified in the CSS (which I actually haven't applied yet with this new one), the background is removed when viewed in smaller screen widths. As far as the tiling goes, how large is your monitor? I would have thought the theme designer was supposed to vertically resize images accordingly to fit monitors' heights, given that they are provided at certain dimensions.


 * Another recent change, the global header avatar shape, many users here have square-framed images which reflect the app icon. I changed the border-radius for that reason, as I know it would certainly bother those people every time they look at their circular-cropped avatar which heavily distorts the image. I may consider changing this back after scanning some Community Central discussions.


 * I haven't heard any reports of the navigation bar's dropdown menus not opening properly, and I've tested them on different browsers including Chrome. There is a very slight gap between the opening list block and the dropdown menu, but that should not be causing issues. Such also occurs with the footer bar by default.


 * Whitespace and line breaks have been eternal pains when working with templates. Are there any tips you could give in terms of template editing? For any template, documentation is being included on it, which means phasing out all the documentation pages of default templates and using  tags. In terms of line breaks between noincluded sections, never have any? That seems to be the underlying principle of getting templates to transclude properly. So you're saying that consecutive  sections will cause issues regardless? Well, that's an awful lot of templates I'll have to be fixing. Anything else worth knowing?

Thanks for your feedback so far!
