A minor complaint: when I scroll up to the very top of my screen, the StyFo logo on the bar is kind of big. Then when I scroll down a little, it jumps in size, which makes the bar itself also jump. Somewhat visually annoying. It would be nice if the logo was also small at the very top, so the bar was smoother when you scrolled, rather than jumpy.

FWIW, I'm on a Macbook using Chrome v. 43

At the top. Not the tree at the bottom. I could've sworn it used to be clickable.

You're on drugs, because the breadcrumb at the top is also still clickable.

Just for fun, Fok should get the developer to put an incredibly small -- nearly indiscernible -- divot on the bottom of the bar. Then see the CM guys freak out and argue over whether the divot is actually there.

The real result of this is that the developers would kill me dead.

Oh my ****. I just opened up samples of our collaboration with Monitalty, a murdered out, black overdyed Monitaly Mountain parka and matching pants, and they look... so... *******... good. I'm going to do measurements for the samples (medium pants and size 38 jacket, Parka fits TTS, pants may be a bit oversized), take photographs in natural light, and then send them out to @Synthese and @spacepope for cool shots in the wild.

Then we'll do our pre-orders. I am seriously so stoked about this project. The jacket is heavy cotton canvas, probably heavy enough for late fall or most of spring, and as a top layer for winter most places. You could wear the parka probably once it hits 60-65. I could see them work with a white tee, the pants cinched at the cuffs, with white high tops or boots, or as part of an all black ensemble. Or the parka with black jeans and a huge scarf, or the pants with runners and a tee and leather (probably what I will do). Or... or... or...

So many possibilities, and they are all good. Am I stoked? You bet I am.

Hold on now. Here is a quick cell pic:



I promise some good pics tomorrow. @Synthese you are going to like this. The pocket flap shapes, the military details, the antique brass snaps, the removable snap on pieces (I'll have to ask Yuki what they all are) - it's a bit like Cloak.

Excited for the pants, I'd been meaning to ask about the status on this, since you last mentioned it a few months back, awesome to see that it's real and ready

Excuse my ignorance but breadcrumbs?

main_japanese-breadcrumbs.png




What am I suppose to be looking at?

Yes I cannot click the hyperlinks to go back to the prior forum/sub-forum. I am running Chrome and Windows 7 PRO 64bit

(Is breadcrumbs like an analogy for trailing hyperlinks?) I guess so


FWIW it is not clickable for me.

And I agree that visually it would be nicer to keep the "Styleforum" font static. I like the smaller text and it I don't like how the box pokes out of the bar when at top of the page.

Otherwise, I like the new navigation bar. I like the feature of being able to hover my mouse over icons with an automatic drop down/pop up.

The bar blocking posts is also kind of awkward. I can't see my avatar.
