Don't worry Crumble, I can see it. Very strange. Only happens on some of the posts and apparently on some browsers. (Right now I'm iOS using chrome) don't know if this is something we have power over or if it's just the way the forum displays on certain browsers.
Seems to be displaying fine on Androird using Chrome...
Happening to me, though not quite as extreme. Safari on iPad.
Main GCID: GregDarcy Secondary: GregDarcyToo All gems friends spoken for. Happy to accept friends for party hats. I blame Apple's auto incorrect for all my typos. I actively discourage challenges. All challengers are unfriended.
Same as Greg on the iPad, but not seeing it with Waterfox in the computer.
Hate to say it, but not likely something we have power over as an Admin. Might be fixable within the coding of the forum, but that is above our paygrade. Sorry it is happening, wish we could help.

Thanks Lemmy. I'm using my Ipad with safari. The problem only occurs in the last line of a post, as if the place for the text doesn't consider the text-depth. Maybe we could make a workaround by adding a blank line to each text ? ( if we could exchange good luck with Koala this might be possible too ?)
Oh, and the extremity of the cut-out differs by the zoom-size. When the text is as small as possible on my ipad, nearly the whole text-depth is cut, but when I zoom in it's only a small part of the bottom bows.
Edited to add : sorry didn't see that there was a new page with new information because I didn't refresh. Pixie : if it's out of our reach - never mind, it's no big problem, it's sometimes just a slightly bit more difficult to read.

Crumble - added some g's and y's to the post below, as well as adding a few extra lines to see if it made a difference for you. Check it out dragonvale-tips.proboards.com/post/97674/thread

Saw your edit before reading this post and had a laugh. Sadly the "g"s are not in the last line of the post and the y hasn't a bow - it's straight at the bottom, so the difference is not good to be seen. Would say, that they are plain (right word ?) But again : it's not so important. Make my own Test : gggggggg
Edit : yes, aadding a blnk line (extra carriage return) helps

Hmmmm, had added 3 returns to that post.
As I said above, it's difficult to tell whether the "y"s are cut or not. Looks as if they are not cut ( so your CR worked).
For final test I will make two posts one with and another without an extra return. Here's the first one without the return
qqqqqq pppppp gggggg jjjjjjjjjj yyyyyyyyy

Sorry if this has been answered already but what happened to the banner with the latest DV news? It was so convenient. I also find myself getting confused about the author of a post. For some reason my brain wants that darker, solid line to come at the end of a post instead of under the author (if that description makes sense). I guess I just have to get used to it. One thing I like about the new format is that my phone lets me zoom in to increase the font.

I can't seem to edit my previous post. My granddaughter's young eyes tell me that alternate posts are shaded. Is there a way to increase that contrast? I will purchase the app if it comes with accessibility features.

Hi Susie. The news fade still exists, it's at the top of the forum's main page, just underneath the list of admins. Only. It's rather small. And we're unable to include colors in it so it's not as flashy.
As for the colors, I've darkened them a bit. I can see them better now on my monitor, but let me know if it's still difficult to see the difference bewteen the posts.
For editing, you just look at the top, right-hand corner of your post. There should be a small button that says edit! Hope this helps

The contrast seems better. Thank you so much! There is a gear in the upper right hand corner that opens a button menu with Edit as an option. Nothing seems to happen. I honestly don't see anything that resembles a news fade. I did a screen shot of the main page but don't know how to insert it. Clipboard isn't working well with the forum. I have an Android. Recently version 4.3 was pushed out and has created some issues for Samsung phones. I wonder if that could be a factor.

It seems like nothing happens when you click on the Edit button, but scroll down the page a bit and you should see your own post you want to edit.
And in passing, to tell you I get the message "this forum has exceeded its attachment space limit". Does that mean, start another thread next year?
I'm afraid it's a forum wide storage problem...
People that want to post pictures are going to have to host them up externally and link to them using the IMG tags instead of adding them as attachments...
I did inadvertently contribute to the forum storage problem, and will go back and delete old posts w/ attachments.

Don't delete your old posts!
I wuold hate to loose our history over this.
If you want to upload the pics elsewhere and then edit the old posts, I guess that might work, but we're still likely to hit the limit again at some point down the line.
Was able to remove attachments w/o deleting the message. That is a little something. Bloodstone, you are right, we will eventually run into the storage prob. again.
I need to go back and read this thread from the beginning. I remember the discussion about ad free. Could not recall the specifics on storage capacity, I know I have read it. Dont mind contributing $ for us to have more storage at all. Tried to $ when I first joined the group, it was complicated I was not sure what I was doing then, so I abandoned the idea. .
OT - strangely, I dont have a worksheet for DV, yet I have a template keeping track of acct.'s user id and passwords. The idea of having to open another acct, ie Paypal, photobasket..etc are not appealing. Never the less, will do, if I need to.
