Shepard` is now known as Shepard

dsp: check it now

uff ruaok I get an system error page when i got to http://musicbrainz.homeip.net/showartist.html?a...

:(

I don't...

what sort of system error?

also I agree wvery much but it will making working with artists like http://musicbrainz.org/showartist.html?artistid... that only have VA releases confusing

ah a refresh sorted it

that artist needs splitting mo

Mud is now known as mudcrow

well I know very little about it so be my gues. I'm only addingmnembers of and things

ah, that's a point

:)

should add a variable if only VA album, show that

ruaok: could you make http://musicbrainz.homeip.net/showartist.html?a... display a bit better?

or something

"Displaying all releases Show all releases" and "Displaying all releases. Show albums, singles and EPs"

because that looks borked http://musicbrainz.homeip.net/showartist.html?a...

I think anything that indicates that the artist has no albums, singles or EPs *but* has VA albums would work too

I don't know how he's doing it, it might be easier that way

yes

nikki_: I implemented both of your suggestions. take a look now.

hmm

hmm

http://musicbrainz.homeip.net/showartist.html?a... <- now the VA albums under it can't be found at all :o

the jive five now looks lie kit has *no* albums

I really approve of the idea

think how much easier it will l be to load bethooven!

even loading U2 is great

ruaok: down at the bottom i might use a larger font and put some more space above it, possibly left align it too

it kind of tucks up under the EPs for me on ff 1.5

muz?

Savage Circus, remember them?

oh, and a mostly unrelated rant... i despise sites that disable the underlines on links :)

me to

yes

Just got their album : )

ohh

It appears available now

add to MB if not present, tag, listen, tell me!

whooooooo http://musicbrainz.homeip.net/showartist.html?a...

Tomorrow Shepard. Tomorrow.

\o/

ruaok: also the part at the top. The Show all releases wraps around under change to compact listing when the browser window is narrowish

it'd be good for those to be seperate cells or divs or whatnot

back even

dsp: not sure about the font size thing. I left aligned and padded it more though.

itsa bit big, one less size augta do it fine

lemme fix one other thing real quick...

ruaok: that looks better. i might say 'Displaying a, s, and E only.'

i don't know why i think i want that only though :)

or maybe say 'Compilations, VAs, and blah blah have been supressed. Show all releases'

i so hate UI work

I like it the way it is now. nikki_ has a good sense for these things.

nikki_: does this look acceptable now?

poor cadets

better than before at least!

well, to list that there ARE albums, i would have to take the DB penalty I am trying to avoid.

and since this is an edge case, it will have to do.

i wonder how much this will help perf

sighs

dsp: we'll see in a few hours.

Not sure about the wrapping issue though...

only because I'm working with such album, single and ep less artists at the moment, its so typica

I like the way it currenly says though

oh, yea dsp, I will fix that.

catgroove: you could use some greasemonkey love to get the full page..

umh, how on earth can i use greache monkey in opera?

catgroove: not my fault you're using that browser, heh

istr a someone working on a greasemonkey-a-like though for opera

but what is it even?

all I know is that people lcomplai n that it makes the browser slow and or it doesn'rt work properly

what it *does* I have no idea

javascript to rewrite web pages and stuff

meh javascript

for something like this you could rewrite all the urls to always get the full listing

it wasn't a particularly serious suggestion

sounds.. complicated

aren't there proxies that can do that?

please take one last look before I boot this thing out the door!

wait as ec!

ruaok: looks good

sec

you want to make it go live now?

:(

soon, yes.

I understand why

MartinRudat is now known as MingVase

can't make an mo only exeption on VA albums? :p

its also a non perl module change, which is why I am willing to do it.

sorry,no.

I know, henche the :p

last call for ojvections!

objections too. :)

ug it will mean two extra clicks everytime I mod, but what else is new. if it helps mb in any way, go for it

two extra?

well on these small va album only artists I click expand all so I can see what tracks there are

ah.

now i have to click show first .)

besides, it will lhave a better fix later, right?

:)

and I will l be getting fruity pebbles, so it's all good

you fruity pebbles crack whore!

ja jøss

ok, change is now live on main server.

I deserve 3 packets forthis..

eek, when did it get so late :x

it should take alot of the load off

eek indeednikki

wtf I haven't eaten or fed the cats

the lingo of full/compact listing vs 'all releases'/album,single,EP might be a little confusing to some ppl

it looks kind of odd when the page has two links in that box one saying 'Change to full listing' and the other 'Show all release'

dsp: I'm worried about that. But we'll wait for some feedback to see if things improve.

whoever is searching on bach will have to wait a while.

sorry, that was me

i was pondering something

whether the full/compact could be combined into the compact look with a new plus button on the left or something

no worries, it just doesn't work.

the only data you'd lose is the [English, Latin] foo i think

ya, i realized that after you said that and went ot the old search

actually i guess you don't lose that

Can we get a switch in prefrences to turn "show all releases" on permanently or have some cookie that rememebers our settings for the current session? Doing edits is kind of a pain clicking on that link every time.

in the next release, he said, didn't he?

Oh I didn't catch that.

someone RFE that please.

not me, I'm going to bed in a minute, after I update lj with useless crap.

lo all ;)

hi panda

congrats!

thanks :)

I've been thinking about that story about showing/hiding the tally of vote

personnaly, I don't mind at all, I would even prefer shown votes

but if this is really a concern, perhaps the "votee" shouldn't see it?

(I mean, the tally of votes during the election)
