Something´s disturbing me...
on: January 01, 2018, 06:21:38 PM
I don´t know how to describe it accurately... Some pics seem to ´oscillate´.  I don´t know whether it´s my computer doing it, or something done by the poster. Anyhow, I find it quite disturbing most of the time, sometimes even nauseating, and it keeps me from enjoying MTo as I used to.

An example is here:

https://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,75254.msg1609692.html#msg1609692

It´s been going on for several weeks now, in various threads.

Edit The problem doesn´t occur when I change to another Internet browser.

I can't say I notice anything unusual in the pics you link to. I haven't seen anything on other pictures either lately.

Sorry, maybe it's your monitor  :think:

I see like a flashing bottom part of the screen, in android chrome, for a few days now - I thought it was a browser glitch

Um, sorry. They look fine to me, both on my computer and as posted. Using Chrome on a PC desktop.

The problem, on my computer, occurs in Google Chrome only. Firefox is doing fine.

Your avatar pic disturbs me as well. Fortunately it´s small enough for me to ignore.

Lol, my av aside, I have been having problems accessing the forum for the last two days, so after an extensive phone call tonight (I have a business account) there appears to be problems in the UK and certain parts of western Europe. That was as far as they would would, but were pretty confident with it being resolved in the next 24 hours.

It's bizarre as I can sit and stream netflix onto two devices at full 4k with no problems, but MTO is flakey as heck!

possibly a chrome/smf forum caching bug... it seems random. sometimes images load that are not the correct images.

add a third Spanish member (whoey, koke, me) who has this problem   :P
Sometimes (1/10 threads I'd say) the images and text kind of dance and quickly move around the margins of the screen

I've had this going for 2 weeks approx   :rant:

I think it is a conspiracy by microsoft to make us use Edge.

I suggest we use Netscape to annoy them .

I have checked and revised dozens fo threads and I've found that most times that this happens to me is with Poncho's posts and pics.

Really, nothing against you Poncho but 90% of the wiggle, dancing and weird animations in my screen come from your posts   :ahhh

usually a deep clean of browser cache related to this site fixes it on the odd occasion I have seen it.
