Can we please increase this size to 1406x469 pixels? That's how big they display as on a 1920x1080p monitor, and the resultant stretching makes the images look blurry, like poor quality jpegs.

Not to mention that the blurriness is even worse on a lot of Macs and higher-end PCs with high-resolution displays - ones that push even beyond 1080p.

Yeah, I agree with the recommendation; 1406x469 is much more reasonable. It's also not that much bigger if storage space is a concern.

Would it be fair to say that all users of "Rift" can be classified as devout followers of Riftanity? I certainly think so! Wooh for the thousands of followers overnight - I hear your prayers users of Rift!

How long until a full non-experimental is available? o.o

I'm really liking these banners!

Turned the sidebar off... this is terrifyingly different.

Also, posting again, for the Autumnal banner, where it says "See in your first national birthday", does it mean "See your first national birthday"?

So I love the new Rift theme, good job to all those involved in creating it.

Really, my one and only complaint is in how the Rift theme is presented on the forums. Game side we have the top bar and side bar. Coming into the forums is jarring to see the top bar replaced by a giant text / image link that says NationStates with the side bar not changing at all. From what I could see in earlier posts, there's a compatibility issue with the forums... Here's hoping it all gets worked out. For now I will most likely end up resorting to making the sidebar disappear on the forums and using the minimized forum style top bar.

You're welcome - I was obviously the inspiration. I must say the Banners are the best bit.

Sorry, but I gotta be Captain Buzzkill, destroyer of dreams for a moment.

The choice of "Rift" for the theme name predates any of your nations. It existed before you did.

It says "5 billion", but I have three nations, all over 5 billion, and it's still locked on the other two. This nation is the only one where it's unlocked, and also the only one that's over 10 billion. I'm guessing that the description and the actual trigger don't match...

Correct, and now fixed, thank you.

Feature does work: Chrome, Opera

Also, I want to repeat my earlier idea: I think it would be nice to have region banners too.

Works fine for me.

Windows Phone 8.1, IE11 Mobile (which I believe has an identical layout engine to desktop IE)

I just checked on my PC too. It works in IE11, Windows 8.1.

I've noticed that some people don't have their leader saying their motto. May I ask how to get this?

Some of the banners come up as literally "Faces of @@NAME@@" in the notices (screenshot).

Well done! Now fixed, thank you.

Your nation must already have a leader

You get the issue for a leader once you recieve 750 million citizens

Ummm no - It was named after me. This was a Moderators attempt at endorsing the Riftanity religion. I thank you all sooooo soooo much for this oppertunity! :lol:

Go to settings,,,It's right below your flag

An issue you may have that I had at first is you have to click the save changes button at the top

I sincerely doubt it. He's been around longer doing whatever he does before that Riftanity shizzle came about

Yeah he doesn't - doesn't change the fact he is god. Mods may follow violetism however I am sure they want what they see as the common group to follow Riftanity - how do I know? They'd have named it after Violet if that was the case. Instead they named it after their favourite (reforming) troublemaker! Maybe this is your inventive for me to make sure I stick around

On this subject I took a screenshot on an IPad - looks really good
