Just a small one, on the future page the link to future plans still says 2021 plans and specuation and the page also links to Towers Loving Care which (unless there is more to it than I know) ended in 2018.

It's on my radar... I just didn't quite get to it when I was doing all the other 'end of season' updates. The last few days of the season gets pretty busy, so some of the smaller stuff remains on the waiting list. :)
 
I wasn't sure about posting this as its really petty and I'm not even sure I'm right. So please forgive me if I'm wrong or if I'm being a little ridiculous as this really isn't a major issue.

The website bottom navigation has seemed to have decentred on some pages.
for example on the home page its like this:

while on the forum page is looks like this


Forgive me if I'm wrong but I'm sure all of the pages looked like the forum one at one point?
It doesn't really matter and neither are a problem I just wondered that was all.

You are correct, the bottom navigation does behave differently on some pages (in fact, most of the navigation behaves differently on the forums for one reason or another).

It wasn't originally designed to work like that on desktop, but at some point the responsive styling (i.e. what makes the site look ok on mobile) has taken precedent, reducing the number of columns.

But like you say, it's such a small issue it is quite far down my list of stuff to work on.

Thanks for your reply @Squiggs , I did regret posting this as it's such a small issue.
 
Not a big issue but I attempted to download a picture from the TS wallpaper page: https://towersstreet.com/features/wallpapers/
I found selecting the size I wanted just showed a preview with no obvious way to download the picture and to right-click save picture as option. When I then attempted to right-click save picture as before selecting size it downloaded and I set it as my wallpaper however it's not in line (as to be expected as I couldn't pick size) and very blurry. This might well be me being a little stupid.
I presume it's an issue on my end but thought I'd let you know.

Yeah you're downloading the thumbnail from what you posted in Discord, not the actual wallpaper image. You need to right click the resolution you want then open the link in a new window/tab. I should note those wallpapers are really out of date resolution wise these days though, so they still might stretch a bit weird depending on your laptop/pc's resolution!

Bit late to the party, but I can probably do something about that...!!

Had I realised anyone actually still wanted them, I might have considered looking a few years ago :p
 
Dark mode! Can we please please please get a dark mode on the forum. If there is not one already. (cant see one, unless I have been blinded by the white) :)

I run everything in dark mode, Windows themes, other websites, separate apps. Then when coming onto TST, it is like opening the sun, nearly get knocked off my chair. Hell of a lot of white on here, even more discomforting to the eyes when running HDR displays, which are becoming more and more common now, especially with Windows and phones having more native HDR support, which really pushes large amounts of white to discomforting levels.

A lovely Alton Towers purple background would be amazing, hint hint ;)

We'll add it to the list, no promises on when or if but definitely there as a consideration. I'd recommend popping over here as a workaround for the time being though ;).
