Had to disable account creation completely, email conf was not enough to deter link spammers. Should be replaced by common domains login shortly anyway.

Crediting the current design

Originally the official number (except for my original design) was displayed in the status bar of most browsers. The status bar seems to have been largely eliminated though so I changed it to a mouseover of the words "random style" in the body of the document. My design shows a number of times determined by the javascript, currently about 10-20% of the time and for reasons unclear (i.e. the detailed behavior of the random function that causes it) they tend to bunch together.

Fault rate

There is a rate of failure on the display of CZG designs . There are different causes. One is that the user agent may simply fail to retrieve or render the design at all. In that case you see just the text with essentially no style and black and white text. The other is that a design may load but not render correctly due to my changed XHTML in which case usually some part of the design "messes up". I know of no cases where the whole design fails when it is retrieved and a rendering is attempted. Failures of both kinds together as well as the consecutive appearances of my design occur about 10% of the time. Rate may be higher on "mess ups". To see, use the feature above to see the number of the design, go to the actual CZG, and look at the design. Sometimes although a design looks OK here, there are things missing which you will see there. Root 01:31, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

Did however match the php up to the current HTML Shea is distributing and that seems to have much improved the rendering, taking the "mess ups" of all kinds to the low rate I thought was present when starting this thread. Root 01:04, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

Standards Checks

These fail, I've not really given it much attention, mostly tedious niggling shit. I don't want to address this other than thru the CL-MCP CL-XSL component here and may do so later. The standard CZG does appear the pass the ones I tried. Root 01:50, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

Account Creation disabled

Disabled new account creation due a link spammer from some "social bookmarking service" in Texas. If you want an account send me an email and I'll create it. Root 09:42, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
