I am just throwing it out there, but I find myself going to look through a forum and many times viewing sticky titles to get to the most recent posts. Would it make viewing easier to change the background on the stickies? Some forums have several stickies, so when I view them, the new posts are more than half way down the screen. Any other user thoughts?
I agree with this. It is a little confusing to look for the little red flags. Or if there is a way to put in a separation or a line to keep them separate.
You bet brother.......BTW I saved couple pieces of curly maple from that 200 yr. old tree we cut down several months back.....I may have to send you some of that. Still have a couple pieces of those old pine barn beams you asked about too. I haven't forgot, just backed up with things right now.,...
Something like this? My code is just a little buggy, but I can clean that up once I get on a computer.
It was the default option, like I said I still need to tweak the code but that's easier said than done one a mobile. The gold that we highlight new alerts with would be best, IMO.
Actually Adam, what if we tried a light charcoal gray or similar? Too much gold can get, well, ugly. My house had everything brass when we moved in. EVERYTHING was brass. My wife painted a lot of the switch plates because she wound up hating the brass so much.
Thanks for having a go at this. The contrasting color is very helpful when I'm skimming for recent activity to catch up on.
Here's an idea -- what if Stickies were given a special prefix or marker like the new For Sale / Wanted / Free labels in the classifieds section? Besides being visually obvious, I'm thinking it might give us the option of filtering the stickies out using the thread display options. Can the software be configured to allow users to filter for threads with *no* prefix?
Not sure. Let me mess with this code when I get home and see what it looks like in grey and we will go from there.
Jon, do you use the Watched Threads and New Posts features to browse the forums? Kinda like Old Business and New Business. I hardly use the built in alerts anymore although tagging may change that.
A little too bold in the classic theme I think. I liked the pink except for the pink part...... If that makes any sense.
