Separated Sticky and Normal Threads
 
I added a little hack that does this. Do you guys like it on or off?

Rockgamer Apr 30, 2006 05:29 PM

I like it on. It makes it easier to tell where the new posts begin, and it puts more focus on the stickied threads as well (to me, anyway).

seanne Apr 30, 2006 05:41 PM

I must say I prefer them to be unseparated. And why isn't the 'Sticky' part bolded anymore? It was a lot easier to tell them apart when they were.

Franky Mikey Apr 30, 2006 07:00 PM

It's cool, now everyone can clearly see which threads they are supposed to skip over. :)

Kaiten Apr 30, 2006 07:29 PM

Could you make the separation smaller? Eight pixels would be perfect, small gaps look better.

Sarag Apr 30, 2006 08:49 PM

I like it so much that I decided to mention it in two threads. good job Miles.

Soluzar Apr 30, 2006 09:06 PM

It's cool. Not strictly necessary, but not in any way detrimental. It's a nice feature.

YO PITTSBURGH MIKE HERE Apr 30, 2006 09:58 PM

Great little addition. Thanks, Miles.

knkwzrd Apr 30, 2006 10:05 PM

It's pretty much flogging a dead horse by now, but nice work.

I poked it and it made a sad sound Apr 30, 2006 11:02 PM

I don't particularly like it, actually.

Maybe if the gap were a little smaller, it would look better. But as it is, I'm not too keen on it.

Sorry Miles. =/

Miles May 1, 2006 02:27 AM

Hmm... Some people like and and others hate it. I'll see if I can make it smaller.

Big fucking deal.

While I may not know if you're even SERIOUS (I can never tell with you), the purpose of this thread is feedback. Or so I am assuming.

You being on staff is a complete paradox to me.

But anyways, Miles - maybe you could try a little bar or something? That would probably be a lot less obtrusive.

Bigblah May 1, 2006 09:51 AM

I reduced the bar to half its size.

This thread is as necessary as looking for a thermometer when your house is on fire. Who the hell cares if there's a fucking inch of space between sticky and normal threads?

Fjordor May 1, 2006 09:51 AM

I like the decreased spacing Blah. (thought it was Miles at first) Good job.
Not too obvious and/or gaudy, but still there.

Actually, I was happy to see there was an explanation about it, and someone actually CARED to ask us if we liked it or not.

Frankly, I am extremely appreciative of the gesture. I know you probably don't think it's important to see how people like the layout of their forums, but as a member, I feel better knowing that someone gives a shit.

And Blah, it looks perfect now, actually. I really like it. No complaints~ I just hope everyone else finds it acceptable too. =/

And THANKS. <3

Musharraf May 1, 2006 10:35 AM

Well whatever, you see, in my opinion there are more important things to do than adding a fucking line between sticky and non-sticky threads. It's not like this is changing our forum layout to some more or less important degree. Sorry, you know I'm a passionate human being, don't take everything I say so seriously.

Eleo May 1, 2006 11:08 AM

I have to say I'm indifferent. Never accidentally looked at a Sticky as a real thread; brain tunes Sticky threads out nowadays.

Can't say it's a bad addition, though.

Miles May 1, 2006 11:08 AM

Mushy. If you'd like to see other things done then let me know what they are. Just remember, I'm pretty limited on what I can do since I don't have very much coding experience. I can, however, install hacks and follow instructions on adding code to specific places. Thats how things like the arcade got installed. Until blah or bobo come around to help me I'll continue digging around for other little things to add on just to make this place a little more interesting.

Musharraf May 1, 2006 11:31 AM

Yeah okay sorry I shouldn't have said that. Nevermind, want some ice-cream? =D

Kaleb.G May 1, 2006 01:28 PM

This is good, but I'd prefer to see a different display of sticky threads entirely. What I envision is something where when a thread is made sticky, it doesn't actually keep it at top, but it makes a "shortcut" to it at the top for easy access and viewing. This way, the sticky threads will still be inline with other threads as to not be easily passed over, but we'll have the shortcuts at top to draw attention to them.

For example, something like this.

This is actually a pretty mint idea. It gives the impression that these topics listed at the top of the forum are a little more important than the rest of everything else. And it also allows room for the actual threads coming up, unhindered.

It looks nice and clean, if you ask me. Is there any chance of this happening?

value tart May 1, 2006 02:21 PM

I like what we have now, but I like what Kaleb posted even better. It makes the stickies look like announcements without eating part of the front page.

Rydia May 1, 2006 04:32 PM

It's a helpful addition and lets the threads stand out a bit more. The smaller line was a nice change as well.

That's also a good idea, Kaleb. I wouldn't mind seeing something like that on individual forums.
