Title: Is it just me or does this format confuse everyones eye's?
Post by: Mike_Amiga on March 01, 2004, 10:53:14 PM: EXAMPLE

Views : 77 Replies : 3 Posted by : Nickname

Maybe it's the positioning of the colons, but I find my eyes read "77 Replies" totally ignoring the word "Views". Maybe the colour on the front page is also a factor.

I'd rather have it set out so the number comes first, like this:

77 Views - 3 Replies - Posted by Nickname

It just looks clearer to my eyes that way.

Post by: golem on March 02, 2004, 11:13:09 AM: The site, in the main, looks wicked but I'm glad you've brought back the hot topics in the forum at the top. I always check these out first and their absence was meaning I was going to Amigaworld.net where they have the same.

I was wondering if someone might point that out, these eggs work just fine. :lol:

Well someone's implemented it :-D (I definitely prefer this slightly different news layout)

Post by: on March 02, 2004, 07:19:39 PM: My fault. I just got to thinking about it and was able to do it with minimal code hacking.

There's a locked thread with a title like, "Oh no, b@stards, phew!" that although is not marked as sticky, always seems to be second from top in that forum.

Please realize that there are over 100,000 different threads here. Thanks for pointing out this issue, but please give a URL when reporting an issue. Make it easy on us old folks who have to remember how this stuff works eh?

It's not nice to make an old man think...

:-)

Actually, in this case, for some unknown reason, the thread in question WAS marked sticky, hence it's incorrect placement. Fixed.
