Title: 'New Post' Default Image
Post by Anthony on 08.09.2010 at 06:13:11
I noticed that the blinking circles that showed a forum had new post was kind of annoying while scrolling down the forums, so I took the liberty to change the default to the current blue and orange 'checkmarks'. The orange one means a new post is out, and a blue one is no new posts. I think this will just make it easier for people to see new posts as they scroll down, instead of stopping to see if any circles are blinking.

What do you guys think? Should it stay this way?

I've been using the old format all along because I didn't like the new colors or the blinking circles.

The forum colours in my opinion are pretty... mellow. If you guys thought of a better colour combo, which would you pick?

Perhaps a light red, a more friendly green, a sky blue (like the default, but darker) or perhaps yellow? :P

I like the check marks much better. Makes it stand out more. Personally, I like the colors.

This is much better, IMO, but it would be nice if we could use close and open treasure chests for this.  Do you think that is possible, Anthony?

I'm not sure how to upload images yet. I'll look into it. If so, e-mail me the images of the treasure chest closed / open.
