    [​IMG] I've installed a minor hack that will make the name of the topic starter in the thread list display link to their profile. I'd like to hear if people think it's a good or bad addition though. We've already got links all over, so if many people think that this should be changed back to what it was, I'll revert back.

    [​IMG] Hmm, I'm unsure what to think about it.:cry:

    Yes, it may help you to see wether someone of significance has replied to your topic :evil: But I must admit, adding the last poster did space it out a bit, the topic list entries are two liners now.:cry:

    So it doesn't look as cluttered as it could, but it does look cluttered. The consequence is that you can see fewer topics at once now so you have to scroll to get an overview.:cry:

    Well, it looks ok when you have a 17" and shut down the link window on the IE. I'll get used to it ... one far day :(:cry::good:

    [​IMG] I love it!

    No matter the extra space, it looks odd now because we got used to older form of list display.

    There certainly are a lot of links now floating around the Boards O' Magick, but it's cool. Good addition, although probably not necessary.

    [​IMG] Well, though it still looks clustered :p it is ... at least useful. I can instantly see if someone replied to me by checking the topic list. No longer a need to check all threads manually. Definitely an advantage which significantly eases spamming. That compensates for clustering :D

    EDIT: 2400th post :roll::spin: Besides, I didn't protested first only to drive up my wordcount! :nono: ;)
