Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

On every level, or just the top?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'm not sure what you mean. Are we going to have another level of folders beyond the TV/writing level folders?

The code allows for it. Say, something for closed threads in each one ...

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I think it can say 'Subfolders.' I also think it looks pretty. If this is contradictory to an earlier opinion of mine, please feel free to choose which one to disregard.

Huh. I think maybe I should stay out of this discussion since I dislike the whole idea so much.

I think it should say "BUNNIES!"

or you know, FOLDERS.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I think it would look better, and more in style with the rest of the board, if there were short explainations as to what the two "folders" represented. Like we do everywhere else.

Or, at the very least make the name "Film and TV Threads" rather than the minimalist "Film and TV" name.

Film and TV Threads
The threads where we talk about all the shows and people and movies we love.

Closed Threads
The threads that are full. Conversations from days gone by.

For instance?

I think, Daniel, that as ita explained here: ita "Buffistas Building a Better Board ++" Aug 19, 2005 3:20:06 pm PDT that for it to get a slug/description means it probably won't happen because it requires other coding.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

This wouldn't hurt.

or you know, FOLDERS

yep

Boy, when ita suggested that there be a TV folder, I knew it would open a can of worms, I just had not the slightest clue it would be this particular can. In hindsight, I feel like I should have seen this coming a mile away.

I like the new folders, and think the organisational stuff works fine, ita. I use message center anyway, so nothing really changes in either how I use the board, or how it looks to me.
