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

How does this look to people? I'm not sure of the range of browser validity.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Firefox 3 on XP - looks normal to me except that the usernames aren't links to profiles (probably because that's a guest view and not a logged-in member?)

I'm not a huge fan of the box around the breadcrumbs at the top and bottom, but that's just an aesthetic thing. Is there any way to left-justify that line instead of putting it right on top of the Read New | Message Center etc?

Yeah--if you're not logged in you can't click through on user names.

Do you mean left justify it in the same line as Read New? That's very busy. It would have to be a separate line to prevent the possibility of over(lap/flow).

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Speaking for me and not Jess, I'd be fine with left on a separate line, but on the right it looks cluttered/crowded with all the other stuff there.

(Although I'll probably display:none it anyway, so ignore this opinion if you like...)

looks fine to me, but i'm also using firefox 3 on XP. oh and i agree with Jessica about the box. it looks out of place there.

You are seeing the mirrored breadcrumb at the bottom too, right? I tried it on the left and sometimes it came into the space of the rest of the nav bar and sometimes it didn't, and it looked messy. Which is why I wanted to make the justification in the navbar consistent, and distinguish the breadcrumbs visually somehow. It could be by background colour or something else, though.

I think the breadcrumbs in the top of the right navbar is overkill.

I like top and bottom. Because, of course...


Jesse - Apr 08, 2009 7:43:45 am PDT #2771 of 4673
Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I like where it is located (both times), not crazy about the box aesthetically.

I would be removing them from the thread header.
