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

ita, I'm not seeing a difference. Maybe you'd already changed it by the time I clicked through?

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

No--I didn't change it from #FFFFCC to #FFFAB9 until just before I posted ita "Buffistas Building a Better Board ++" Apr 8, 2009 10:19:58 am PDT. You not seeing a difference is good. I can see it now.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I think it looks best with no background-color. The boldface and smaller font size differentiate it enough for me.

I think it's better to err formally on the side of a little bit of over differentiating. I'm going to lose the colour and perhaps the font weight and put in a dotted box, myself.

I should note that I probably don't feel strongly enough about this to be driving the decision-making. If it really bugs, I can edit my own css.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I don't like it, I think it will be too easy to click by accident, but I don't have a suggestion for improvement.

Logically, I think it needs to be grouped with the thread title.

Which is how it is now, but I think navigability trumps semantics in this case, and we should save the user having to scroll back to the top of the screen to use them.

This is my preference, too.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

The pale yellow is up. Un-outlined it's almost invisible on my laptop.

It's just so barely in between visible and invisible that it hurts my eyes. It makes me think I'm seeing spots.

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

I have to admit that I am not personally a fan of the yellow boxes, though I can see how they would be helpful as breadcrumbs.

Is there a way for individual users to get rid of them via CSS?
