If possible, the subthreads should be indented when you click on the widget. And the technical term would be "navigational trail," not "breadcrumb," Jim, since breadcrumbs are dynamically generated.

Do you have problems, concerns, or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.

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

These will be dynamically generated, if I understand you correctly -- each page is generated by the same code, after all.
Which is less of a problem, I think.
But why not just have them be folder icons? Those draw the eye at least as much, plus may convey information.

Eh, I was fine with the folder icons too. I just thought the Buffista red was pretty.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Maybe we should make them red folders, or yellow folders with red triangles on them.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Can we change the folder name from "Film and TV Discussion" to "Film and TV Discussions"? This is really bothering me for some reason. Maybe because "Discussions" suggests more that there are multiple threads to be found therein.

Me, I think the word Discussion looks royally dumb there under Discussion Threads, but Discussions while not meaning anything significantly different to me, looks no more dumb.

I think when it was under the Subfolders bar, having Discussion in the link title was good, if not entirely necessary. But now, yeah, good point. Not really necessary.
Arrows, folders - both good. Arrows are more aesthetically pleasing (to me), I guess, but either way.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Why not call the folder "Film and TV Threads"? That would make it similar to "Closed Threads."
I prefer the arrows, but it's just a mild preference.

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

My thought as well. I don't have a strong preference on arrows vs. folders. The arrows are better visually because of the spacing thing and the color is pretty.

Somebody's post in film is making the page really wide. I can't tell for sure, but it might be Hec's.
eta nevermind - it's been fixed.
