Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I've been playing at stripping down the index page and applying positional CSS, as a learning exercise -- it's further than one needs go right now (although it would ROCK for reformatting purposes), but I'm finding it very educational.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Cool. I switched the default sort to descending (although I'm a firm ascension gal myself).
On the other hand, it didn't work out so well for Daniel Jackson...

Hey. New board.
The reformatting CSS sounds fun. Would that theoretically allow me (or somebody better at this stuff) to make a more Treo-friendly buffistas, that drops things like tags and the quote and such?
My ideal Treo/mobile b.org experience would be a Message Center that was just the thread titles and how many new messages in each - no sidebars, no quote, no images. The ideal thread page would have just the title at top, then the names and messages (without tags or the "block" link), then the Read New / Message Center/ First/ Previous/ Next/ Last/ Recent links, then the post message box (no directions necessary) at the bottom (if at end of thread). Jump and search optional, though I'm thinking why not - they don't add much data, and I won't have to scroll down to them if I don't need them. If this ever becomes possible, wow, that would just be cool.

b.org already works better on my treo than 90% of other web sites.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Hey. New board.
Oh it definitely does Tom.. Posting from it now. Just could be even better

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
everytime I click on a NAFDA thread I get the NAFDA FAQ.
I went ahead and moved the slug NAFDA's to the end of the slug for the main page NAFDA threads (Bitches and fic). Does that look like it's going to a) solve the clicky problem and b) still be visible enough to be useful?
If it's a go, I can change the tv folder threads, too.

I like it! Definitely will solve the clicky problem. (Which I've had a few times this weekend, being on my mom's laptop using the touchpad.)
