Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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

Don't feel bad. I think that's come up before.

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

That's why I was able to answer quickly.

Could you use 2 sheets at the same time? Like 'Stealth' AND 'Large"? For I am blind AND need to hide.

I don't understand the request. What is "stealth"? Do you want everything to be in white-font?

I think Stealth is work-friendly, ie, no pictures of folks to scream that you're on a fun site.

There aren't any pictures of folks now. So what needs to be changed to meet the request?

In ita's mind stealth == no colours or graphics, period.

Ah. Mmm.

If ita's mind is correct, then that's not a stylesheet change so much as a mode change. We'd have to make show-no-graphics an option in the user profile.

Or the user could log on in lynx.

If we do get stylesheets, it would be great to be able to get a smaller font on here.

Also, I see no need for user pictures. On the profile pages, I don't have a strong argument against them, but I always found having pictures with every post ugly and distracting on fora where they're allowed. (Except LJ, but there's a whole Cult of the Icon there, as well as size limits.)

I apologize if this is a silly question, but how would "search by email address" work? I would love to be able to find someone's email from their user ID, but I'm not crazy about anything that would work the other way 'round.

I would love to be able to easily create polls on here. Voting does somewhat mitigate the need, but they'd still be fun and ocassionally useful.

Am neutral on taglines. I suppose if I designed a system from scratch they wouldn't change, but I'm used to them being gone with the wind.
