Did something change Mike

[atmmachine816]

Mike when I view a board now it shows part of the first post in each which makes in my opinion it a bit hard to read the board. Did you change something? I looked in my layout area and I can't find anything and I didn't change anything today.

thanks

It's the same for me too glad it's not just me!

[Mike]

Yes - I added a quick preview under each post link. Not sure if I like it or not yet. I like it from the perspective that I can get an idea of what a post is about, but don't like it cause it looks kinda cluttered.

[Tom]

Ya, I agree with you, it does look cluttered. I feel like everything is changing around me and I don't like it. lol

Hey - I gotta keep you on your toes anxiously awaiting to see what else I'll throw out there, right?

[Mike]

I just increased the padding in between table rows, and it looks a little less cluttered.

Ya, cause those blue and orange things really confused me and I don't like being confused.

Don't know if it's an option for the board system you're using, but a couple of other forums I'm on have the "quick view", but only when you rollover the title, so it doesn't clutter the screen.

My opinion is that this looks too cluttered, but I'll get over it if you decide to keep it.

I like it this way

[Neville]

great idea Mike, i like the way.

Mmmmh guys? Can I play? I can't see the preview thing

Do you mean that it is the way it was before and then when you take the curser over the topic it shows a little of what the topic is?

Hi Mike...
A lot of forums use that as well, and I personally like to be able to read a few lines of the topic. When there are long lists to go through it helps to see if that particular topic has what you are looking for in the way of information. Its a nice touch IMO...

I dunno. I can't be expected to remember anything more than a few hours ago.
Honestly, this probably was another forum that used it, and I've already forgotten that.

We've gone over this, fish remember stuff really well.
I've got a shorter memory than fish.

[Tom]

I know people have gone over this. But I am just going by the myth.

o ok, I don't see anything separating them though

[COBettaCouple]

yea, i like the 'preview' but don't see dividers either.

[Gwenz]

IMO i don't realy like it. Like you said before, makes it look clutered. although i do like the fact that you can read the start of the posts.

I've seen that before, I'd much rather have that. This just seems cluttered. I mean, I'm sure I'd get used to it, but...

[Gwenz]

ye thats how i feel.

[COBettaCouple]

maybe if the font for it were even smaller and it grabbed only 1 line of text?
