For 10, going off the current one used, how about something like just the windows frame, except without the square around it. e.g.[IMG]http://i58.tinypic.com/2ic2pi0.jpg[/IMG] Clearly I can't draw properly, it was just a way of explaining with a quick mock-up. The only problem I could see would be whether it could be seen/noticed or actually done neatly.

How many fucking pages have we spent talking about a 16x16 icon that you can just hover over to get specifics anyways? This is why garry doesn't put up with us anymore.

I don't know whether it could be done properly by someone with better skills, or if it isn't an option.

What if golds could have mod-sized avatars and mods got to make theirs even bigger while blues get even smaller ones

[QUOTE=Keychain;47766033]What if golds could have mod-sized avatars and mods got to make theirs even bigger while blues get even smaller ones[/QUOTE] no
stop tooting your own horn dai...
What was the reason behind Garry reducing the size of blue avatars? I remember some dummy (his name was something like "hippopotamus" IIRC) complaining about avatar size so Garry just got rid of blue avatars. When he brought them back they were smaller. [QUOTE=Keychain;47766033]What if golds could have mod-sized avatars and mods got to make theirs even bigger while blues get even smaller ones[/QUOTE] Remember that time when the mods all had ridiculously tall utensils as their icons?
Probably already suggested but can the ignored users have their posts minimized to the user name sized blocks?
[QUOTE=Mors Quaedam;47764466]Windows 98 does have an icon.[/QUOTE] but does 2000? [editline]20th May 2015[/editline] nope
[QUOTE=Hellsing4682;47765323]OR just bookmark this shit. [URL]http://facepunch.com/login.php?do=logout[/URL][/QUOTE] Speaking of which, I still have to use a bookmark for the ticker due to the lack of its button. While it is only a minor inconvenience, I see no reason to not to bring it back.
another reminder to improve name mentions [img]http://i.imgur.com/9w7ZISc.png[/img] also the automatic large-word-breaking thing doesn't apply itself to the visitor comments page [img]http://i.imgur.com/1hUhXFK.png[/img] normally it adds a space after X characters to prevent stretches, chunkily forcing long items to wrap-around :toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooot:
This thread was great until people started bitching about icons. I feel there are more important things that could be improved. Things that would make the overall Facepunch experience better instead of just letting everyone know what networks you use. The thread started good, with great fixes like the post editing bug, https working in tags etc.
So are we gonna get back the Ticker button on the top of the page or not?

[QUOTE=Limed00d;47766964]it's not that hard to bookmark the ticker page fyi[/QUOTE] "Work around it instead of seeing that it gets fixed" If they don't want the Ticker to exist they should just get rid of it. No point in not having at least in the More tab.
[QUOTE=Talvy;47763942]Are both Windows 8 and 8.1 really needed? They even share the same logo.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Talvy;47764123]I really don't see why we need both 8 and 8.1 when the latter is a free patch and the former is now used by nobody.[/QUOTE] Yes there's a need because there's a difference and for some reason some people still aren't on 8.1. Also the fact that the NT kernel version got bumped as part of the upgrade from 6.2 to 6.3. If Microsoft didn't bother with a bump to 6.3 then you'd sort of have a point, but not really. [QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;47764031]this is probably really nitpicky but could we get a different icon for win10? [t]http://puu.sh/hUfVI/300486f837.png[/t] its the only os/browser/flag icon that's a full square iirc win10 is using purple as a main theme (unlike 8.1 which is cyan) so maybe just the flag in purple?[/QUOTE] Yeah purple, come on, Windows Phone here is red so there's zero chance of confusion: [img]http://facepunch.com/fp/browser/windows_phone.png[/img] Keep the current Windows 8.1/WP icons, make 10 the originally proposed shade of purple.

the whole thread has been about improving things currently existing, and robotboy is pretty new afaik. why assume he'd have the power or would want to make such large changes to a forum as huge as this one is now without getting permission from higher-ups
