Compact Vertical preview
Results may vary


A new thread layout (we haven't had one in quite a while) for everyone to check out and see. Just finished today (in roughly 30 minutes, heh) and ||bass went ahead and uploaded it for me.

17:45'34''| Xkeeper NaN: By the way, seriously
17:45'49''| Xkeeper NaN: go to editprofile and check the bottommost option in Thread Layout
17:47'23''| Cymor0: Oh god
17:47'30''| Cymor0: It's JIZZ-WORTHY.

I remember when someone in the past (I forget who) did a mockup of what ABoard 2.0 would look like, and this was the layout that was used.

It's very, very nice.

The only problem I can find is that if someone's avatar decides to go a little overboard (coughhiryuucough) it makes it a lot larger.

Perhaps if I ever find a major error in this I'll update it

Actually, avatars arent a problem, since they all get resized. If you had included custom titles, however, then we would had had some shit on our hands.

They're only resized to fit 60 width, not height. Find one of Hiryuu's posts and you'll know what I'm talking about

If we use this layout, I think the "Acmlm's Board" banner would seem too wide.
Plus, when you make the post and poster onthe same line(by making it vertical)
it makes it hard to read the post, maybe.


edit:
Sorry...
I said too much...
and it was bad english...

I'll be careful.

(next edit)
OK, I was very dumb.
I didn't know it was about the layout in "edit profile".
I changed it.
...not bad.

Honestly, it's not that bad at all.

Not my cup of tea, so you'd probably never see me actually using that setting, but I wouldn't be surprised if others liked it.

I'm surprised so many people are still using Regular with graphics, the broken GD images just annoy me. So, I've been using Regular without the graphics for quite some time.

Edit: Ikuzou, you should actually try it out before you say something like that. It IS available.

Layouts look nice in it, but posts without layouts are...eh.

Back to RPG layout for me, methinks.

Holy-crap-not-in-my-opinion!

I just checked it out with layouts on (I have them off usually), and to me it just looks weird.

Yeah, it's easy to find a specific users posts, but I just don't like it.

With layouts turned off though, I'd say this setting is fine.

Heh, complete opposite.

Well, honestly it's not that bad.

Hmm... it's interesting, but will probably take some getting used to for me o.o

I'll give it a go for a while.

Most layouts are meant for the traditional "tall post area" thing, not the "wide but not tall" setup like this.

Shorter, stretchy layouts work very well here, though.

That looks kinda cool, and would be useful in limited vertical space...I think I'll still use the regular layout though, because my browser window is always maximized on 1024x768.

Actually, it looks good in normal width too (and a lot of times, takes up less space)

It just means less space is wasted since you just have that top bar, not the one on the side that just takes up space after the first few lines

Because, ironically, your avatar takes up more vertical space than most of your posts?

Well that would be hard pressed for me, seeing as if the text area would have to be the size of two or three paragraphs.

The post area, however, is bigger. It's just a flaw in your design.

No, when you post your avatar stretches the whole top bar area to be 120 (180?)px tall, making it 3 times the size it is in those screenshots (and therefore, large enough to hold 3 paragraphs)

So yeah, it is.
