... To the time when I actually had Headers and Signatures turned on.

I mean this to no offense to anyone specifically, but I just recently turned layouts back on and looking throughout the board I just couldn't help but say "Yuck!".

I've just gotten too used to having them off, and all posts being regular text and easy to read, organized, and everything. I mean yeah, some layouts out there are purely awesome.

Personally I don't really like the box styled layouts, the ones like myself (just an example), Leg's, Kyouji's, and so on that cover the entire table I find more attractive and easier to read. Again, I'm not pointing fingers here, just saying "in general".

Meh. Anyone else like this? For those of you few folks out there who disable layouts.

That's one of the more imaginative censoring attempts I've seen.

I'm used to having layouts on, but more often than not I read replies through newreply.php if the thread's not super long.

I did disable layouts once...

Layouts just make the board more interesting to look at though .

Nowadays, I just block the ones I hate, and keep the ones I like (While still blocking the ones that are broken beyond belief)

It makes finding posts by certain users easier when I have layouts on. I get disoriented without them, like when I'm at work.

Same here, except I can't be here at work. Which is probably a good thing.

I usually turn off some layouts if it causes me significant wait time for it to load (even on broadband). I think I have ziff, legion, Kitten Yiffer, and tarale's layouts off b/c at some point they took forever to load. I don't forgive, either. But I leave the other ones one.

I had Ziff's blocked almost a year now because it took forever and a day to load. I don't even remember what it was.

One thing I really....REALLY fucking hate about certain post layouts is when people put text at the top or the bottom of it which makes their posts hard to read.


Something like this:
-------------------------------------------------
*insert a bunch of misplaced graphics here*

This is a post by me which makes it my X post. I've blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blahblah blah blah blahblah blah blah blahblah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blahblah blah blah blahblah blah blah blahblah blah blah blah

actual post here

And there you have it. Yet another post by me. blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blahblah blah blah blahblah blah blah blahblah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blahblah blah blah blahblah blah blah blahblah blah blah blah

*insert a bunch of misplaced graphics here*

I have layouts on, because I like most of them, and I like how they make posts more interesting. I do have about 10 blocked though, random layouts that just suck (IMO) for one reason or another.

And since when did Ziff have a layout?

Xeogred, your board is flooded with terrible layouts. I mean damn, making a layout should be an earned feature there.

I've had layouts on ever since I got cable. It's fun. I just block layouts that screw up for me, or are annoying to look at.

There was a period of like...two days my layout took forever to load and that was a problem on Jizuko's end because he hosted it. But after that, I hosted it myself. =D

I don't even remember what layout you had.

Anyway, here's my list:

You can also block particular layouts from being shown. You currently have the layouts of the following people blocked:
Darth Coby (Unblock)

The Crimson Chin (Unblock)

I have layouts on, but I have blocked several layouts because they either took long time to load, or made it annoying to read the post.

I just went and counted, and I have actually blocked 79 differrent layouts. Anyone higher?

So besides me, you're like the only other one who has layouts turned off from what I've seen in this thread.

I can still easily find a users post and not get mixed up, everything on the left is easy to see and read. The usernames, avatars, etc, and when people have an avatar like Ziff, you don't miss it.

YD: Don't even get me started about there ...

Leg: I've seen worse stuff, like:

Samus rules you!!!Hey guys I'm new here!
----------------------------
Samus Rules you!!!

[another post]

Samus rules you!!!How do i hack ruoms?
---------------------------
Samus Rules you!!!


But with layouts turned off, I never see stuff like that.

Heh, I actually do that too. At least with threads where the 20 last posts matters more than the whole thread, such as the Town square thread.

I turn on and off layouts depending on my mood and where I am. I turned them on now, but I usually turn them off while being in public places.

I used to do that too. With layouts turned on, and browsing in public places or when my family was walking around it just made me feel really awkward.
