reorganizing the forums

It's odd to me that the nice large thread envelope icon itself isn't a click target.

I'd like to see that become clickable and perform the "goto first new post" action. That should be easy enough to hit on all devices, and wouldn't add any additional space.

I'd second that if possible. Thanks woof for the icons. The big one would be nice, but anything bigger would be a huge improvement.

I considered that, but it has another function for moderators.

So it turned out the smallest of these, 18px, was still too big and caused other formatting errors. I think the biggest we can get away with is 15 or 16px.

Bummer. Well, here are some 'smaller' yet a bit bigger than the originals.

It won't help the hit target, but it might help the looks...

You could try adding a box-shadow to the button.

As of today, AOL browser no longer works with this forum. IE works fine. I know, i need to get off of aol, but I have too much stuff printed with my aol address.

More details on the symptoms?

Can open the site, but none of the buttons will work. Can open pull down menu's but cant actuate anything.

You can keep your AOL email address and just access it through any browser by going to AOL.com - News, Sports, Weather, Entertainment, Local & Lifestyle. I use Firefox with no issues.

Brian, Restarted AOL, now better.

JR.. Yes, but I get 200+ emails /day that I need to look at and aol.com is not very user friendy.

I have dual screens, so I can have ie/chrome/firefox open on the other side. Seems to work well. I just keep getting ribbed by my friends for still having aol.

Sorry, AOL=LOL

As of today, meaning it worked yesterday. Seeing how nothing functional changed on this end...

Yeah, I know it's "cool" to mock AOL, but it's more of a statement not to give in to peer pressure Why do I need to change my email address to make other people happy? :tongue: You want to contact me, you can do it through AOL.com, bitches! :biggrin:
