Looking better all the time, however I would like to explain where I still see unncecessary white space (forgive the messey red scribbles). Some columns are still far wider than their content requires. I would rather this space is used by the thread title so have less wrapping.

In particular:

the checkbox at the right is in a colum 3 times its size.

the "hot" icon on the left (that I find useless) is 2 times its size
Gap to left of replies

Rating - smaller star row, an icon (and column) half the size would be more than adequate.

I know that setting the column sizes is fiddly, but I hope someone can find the time to do it.

Could we have the "Search Thread" box back on top? Having it at the bottom of a page is quite useless. If it could be replicated top and bottom, fine. But if it has to stay in a single location, I think it's more easily accessible on top.

Thanks. Smile

Thread Tools seems unnecessary to me.

For printable you have access to Lite mode at the bottom of the forum.
Send this thread seems unessary, you can send a thread url to someone.
Thread Modes can be set in User CP -> Edit options

Only useful thing here is Add Poll in view, but can't this be put in thread editor as in

Does anyone pay any attention to Thread Rating?

Would create space at top of thread for more useful option such as Search Thread mentioned in Post #213.
Would do away with a column in the thread listing giving the other columns more room to breath.

I had asked for this previously, but was rebuffed by @Klojum. I'd still like to see it moved to the top though, as I agree, having it below the thread (twice!) is really counter-intuitive.

Nop, I don't care much of the thread ratings...

It is useful in the skinning forums for WIP skins and mods etc. -- still, could take it or leave it really.

i'm on it.. needs a lot of css tweaks though to get it all properly aligned.

search box is now at the top.

I tried to add +1 to a users reputation, but it seems that the reputation gets added to the previous poster. See posts 637 and 638. I clicked the thumbs up button above post #638.

There is now an odd align of the buttons now appearing below the dividing line between posts

[edit] Ok think something local has messed up, not sure if anything to do with the CSS styling is cached by Chrome, as if I enter Incognito mode the problem disappears.

Thanks!

Which just leaves:

Does anyone really use those buttons? Randomly navigating the forum doesn't seem like the most efficient way to view content. Which is to say they could be removed entirely IMHO.

Thanks @ronie!
