Hello,

We've added a little new visual feature for the recent topics widget where now It'll show the user's avatar (resized to 30x30) next to the topic's title and date. It's still not 100% complete as we're still going to work a bit more on the background of the widget, but nothing major.

We're seeking to add more visuals to our forum and this one of the steps we're taking to achieve that goal.

With this change, you should be aware that the length of your topic must not exceed 25-29 letter otherwise It'll be clipped. Make sure you pick an appropriate topic title for your topics from now on.

We'll also start using shortcuts for discussion topics such as the following:

Deck Arch-Type Discussion > DATD
Single-Card Discussion > SCD
Anime-Card Discussion > ACD
Manga-Card Discussion > MCD
Announcement: ANCT
Suggestion: SGTT
Signaute of the Week: SOTW
Card of the Week: COTW

It'll take you a day or so to get used to those new abbreviations but it's all for the sake of the forum to look nice and organized.

This is for the sake of the topic title to be more clear. This change will take place starting today, we won't be updating the older topics, but we'll start using these shortcuts in our future topics from now on.

The maximum number of letters now for a topic title has been maximized for 29 letter, meaning It's technically impossible to have a topic title that exceeds 29 letter, BUT, if anything happened, and for some reason someone was able to exceed that number, the topic title it'll be clipped.

If you notice anything out of place please let me know ASAP.

That would be all Smile

Just a quick note: We're still debating whether this is a positive change or not, meaning this is not a permanent thing as of yet. We'll see whether it's possible to make it look slightly better.

The first time I saw that I got pretty upset at it >.>
Btw it might be hard for first timers to know what they actually want to open if everything has just capital letters.

We'll mainly use the abbreviations in discussion topics, or we just won't use anything at all.

So these are changes to the site?

descriptionRecent Topics Widget Update EmptyRe: Recent Topics Widget Update

It's changes to minor things that you usually don't pay much attention to. However, some browsers doesn't support some of the things we've added - probably because we haven't used full list to cover all browsers - however, you should have no issues when using Firefox.

Also, there was a bug for Google Chrome users that have been fixed.
