Feedback: The new "quote thingies"

[Phaedrus]

Are pretty cool. It really draws the eye to the fact that someone is quoting someone elses' post. Maybe it's me, but I was sometimes unclear abou that in some posts under the old system.

Just wanted to quote you to show it off to anyone as yet unawares.

I was waiting to see how people liked it. It's one of those very small tweaks that end up making things much easier.

 

[tejasclone]

The quote graphic is pretty righteous, but maybe we could add a gold outline to them to keep with the color scheme for the rest of the site.

Also, I realize that the quoted text now appears in italics, but the shading used previously really helped to separate the quote from the reply. I think a thin red or gold border would help further separate the quote from the body of the new message. But maybe that's overkill.

Totally agree. Please add an outline or shading to distinguish where the quote ends more clearly. Maybe add an end quotations mark as well. I like it though. :yes:

This should make it easier for people to cite my earlier posts and show I am right more often. Definitely will cut down on plagiarism on the site. :chatterbox:

I like the red quote text, but I think you should leave the background color of the quote in a different color.

Agree, the quotations look nice, but would like to have a different color behind the quoted text and what the new person is typed.

I just updated it a little - let me know if you guys want further changes. Thanks again for the feedback.

Can I agree just to agree because everyone seems to agree on this thread? Looks good.

 

[isuno1fan]

Didn't like it at first, but now I'm getting used to it so it is fine.

 

[ajk4st8]

Keep the "quote thingies"

 

[cmoneyr]

I really like the new quote boxes, makes reading threads a lot easier, good job outta you Jeremy!

 

[Phaedrus]

Wow. Now we need some explosions, and hard rock music, naked chicks and flashing puce text.

Just kidding....

 

[BigSkyCy2]

I'm in the same boat, but would it be possible to make the box a little darker? It seems that the gray background is too light...

 

[drum1306]

Yeah a bit darker would be great. But I really like the icon - just need to finish the process so there is some definite end to the quoted section. But overall a very nice touch.

 

[whirlybirds]

how about making the red quotes a little more cardinal instead of ketchup red.......

 

[ianoconnor]

I like the red quote text, but I think you should leave the background color of the quote in a different color.

Agreed. For probably the 4th time.

 

[iowast8fan]

Dang people! Is nobody ever satisfied? The quote box looks great just the way it is. Nice change.

 

[Wesley]

Agreed. For probably the 4th time.

Background like gold?
