Look up, and you'll see some new topic icons. Here is the intended use: Daft Thread:  RMD/question:  Serious:  Game:  Game alt 1:  Game alt 2:  Sport:  Guide:  Music:  Reviews:  Reviews alt:  Cookery:  There are also: Announce:  Sticky:  If you could all put the appropriate icon on your new topics, it would be appreciated. Also! Moderators will add an icon for you if you forget (or change it if it's properly wrong). I've added a few already. Please don't be offended. |

I know that it seems a bit crowded on the forum page at the moment, but I'm working on getting rid of the current topic icons and just using these dimlies instead. [edit]Although it doesn't actually look too bad. Thoughts? |

I like the icons, but I use the original icons for their new post orangey glow. If you could make the Dimlies somehow indicate a new post, then we could lose the main ones altogether in my opinion. Simply turning the icons orange would probably be the easiest, but I guess that's Dimmers' choice. I can forsee a lot of  happening in the next few days!

We already have 'new post' dimlies that work (t'was the plan) like this: New posts: No new posts:  Obviously I'll be needing to dig the code-hammer out to get them to do what we want, so don't hold your breath. |

Looks sexy as it is. Also; if a post doesn't have a Dimlie, how will this new, radical, orange-iconless regime cope? HOW?¬! Also, I'm glade we have a Science style Dimlie for the Guides. I wish he was a little dude in a labcoat with a beaker though, for those "Help, my <technical dohicky> is broke!" edit: Just noticed the flat tops

The Dimlies are great. Thanks, Dimrill for making them, and Grim... for your efforts in spiffing up the forum.

They look great, Dimrill - I think that there should perhaps be a news one? We all know Malc loves his BBC news stories. A blue Trevor McDonald, perhaps (OK, he's not BBC, but I can't think of any other news icon...) |

Why not use the 360 pad for Live related stuff and the invader for other gaming then? |

What we actually need is a 3x3 matrix of dimlies to the side of each post, allowing for every possible combination of topic types. |

Yup. It's a way of tagging the threads for people that don't want to read everything, you see. There was a discussion about this a while ago. |

WTF Maybe you should have objected when we discussed this a while ago. The reason there's no say in icons is because that isn't how it works now - the old icons have gone. I'm not going to undo all the work I did last night to get them back for one of your old threads. (I've locked four threads, in case you have a wall chart or something) |

There was another thread about a complete abolition of the post icons before this one? You only activated the post icons five days ago. |

Aye. And you've only had user topic icons since that thread - I turned them on a few days ago. We never had them before. [edit]Aha, I spy your edit. Yes, um... Your point? |

They are just icons. Does it really matter? |
