See topic.

When there is no new messages, the private message icon should be a colour that you wouldn't draw attention to.

I don't know what it shows if there is new private messages, but I've clicked on the icon a few times thinking there'd be something there. >_>

Also, the hover text should also state if there is no new messages or new messages.

Agreed. Bright green is confusing.

Can't agree any more. Should be really straightforward.

Yeah, I've checked my private message box several times already as well. :P

What does it change to when you actually have a private message?

While you're at it, remove the border and make it show how many new messages you have (if it does not already </forever alone> ).
Like this:

Private messages (1)

It does show new messages, just... not like that, IIRC.

Gray for unread is a good idea. It keeps confusing me.

Agreed here too.

Also, why does it need to be an icon? It's being kinda inconsistent with the rest of the links, and kinda breaking one of Acmlmboard's traditions to not be bloated with tons of useless icons, unlike other board softwares... well, one icon is fine, but no more. I don't want this board to look like a phpBB clone.

I'd rather it be transparent. That way it blends perfectly into the layout. The outline could be white or something instead. Then when you've got a message it cna actually be filled up!

Nice idea. Heck, when you got new messages, it could even have an overlay being the number of unread PMs you have :)

While we don't have the overly *yet* (it's planned) but at least we have it so it should be more obvious. (grey off, green got a PM) :)

Nice :)

However, I still wonder why the PM link has to be an icon. (one icon is fine, but I don't want it to become a trend over the board)

Indeed. This is not, nor ought it be, Neritic Net.

Says the guy who got NN-style sidebar classing in ;)

Yeah but Neritic Net does have good features and bad features. The sidebars are a good feature for they allow more extended post customization, but icons serve no purpose other than trying to look like 'professional' software (yes, the same kind of software whose code is an unreadable mess. The simplest thing ever will go through 30 PHP files, each with its opaque layer of abstraction and mess.)

In this case, the icon is meant to be an "at a glace" indicator for PMs, that doesn't take up as much space as wording may. This is how I see it anyway. You won't see much of anything else become 'icons'. I feel Menu Links should be words personally.

Now that this is done, until we implement GFX lib numerals this suggestion has been met. :D

Re: the unceremoniously locked thread I posted a few minutes ago:

By that logic, then, minipics don't need border=0 in their <img> tags. Be consistent. Be fucking consistent.

Border=0 is deprecated anyway, and you know as well as I do that the code is a fucking mess, built on an even bigger mess.

Simple make-everyone-happy solution with legacy support:
a img { border: none; }


E: Bonus points because it uses CSS and therefore isn't deprecated, numpnuts.

(For that matter, if we're going to give a hoot about deprecation, why not just filter out <b> and <i> and other related deprecated tags?)
