Misc. Question Bloated usergroups in the postbit.

[Ben]

After making the new Wolf Players group and thinking about which ones should get tagged, it's again reminded me just how bloated the post window gets when part of a ton of usergroups.



I'm pretty sure some others, like @Tommy Boy, have shared this sentiment previously that it's too much bloat. So my initial question is, do a majority of other people agree that they take up too much space, and if so what alternatives would people prefer?

My thoughts so far have been to either display only the top usergroup on the postbit, condense it down to just the icons and line them up in a single row, or maybe marquee them so they scroll but only take up the physical space of 1 tag.

Quick rough-up, but something like this? Kind of just turns them into more badges, though...

Since there seems to be concern about the consistency of the size of the boxes for user groups, let me show you non-mobile users how it looks on mobile.




You're welcome.

I appreciate that FR is finding new ways to break things. Like obliterating the reply box.

Oh I use both mobile and computer. Whichever I'm on at the moment.

Also I'm loling at @Ben saying the TBone is not showing differently than the others when his first post makes it clear as day in his own screenshot that the green is sizes differently. Straight red lines next to it and everything.

You all got T-Boned.

No, I said it was the dark outline making it look smaller on the dark themes. I posted the light background version and it's clear they're the same length.



Definitely different on the mini-width bit though so it could be improved there.

It's just an optical illusion. The dark border is harder to distinguish with a dark background but it's the same width. Same with the Wolf Players one. I checked them all and they are all the same width to the pixel.

For me, the GWF Sponsor one looks weird. The border colour is nearly identical to the Greywinners theme background and that one is nearly impossible to spot at a regular viewing distance, but sure enough zoom it in and the border is a very slightly different colour and the width is again identical.
