Postmortem Blinded by the Light

I hope that I'm ⏰ on this, because then that means I'm seconding it, but as is known, stickers don't work on Mobile TOR without the haxxxer ski77s to manually input the URL associated with the reaction. That's something broken.
 
this was a thing in one of our themes and i absolutely fucking despised it because you hit it on accident all the fucking time and there's no "go back to where i was fucking reading" button
ah, i see how that could've been a problem.

also while i'm here, where's the Members page, nool?
 
if you have more nitpicks let me know
I have a few:
1. On the main page, all the blocks have 8px padding around them, except the Featured threads:

This inconsistency bothers me a lot.
2. Also, regarding the Featured threads block: there is a lot of text on the left, but not much is going on on the right. Why not move the dates to the right? Also, since this isn't super important information, maybe make the text smaller and more gray?
3. Your message regarding your financial situation doesn't have a background. It would've been ok on its own, but the shadow around it sticks out like a sore thumb. Either remove the shadow, or add a background to it.
4. As it stands, the "Your changes have been saved" message (.flashMessage class) doesn't have a background, as well as the .formSubmitRow-main block (it appears at the bottom when you try to edit your post, change it and then scroll away to the top).

Man, the compression on those web pees is rough, reminds me of crusty old jpegs from 2000s.
 
I'm not developing a suite of custom mods for xenforo.
does xenforo have a utility similar to highlights, but for more pivitol/impactful events?
For example, the OP in the Linkara thread isn't the best. The first few posts talk about how he isn't much of a lolcow, but you skip to the end and you learn he has a green m&m fetish. What happened in between? When did he get the green m&m fetish?
You could use the highlight feature, but then you have to trudge through lots of shitposts. Having an "events" options would be really useful to navigate back to important moments in someone's life.
 
All I care about is the Mark Forums Read button being not behind a pulldown. I suppose it can wait.

[There it is. Awesomesauce.]

If not asked before, one thing I really do miss mainly due to ease of access was how the Forums sub tab was always open and not hidden behind a pulldown:

It's more just for quality of life since I used watched threads to catch up on the ones I'm interested in.

Can "search by date" be a default option when using the search drop-down menu, and NOT need to go to the advanced search page? It would streamline finding things on this site so much faster.

I really like this thread and how changes are being made that look good in real time. Thanks for the effort, it actually works!

I want a iPod nano in the corner that autoplays linkin_park_numb.mp3 every time I open the main page.

I also want dancing_gir.gif stickers and this video embedded on the Home Screen

The background needs sparkle. I want monster energy logos in the margins. I want ads for smiley central and custom cursors in the header. RAWR XD
