Breaking New site Design

On thread lists, the font weighting on the titles of threads that you've read (no new messages) is kinda light. In the CSS, the class responsible for this is called .structItem-title. There's two font-weight properties in there, which is unnecessary. One is set to 300 and one to 400. The 300 one is active, but 400 would be more appropriate, so you could delete the 300 one, or just delete them both (which will default to 400).

I actually did this originally just because it was hard to tell which threads had new posts and which did not, but you’re right it’s probably too light now on unread ones. I’ll change it!
 
From the day Gar said

Jim. I'm starting a new message bored and I'm coming to you first because I know it won't work without you.

I knew at that point Gar was on to something. I sold all of my stock in Berkshire and went full in on tPB.

Part of the problem is that this board software puts user avatars next to thread titles. Most boards put a thread status icon in that position instead.
 
When you get a like, you can click on "your post" from the notification to follow the like but if someone replies to your post you cannot click "your post" and have to click thread title in the notification.

I demand that the link be in the same spot, either or.

Thanks,

It would be nice if what you had to click on was either underlined or bolded.

I noticed that too! I’ll see if I can fix it
 
The "jump to new" and "unwatch" buttons on the top right and the "attach files" button on the reply bar are hard to read

I was about to say I disagree but I switched to dark mode and see what you’re saying. I’ll figure that out too
