How I did it

Not much to say ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
RE: Avatars on Main Site Comments - Vitiman - 09-11-2018
This would honestly be a neat idea if we could implement it with the current software. I assume it would be more difficult than just this, but there's probably a way to rig it to work.
RE: Avatars on Main Site Comments - Hyper - 09-11-2018
I like it too. Perhaps I can get it fully implemented upon staffs' approval. I did noticed a bug with the main site where avatar URLs are not saved to the database. It could be a reason why Dustin's avatar isn't showing up in some occasions.
RE: Avatars on Main Site Comments - VinnyVideo - 09-11-2018
This'll definitely be a thing in lumaSMS.
It's tricky to splice new features onto the existing mainsite software, but this would be relatively easy to implement.
RE: Avatars on Main Site Comments - Kritter - 09-11-2018
Reminds me that I never actually finished re-doing the mainsite skin.
Whoops.
RE: Avatars on Main Site Comments - Shadow Administrator Drei - 09-17-2018
Is the layout going to be like that? Not a fan.

Such constructive feedback.
RE: Avatars on Main Site Comments - Mario - 09-17-2018
Gotta agree with stir here, I think the comment layout should match the blog post and forums where the avatar is under the username and on the side of the post.
RE: Avatars on Main Site Comments - Kritter - 09-18-2018
It's a mockup. As it isn't an implemented feature (to my knowledge) people are free to mockup a better version of the suggestion if they like.

If the staff has an actual answer to my question, I have some alternatives.
RE: Avatars on Main Site Comments - Pedigree - 09-18-2018
If you mean the layout for the avatar in the comment section, that's just a concept from Kirb. I'm sure we could work on something that looks better if we were to approve this suggestion.
Honestly though, I think it'd be better if we just waited for lumaSMS for cosmetic changes like this. I can't see why we wouldn't put avatars on comments there.
RE: Avatars on Main Site Comments - Shadow Administrator Drei - 09-18-2018
I couldn't tell from the staff responses, but hopefully its something better than this mockup. I think our titular hero has a good idea.
RE: Avatars on Main Site Comments - Kritter - 09-18-2018
I dunno, it says "mockup" in the original post so I thought it was pretty obvious it wasn't set in stone.
RE: Avatars on Main Site Comments - Shadow Administrator Drei - 09-18-2018
2/10 nice trolling but i laid out the reason i asked staff if this mockup was the intended path
RE: Avatars on Main Site Comments - Pedigree - 09-18-2018
Drei and Kritter, please take your petty squabble to private messages or drop it. I'm not going to tolerate bickering like this in a feedback thread.
Drei, no we probably won't use the mockup for its implementation.
RE: Avatars on Main Site Comments - Kritter - 09-18-2018
It's not a squabble on my end, I'm just confused by his posts, he asked if it was going to be like that and I pointed out that it was a mockup (which it says in the first post), that's it on my end. As I say, people are free to come up with better alternatives and at least @Mario offered some constructive feedback on the original idea which should really be the point. It's fine to dislike something but it'd be nice to hear WHY it's disliked rather than a blanket "I dun like it" statement. Can't improve things without critique. Plenty of people here with skills in Photoshop and other editing software, or HTML editing skills.
RE: Avatars on Main Site Comments - Pedigree - 09-18-2018
Fair enough. I apologize for the misunderstanding on my part.

In any case, yes, this is just a mock-up and I don't intend to actually have anyone add it as an actual feature. It could be possible, but then again I only wanted to show off something I thought was interesting while I was messing with the coding of the site.
RE: Avatars on Main Site Comments - Kritter - 09-18-2018
I think it's a fine idea, why have avatars if we never really get to see them eh? Just needs some feedback on the layout and I'm sure someone can implement it. The main website could use some touching up before LumaSMS launches just to tide it over.
RE: Avatars on Main Site Comments - Shadow Administrator Drei - 09-18-2018
Welcome back KL! I appreciate your thought about the site, especially as the avatars really personalize these enigmatic comments people see.
