MOD ANNOUNCEMENT -- OH, LJ

[singularitymods.livejournal.com]

Bonjour, Carolyn ici.

As you may have noticed, either by your plurk timeline exploding, or by, I don't know, attempting to use the site, LJ has put their foot in it again. One hopes they'll roll back the changes, but until then, if we switch to the Minimalism style with custom comments on for the comms, we can get halfway-usable comment pages back. (Example Paradisa thread.)

But we don't want to spring this on anyone, so discuss in comments. Good idea? Glaring flaws? Just not too much discussion, or the threads will collapse and then we'll be in trouble.

ETA: Okay, there we go. Hope this helps at least somewhat.

ETA2: With the help of stoppedhiding and our own Larissa, we've got a style in place that maximizes use of screen real estate and doesn't hurt to look at. It should work for both Paid and Plus accounts.

I'm 99.9% sure that any changes implemented in the layout can only go up from there. The lack of eye-bright colors alone make me love the change.

So yes, ❤❤❤.

...I've just realised we have to look at the other whenever we log out of our RP journals. /quietly cries

NEVER LOG OUT.

Oh hell, I just noticed the title bar doesn't have the post title anymore. It's now the community heading. Because that's useful.

Well, I'm glad they didn't roll it out when everyone was asleep so we could manage a little damage control.
