New forum reply layout

http://i49.tinypic.com/33ndz0z.jpg

At the moment on the making new topic and replying to new topic there are a lot of blank spaces either side, and a lot of boring grey.

This is my new idea for the forum reply box not only is the reply box bigger but the whole thing is smaller, I also added my idea for the blocks, they should work exactly like in scratch except the fact they don't make anything do anything.

The red box at the bottom is how much space there is there at this moment, and shows how much smaller my idea is.

Looks good! It's got an engaging layout, and the forums blocks are a LOT simpler. I definitely support!

Re: New forum reply layout

I support this, but it's not possible with the current version of the forums.
Instead of telling the Scratch team, you should tell Smartys, because he's the developer of the FluxBB style

Re: New forum reply layout

I prefer the current forums, beside the blocks part. I like the grey...

I'm sure the colour scheme doesn't matter that much anyway, although it looks cool. Imagine, if at 3am one day, the Scratch team changed the forum to a different forumstyle. Mass panic  big_smile

What about all the people on the foums at 3am? They'd probably start refrshing their screens repeatedly and crash the server.

Awesome mockup, it definitely enhances the look of the forum, and makes it tons more user friendly!  wink  Supporter!

And it wasn't user friendly before? Or are you talking about the blocks thing?

Re: New forum reply layout

Support! Hopefully the modification of the Scratch site will include something much like this, especially in terms of the blocks. Maybe the rewrite of Scratch in Flash will make this possible?

I don't really care about the color(s), but the blocks' design looks great!  smile
