Yes, my point was in response to your saying: 22 hours ago, Daudio said: And, in terms of the 'look'; I know a fair number of things about graphic design, and the most important of those is that I am NOT a graphic designer (through I do have a fair 'eye'), and neither are you. It takes a lot more learning, practice and talent, to be proficient at that job, then either of us has. Not even close. Perhaps you could enlist a CA member with the right 'chops' to help ? I think the old design was pretty damn good ! I recall thinking long ago, that it was quite a nice design for a professed 'geek. The color palette was pleasing, and helped separate and highlight key interface elements. The script 'logo' looked very good, and added a nice welcoming contrast to the usual techy font selections - perhaps a merger of the digital and the analog ?

Curiously, it was turned on, and now I see the sigs without having changed my settings. Maybe I failed to notice the sigs because they are in pale gray and I use the f.lux program to dim my display at night. At least now I know what to look for! kumakuma 1 HQPlayer (on 3.8 GHz 8-core i7 iMac 2020) > NAA (on 2012 Mac Mini i7) > RME ADI-2 v2 > Benchmark AHB-2 > Thiel 3.7 Link to comment

rickca Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Chris, when I do a member search, why is there always by default a Group specification of Annoying selected? I always have to untick that box.

It was created by my uploading the e-mail addresses of the CA members who send the most messages to me. But seriously, this explains why half the time my searches turn up nothing--and the other half the time they come back with a bunch of posts by @rickca (J.K. I love ya Rick.)

rickca Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Chris, I'd like a way to see all activity except certain threads. When a thread goes bad, it tends to have a very high activity level as the rhetoric cranks up. Lately we've had more and more of these. So I'd like to ignore a thread rather than ignore a user. Sometimes the same user posts quite intelligent things in other threads.

Try it and see if you like it: https://www.computeraudiophile.com/discover/35/ I love your phrase "when a thread goes bad." So true!

austinpop Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Chris, I just noticed a slight issue with the "Computer Audiophile Blue" theme. The Search field on the top bar of the page is the same blue color of the bar, so very hard to distinguish. It looks like this: Other themes have the search field in a lighter (or white) color. Could you change the field itself to a lighter shade, so it's more visible? My Audio Setup Link to comment
austinpop Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 @The Computer Audiophile Hi Chris: Have you given any more thought to my feature request regarding some means of pinning useful content? For context, here's my post: The need is dire, IMO. Even a simple, manual solution would be a start. My Audio Setup Link to comment
The Computer Audiophile Posted June 12, 2017 Author Share Posted June 12, 2017 Hi @austinpop, thanks bringing this up again. It's a great idea that would help everyone immensely. I'm going over the options you suggested right now and thinking about how to implement something either exactly or in the spirit of your suggestion. I don't mean to push work off to you or anyone else, but if you want you can search for a plugin that's already built or similar functionality. I'm not opposed to purchasing a plugin type of solution rather than building it myself. Here is a link to available plugins etc.. https://invisioncommunity.com/files/ Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment
