Sounds like a good idea, but sorting out the bar behaviour would likely take some coding, and the admins are lazy gits (or so I've heard).

They are and it won't.

Well it shouldn't anyways.

I don't actually like the bar. It looks abit sloppy to me... But then again I'm quite happy with the way they look now anyway.

Although the Glukkons posted earlier look really good.

Yes well, the bar doesn't like you.

It is, I just made it to illustrate the idea.

And yet, neater than the Mudokon faces. The idiot that made those should be fired.

I'm err, I'm just going to go and inspect these faces that aren't mine, away from you, but there not made by me.

We are, but we don't have access to anything more powerful than vB's shitty admin CP. Hint: That doesn't let us change the bar behaviour.

You're a poo poo face!

Also, I like enchilado's idea. Having two different types of symbols doesn't give rep enough variety.

Or just use plain numbers.

Slig rep icons version 2. Made them look more normal.
Do you like the first three or the last three better?

Dunno..maybe you could make them a bit more definable? At first I wasn't even aware they were sligs untill you mentioned they were.

With all due respect Alex, I don't think anybody cares. EDIT: That is to say no-one's mentioned them at all since you las posted them. They're good... but people don't seem interested.

I've officially got used to the new icons now. I'd still like them spaced out a bit though.

Nobody complained about enchilado's bars or OddHunter's glukkon. All I'm doing is suggesting my own rep icons. If you don't like them, fine, that's your choice.

My main gripe at the moment is that the current rep icons aren't wide enough and the green one needs some work.

Negative <-> Positive

What do you think?

I actually really like those.. They are very well defined and clean... And the colors are non-intrusive :)

Maybe just bung a column of blank pixels on the right though.

I like the current ones... but if they're going to be changed again, what about Glukkons for positive and Mudokons for negative?

Or Glukkons for Industrial, Mudokons for Native?

Looking at how the icons go with the backgrounds, that would probably be a good idea.

I actually think the glukkons stack really well as they are, but if everyone else thinks otherwise I can add a bit of space no problem.

That would bring us back to the issue with blurry muds, though.

Meh, that's the Nativers' problem.

Red glukkon head for bad, Green mudokon head for good and Yellow slig head for average!
1-2 pixel space between any of the icons we mentioned would work well.

Wait hold on, I prefer the glukkons and I use native, since I'm one of the few and I like the glukkons can't we make them universal? =(

I use native all the time. I can't stand the rest of them. Plus, I'm pretty sure native is the default one, so I'm just used to it.

I thought of that, but thought it wouldn't be possible because the rep icons don't have /[theme]/[theme]/ in their URL... I guess the theme can just be changed, though.

You just say that cos you want your sligs to be used :P

Really you should define them more anyway.




I did like the idea of being able to choose which rep-icons to use... But I think it should be indivdual. I think it would be interesting to see everyone else's choice. It would also give a sense of costumization.

Anyway, maybe it's a bad idea because the whole forum would be filled with inconsistent icons.

I wouldn't set it like that. Like the themes we're not going to see who's using Native whenever we're using Industrial. If we set the Glukkon heads as our rep representative then we'll see Glukkon heads on everybody's rep bar. But if we're to go down that direction then I think that we should but the old rep-bar back in if people don't want to use the new ones.

What have you done!

I've just done this. If a member is using a style other than these two, it will display the original bars.

Alcar...

Naw I liked the glukkons.
