GUI enlargements?
Settings Suggestions
Root / Site Discussion / [.]
We finally have a settings framework, so any type of setting can be added. We currently have 2 (hopefully) helpful settings, and I'll make more soon. Edit: Now there's 4 settings. Amazing.
I'd like to know what kind of options you'd like applied to content we already have. For instance, I'm not looking for settings which add stuff to pages; I'm looking for settings which change how stuff is displayed, what is displayed, or how things work (or something else entirely).
If you have any settings suggestions, post them here and I'll see if we can add them. Settings can be on/off (checkbox), various options (dropdown box), general text (textbox), or numeric.
Try to stick to things that are helpful and not a setting just for the sake of it.
Cool
Oh yes, dates do need to be available... But there's a problem with that, namely timezones and daylight savings time.

Still, I think a post date & time should be available.
Well yea, just that its a bit of a pain zooming in and out when going here and some other sites like amazon.GUI enlargements?Why do we need that when there's a zoom feature on every browser?
Use the big endian format (YYYY-MM-DD) as SmileBasic and Unix use it, and you don't have to worry about our European friends mistaking 2016-02-01 for Jan 2. It's always understood as Feb 1.An select for the time display: •Date + Time since (example. "1/16/2016 (5 hours ago)") •Date only (example. "1/16/2016") •Time since only (example "5 hours ago")I might be able to do that.
If I did this, I would just localize it. Javascript has localization functions for dates so they display the way you expect them to.Use the big endian format (YYYY-MM-DD) as SmileBasic and Unix use it, and you don't have to worry about our European friends mistaking 2016-02-01 for Jan 2.

I always read the name as "serving suggestions" for some reason lol Anyway, maybe an option for email notifications?If we had a real email server, sure. But we don't, so I can't. I'm sorry. It takes a long time to send them over gmail, so it'd hog the server if I tried to send out dozens or even hundreds of emails.
@PixelStudio What do you mean? Only some things need to be zoomed in here?Well to be honest I just want the direct and user and notification just a tad bit bigger. I dunno how it is on PC but on a tablet I end up tapping one or the other because there so close together and tiny, also excuse my absents and late message I've got a bit busy in school.
Hm that could probably be fixed by moving away from pixels and using a better unit. I'll work on that when I can.@PixelStudio What do you mean?

This is because of image resolution. An appropriate fix would be to make it scale dynamically based on width (or height), but I feel like this would have to be a user choice because there are cases where it would simply look ugly or even smaller than before.Hm that could probably be fixed by moving away from pixels and using a better unit.
