madlithuanian Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 I was messaging with scs about how we view the board and was wondering how everyone views the threads... Do you guys view in standard mode or outline mode? (or other?) I view in outline since I don't necessarily care what the most recent post is, but instead to follow a specific sub-thread or conversation.

scs787 Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 I'm obviously the vote for standard, I find the flow of reading everything much smoother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I view in outline since I don't necessarily care what the most recent post is, but instead to follow a specific sub-thread or conversation. Not sure how I view it, ive never changed anything so whatever the default setting is, is the way I view. Where can I go to change it to see how the two are different?

Alaskan Grizzly Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 I chose "other". I prefer to 'view' it with my eyes. But I think Outline is the format I read it in...or is it? I can't tell the advantage of one over the other. Isn't outline the 'default' setting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madlithuanian Posted March 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 When you're in a thread, there should be an "options" buttom towards the top right of the page...there you can set the different views... I imagine default is standard, but I'm not sure. I tweaked my preferences so long ago that I have no idea! Not sure how I view it, ive never changed anything so whatever the default setting is, is the way I view. Where can I go to change it to see how the two are different?

madlithuanian Posted March 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 Not sure in all honestly what the default is. All I know is when I switch to standard, I just get pages of detailed reponses. Whereas when I've selected outline, it's a summary (like an outline) of the thread and various sub-threads. I chose "other". I prefer to 'view' it with my eyes. But I think Outline is the format I read it in...or is it? I can't tell the advantage of one over the other. Isn't outline the 'default' setting?

madlithuanian Posted March 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 Here are pdf's of the generic view of outline, then std... outline std Note the options at the top right to go between the various views Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madlithuanian Posted March 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 I was chatting with scs about how when I view his posts, they never follow a sub-thread. Apparently, he follows the std view, so he didn't see that happening... So, just out of curiousity, I was wondering how everyone else views. I think outline is better so I can see the forrest from the trees... Why are you asking? Just out of curiosity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZ54 Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Standard. No idea there was an outline option and now that I do know there is one I'll still be in standard mode. That's because I value each and every word each of you has to say! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alaskan Grizzly Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Sorta unrelated to your question but still Bears..... So now that Devin is gone, who changes the banner for the site? I think Brian (?) was asking about this a year or so ago but nothing happened. My thought at the time would be to do something 'old school' with pics of historic players; Butkus, GSH, Payton, Sayers, Luckman...etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scs787 Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 I'd rather go with Marshall/Jeffery and maybe MartyB....but that's cause I'm a "young'n" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskan Grizzly Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 I'd rather go with Marshall/Jeffery and maybe MartyB....but that's cause I'm a "young'n" Yeah but then we'll have to change it again in about five years or so.... Maybe not such a bad thing. Dang whippersnappers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Change is good my friend. Soxtalk changes theirs every year. Ironically this year they have Frank Thomas so they went with a blast from the past (Because he was just inducted in the HoF). Who made the one we see now??? I'm not bad with photoshop, but I'm not great either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On that note I've actually never made a poll before....I'm sure it's not hard to figure out but if someone else wans to make it, go for it. With the Bears being offensive oriented now a days I vote for one with Forte/Marshall/Jeffery/Bennett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scs787 Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 Here's what I just threw together.... Not great, but it's somethin. Need to touch up Marshalls arm just a bit. I could try to whip something up with the legends if that's what we want. I encourage others to give it a shot as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably will have to get Admins to vote on it as they are sorta the "founding fathers" of the site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
