I've just made Testing and Science (previously SE Square) the official board style

It's nowhere near done, and you can keep seeing my changes by staying on "SE Square Testing" - but be warned, that one will be unstable and prone to have site-breaking errors

Any suggestions, comments, etc should go here. My main focus for now will be the thread icons. Grox has suggested we go with the same icons as mAL had, any complaints?

Well, what do you propose for variations of that? (E.g. for hot topics, stickies, locked, etc)

I shall start working on that since I have been idle recently. May I please have a list of all kinds of variations?

REFINE: I was going to fabricate the hot topic by using a rotating Aperture Science logo, but we are using the old logo. :/

What if the hot topics had the lines in the logo ring scrolling upwards, sort of like a heat haze?

That last pun wasn't intended, honest.

I pretty much had this idea too, so I tried doing it:

Why not both?

mAL has old aperture symbols as well; maybe we can reuse those for sticky topics, and the normal topics use the 70's logo.

Why? We already decided on the current design; we all voted.

EDIT: Unless we could make it another option, in which case that'd be neat!

Yes, that was my idea ... Let people choose..
I was thinking since we use the old aperture innovations logo, a more "old styled" design would be fitting too...

Could we use Aperture's oldest logo somehow?

That's why I wanted the old mAL icons; they use that for sticky threads.
