I like to look at threads with no replies to see if I can help. Making the 0 in bold red helps to quickly locate them, even though there is the "Unanswered Threads" link.

It was my understanding that if somebody gives you reputation, it automatically gives a vote. On this post, I got given rep while (I think) my current rating was still 0. If that's the case, shouldn't it be 1? or have I just misunderstood this?

Seems to be a bug, did the same on this post.

But fixed.

I like that it the voting buttons were moved over, looks a lot better. Also, why are the buttons now gray, and only color when you vote? Seems weird that way.

As people said ... too much criticism that they were too distracting.

Cool , but now it looks like the buttons have something do with the #number

*sigh* I can never win, can I?

I have to agree with jbennet, but they do look better out of the way and grayed out.


I think that a newbie would be confused by it being in its current position, but a regular member wouldn't. So it doesn't necessarily matter that it is in that position.

Keep it like this for the time being.

[edit]
Can you explain why the thread vote score is dictated only by the number of votes the very FIRST post gets and not the ENTIRE thread?

Im pretty sure that was because of complaints dani was getting that a thread could be pulled down by a stupid post.
