Fannish Browsing Tools, Part 2

[gnatkip]

I don't know if this is a good time to make this post, but then I don't know when IS a good time, what with all the hell and all the handbaskets. It's a list of some bells and whistles for LJ, LJ clones, and other fannish places. See also Part OneI use some of these a lot; some not at all. I am not endorsing any of them. As with anything you

Ah, this post is so very much love. <3 I just installed about half the stuff from this one and the previous one. *g* I was curious--how did you change the colors on the ljwho links? I'm test-running it now and sort of hate the red/black/green scheme. I also really appreciate you sharing the modifications to the comments in ?style=mine in the last post, because that was exactly what I wanted from the script.

I, too, love the way the little contextual hover tells me if I'm in a community or not. It makes my compulsive leaving/re-joining of communities so much easier. I think the only thing I really wish it would have is a link to userpics; 90% of the time I'm more interested in looking at people's icons before I even go to their profile. But I'm just kind of rambling, now. Modifying browser space is just too much fun.

"Modifying browser space is just too much fun." I KNOW, RIGHT?! Hee!

Oh yay! Did the ?style=mine changes work for you?

The hover does link to userpics, if you click on their default. Unless I'm misunderstanding. I wish it linked to their friends page, though.

About ljwho: It's been so long since I fiddled with it, I'd forgotten what I did. ;) Ok, near the top of the code, there's this:

var color = "#88FF88;";
if (!realName) {
color = "#FF8888";
}
child.setAttribute("style",
"cursor: pointer; " +
"margin: 4px; font-weight: bold; font-size: 8px; " +
"background-color: black; color: " + color + ";");
if (realName) {
child.setAttribute("title", realName);
}

And then at the bottom of the code there's this:

if (realName != "") {
thisSpan.style.color = "#88FF88;";
} else {
thisSpan.style.color = "#FF8888";
}
In both places, #88FF88 is the text color for names that have been annotated, and #FF8888 is the text color for names that have not yet been annotated. You can change these to whatever you want. (Change them both places

Oooooh, this is awesome! Thank you so much for sharing that! I love the very visible differentiation between folks with notes and folks without. *admires your coding mastery*

And thus far the my style changes have worked perfectly! I've been adoring the not having to constantly hit my bookmarklet to change every comment page manually.

Hee, boutell did all the awesome parts; I just fiddled with it.

I'm so glad it worked! <3
