Prefixes Now in Place for the Kindle Forum
MR is working to make the Kindle Forum more "user friendly" -- in particular to introduce some tools to help viewers quickly locate threads on a particular sub-topic.
When you post a new thread, you can now use the "Prefix" drop down box to add a sub-topic to your thread (Accessories, Content, Firmware Update, Hacks, K for Mac or PC, and Troubleshooting) to highlight its content. If your post is a general topic, then you don't need a prefix. You can also use prefixes to sort your view of the Kindle forum. For example, if you are looking for recommendations on cases or skins, you can now select "Accessories" from the Prefix drop down menu and then click on the "Show Threads" button. Only those threads with the "Accessories" prefix will display in your browser. The MR moderating team is currently going through the existing posted threads, adding prefixes. Please be patient. If you have any ideas or suggestions for additional prefixes, please PM me (click on my name to bring up the menu and click on "Send Private Message) or post your suggestions in this thread.

If the colors are not bright enough - they can be changed.

the orange stands out!!! maybe play with something other than the blues and greens? they kind of blend into the site background? to me at least? (anyone can jump in here!)
the color on the accessories really fades into the background. that is one of the first newbie questions Last edited by kindlekitten; 07-04-2010 at 03:44 PM. |

The colors on the Prefixes need to be toned down - too garish.

The majority of the prefixes are now in place. Please let us know
1. if any threads have been mis-labeled, 2. threads that need labels 3. if the prefixes help you in viewing/sorting threads You can post a response in this thread or send me a PM. |
