You should make it the blue arrow, pointing downwards.

Nice going, though. *nods*

I'm using the forum default and I can't see it at the moment.

Ditto Mr. Wizard.

I haven't any art skills. If you want a better icon, make one.

EDIT: I put it in the EoFF Default system by resaving that one template under *every style*...so now I have to go take the Quick Reply out of EoFF Default again ><

*saves arrow from threadicons*
*turns*
*attaches arrow*

Wow, I have art skils.

Steal it. Quick before downloads.com, uhm, convinces your conscious to convince you not to steal it!

Actually quick reply isn't in the quick reply format either. I want my quick reply!

So now downloading threads will use a little less bandwidth and a whole lot more database queries and CPU cycles to generate these text-pages, right? Unless making it easier to download threads convinces more people they should be downloading more threads, in which case we'll end up with MORE bandwidth being used. Oh well. I particularly like the way the text isn't hard-wrapped at 80 columns, so that opening it in a browser looks very terrible. *negativty negativity negativity*

Actually, I dont think it will make anyone download more threads, simply because there arent many that need to be downloaded. Since I joined EoFF, I have downloaded only one thread and I dont think I will download any other thread soon. Id like to have it there because when I downloaded that thread, I took me a couple of tries before I got it right. And that means more bandwith and CPU cycles.

Yeah.

[The Man]

Yes, the quick reply is seriously f0x0red, and the area with Download Thread isn't showing up for me at all. Thankfully I know how to modify a URL to make it a download thread link, but that's not the point. This clearly needs to be remedied as soon as humanly possible.

I don't think it's all that critical. Regular reply still works fine.

[The Man]

It sort of defeats the purpose of having a quick reply template set though, doesn't it? :S

Quick Reply was the first really adminny thing and I want it back.

Dammit, Bleys, this is all your fault! Fix it!

Ya know what's better than that Download Thread hack? Clicking "Show Printable Version," having all posts display on one page, and then downloading that page. Forgot about that.

Ahh well, the other way's good too.
