As I see it, all options currently change the text of the work skin. I.e. font style, size, gaps between paragraphs - their effect is visible in the text of the story. (Correct me please, if I'm wrong.) What I would like being able to change, for example, is (talking about the default layout now):
- the font size/style of the menu on the left side - the font size/style of the buttons (profile, subscribe...) as well as the menu on top (my home, fandoms, works, log out...) - font size/style of story info frames (with tags and notes they can take up to half of the site) - and in connection with this, perhaps an option to chose between the current size of symbols and a smaller version. - Being able to change the color of the header would be great, yes! - Being able to change the background color of the menu on the left (it doesn't change with background color) - Or having a simple button to upload a header image (although I'm not sure how this would impact traffic and server space and since it's a text archive I understand that it's not a pressing matter or even necessary).
For me, it's mainly the site skin that needs working on. Just a few more options to tweak the menu font and some color options.
Another thing that caught my eye (not sure whom to tell): when there are several stories listed, there is a bar at the bottom of each story showing word count, chapters etc. Perhaps it's because of my browser, but for me it's hard to see at one glance how many chapters a story has, for example. That's because there is hardly any space between the word count and the word "chapters". My brain constantly tries to tell me that this story has 6,951 chapters and 32 Kudos, when it's 6,951 words and 32 comments. ;) Perhaps putting some more space or a divider between the seperate figures?
... I feel like having written a Christmas wishlist now, heh. Thank you for taking the time to think about this!
