Happy New Year from me and the rest of the mods.

The festive break provided time to try out a few design changes to a sandboxed version of this sub. Over the next few days we'll be testing these changes on the live site and during this time there may be a few brief anomalies with elements such as the post flairs so bear with us.

The most notable changes will be:

• Revised text in the sidebar.
• More colorful post flairs (if that's even possible).
• Clickable flair headings (in the sidebar) to only show matching posts (tag filtering).
• A few minor css tweaks; mainly to font sizes and spacing.

The overall look and feel of the sub will not change much. We have looked at the revisions on desktop, laptop, tablet and phone devices and in various (PC) browsers; things seem OK, but if you spot anything strange, or have any constructive feedback whatsoever, please add a comment to this post.

Tag Filtering Notes:

Filtering works by taking 'n' posts (based on your preference setting) and then hiding any that do not match the tag filter, but the function still considers that it has displayed a page of 'n' posts; the outcome is that as you use the next/previous buttons, you may see filtered pages that only show a few (or no) posts. - it's a documented Reddit engine thing; you'll cope!

To stop using the filter, use "CLICK HERE TO RESET TAG FILTER" in the sidebar to open a new view.

Prior to this recent update, some flair/tag categories had a common color as a result of sharing an internal descriptor; consequently, some filtered lists will contain a mix of tags. From this point forward, each tag has a unique descriptor.
