Hybrid postbit

Hybrid postbit

Function

Both the legacy and the classic postbit have their advantages. So why not combine them. The legacy itself sometimes seems to big with smaller posts.

This is how the hybrid postbit might look like.

Not a good idea to have username in the middle of the post. I'd suggest you place the avatar or other extra info there instead. Because a user usually looks into top left corner first, the most important info (the username) must be there :)

You can create 100's of variations, add css classes, etc

this is just a framework to play with.

I like the idea. I tweaked mine a bit.

Of course some tweaking looks neccessary though. Installed.

You're right if you look at the live demo, it's also different. It's just the idea.

With small posts the legacy looks off a bit and the basic one isn't that cool so why not meet in the middle.

If people need help with tweaks just let me know

Drop in a screenshot or a link to a live demo of your final result !!!!!!!!!!

Curious if anyone can tell what I need to do to keep my vertical part of the postbit from squishing up, what I need to adjust or add to keep it set at the width it's supposed to be.

It's too narrow now and making the text in the info below wrap and the whole thing stretch down, which defeats the purpose of me adding the hybrid mode; to reduce the vertical length of the side heh. For example; the age and gender used to be on the same line.

You need to be a member of your site to view the demo???? Why did you even bother to post a link then? Honestly, do you think I'm going to take the time to register? I'm older and more willing and even I won't do it, you think someone in thier 20's will?

You don't need to register to see posts or most of the forums.

second.... I think it got smushed cause your horital postbit has images that are too wide and forcing your legacy to smush. its being constrained by your whole thread wide (forumdisplay?).

ie: try reducing size of the purple and pink rank images.

Does anyone have vbPlaza installed and is running Hybrid Postbit as well? Our TechSupport went to install this today, but said he was concerned because it's editing/modifying/deleting stuff from vbPlaza ....
