Linked to by/links to pages?

December 29, 2010 9:05 PM

I noticed my Linked to by / Links to page has changed again.

For a while, I had a page with user icons grouped alphabetically. I liked that, it made it easier to pick someone out (at the expense of scrolling down the list.)

Now, we seem to have gone back to the the all-text cloud of usernames in a jumble, which is horrible to try and parse. Could we at least have the all-text version formatted better, so that it doesn't look like a manic-phase, endlessly run-on sentence?

Really? Nothing has changed on my end.

Okay, i cleared my cache, and now see a full/Compact switch. Don't know when that happened. However, my complaint with the all-text list still stands.

I think this might be a case where one person's manic run-on sentence is another person's simple and compact list. We have two views so people who like whitespace and images can have them and people who don't like those things don't have to see them. And if you like both you can switch back and forth.

Yeah. I guess I jumped the gun a little- been having a bad day. Close it up, guys.
