in reply to Hilighting Newest Nodes (implemented)

Tanktalus, could you please prepare a CSS patch so this is opt-out and not opt-in? I concur with those who feel its too intrusive by default. Alternatively a user setting to turn it on maybe. Its up to you, but I think it should be opt-in not opt-out.

    Adding user settings are far beyond my meager skill as a PMDevil. Would you rather see the highlighting patch change the class to NN-highlight, or go through and find any/all highlight CSS and remove it (thus affecting Saints in our Book, too)? Something tells me that more people would appreciate the latter than the former anyway.

      Either set up the common CSS so the highlighting is disabled for NN, or change it to be NN-Highlight as you say. And trust me user settings are trivial to work with, dont be intimidated by them. :-)

      I think more people would appreciate you just hand over your idea to someone who is capable of adding user settings, instead of forcing users to do a lot of work to revert to a situation they are perfectly happy with.
