I've been getting rusty waiting for Threads 6.5 to hit the streat, so I decided to
spruce things up a little. I'm gonna roll any changes that I make to the templates in 6.4 over to 6.5 and release it as a mod complete with graphics.
Thanks!
I even
split up the showflat posts so a really wide post wouldn't cause all the posts in a thread to go wide. It's something I've seen JC do, although I don't know if I did it the same way he does (I didn't view the source on his pages, I just went into the showflat.tmpl file and figured out how to do it on my own).
I've reverse engineered several of your design changes

Do I get inspirational credit? LOL Funny thing is they have been up for download for a while now
Sure
Nothing personal, I just like doing my own scripting -that's why I've never used your templates.
seperating the posts was a good idea, but doesn't it add a bunch of load when you have several posts or more?
I don't understand what you mean by "load". There is some additional html -sure. But the number of table cells remains the same for the post, the only change is the number of table tags and the html for the table wrapper. If you are viewing 50 posts per page you'll spend more time waiting for the data to come out of the database than you will waiting for the html to go from client to server...
Last, but not least, if you have Zlib compression enabled in your config (and you should) then the added html won't make any difference...
I was just thinking it would be more bandwith.
Nope, would be the same. Actually it loads faster since the tables are less complex.
