So happy about this. I agree with changing the icon. A sticky honey pot is cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sticky-posts-now-a-bit-more-obvious#post-9860 Sat, 05 Nov 2011 04:07:36 +0000 MH.Abroad 9860@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the honeypot idea. Most people would catch the "stickyness". Cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sticky-posts-now-a-bit-more-obvious#post-9715 Fri, 04 Nov 2011 16:46:18 +0000 MsMini 9715@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like the honeypot idea as well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sticky-posts-now-a-bit-more-obvious#post-9673 Fri, 04 Nov 2011 15:16:26 +0000 Wondermommy 9673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mr. Bee, I think it's obvious enough. Honey is sticky. I think most would make the connection easy enough. </p> <p>I went looking for some inspiration pics of Classic Winnie the Pooh with his hunny pot, but couldn't find any where the hunny pot wasn't too small to see without a magnifying glass. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sticky-posts-now-a-bit-more-obvious#post-9635 Fri, 04 Nov 2011 14:31:20 +0000 theotherstark 9635@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love this! Great idea :) </p> <p>and YES @wondermommy! Totally love the honeypot icon idea :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sticky-posts-now-a-bit-more-obvious#post-9633 Fri, 04 Nov 2011 14:26:37 +0000 mrbee 9633@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wondermommy - That was exactly what I was thinking! A sticky hunny pot. :-)</p> <p>But I was worried that it wasn't obvious enough? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sticky-posts-now-a-bit-more-obvious#post-9630 Fri, 04 Nov 2011 14:23:41 +0000 Wondermommy 9630@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe like a honeycomb/honeypot icon? 'Cause it's sticky? Too obvious/cheesetastic? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sticky-posts-now-a-bit-more-obvious#post-9610 Fri, 04 Nov 2011 13:55:33 +0000 mrsjyw 9610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee I agree with @chopsuey119's suggestion, maybe a simple post-it in the overall website color scheme? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sticky-posts-now-a-bit-more-obvious#post-9605 Fri, 04 Nov 2011 13:52:40 +0000 chopsuey 9605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee if you google "post it" and look at the images there are some cute ideas. I like the ones with the edges that curl up and that have push pins in them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sticky-posts-now-a-bit-more-obvious#post-9593 Fri, 04 Nov 2011 13:43:17 +0000 Andrea 9593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i think a post it note would look really cute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sticky-posts-now-a-bit-more-obvious#post-9589 Fri, 04 Nov 2011 13:40:43 +0000 Boogs 9589@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree a "sticky" would be super cute in addition to being self-explanatory. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sticky-posts-now-a-bit-more-obvious#post-9583 Fri, 04 Nov 2011 13:29:27 +0000 duetletterpress 9583@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>nice! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sticky-posts-now-a-bit-more-obvious#post-9582 Fri, 04 Nov 2011 13:28:49 +0000 HabesBabe 9582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love it!! And I agree w/ ChopSuey-- a "sticky" Post-it note looking thing would be better! Or a different background color-- since they'll always be on top, a little bit of "umph" is all they need. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sticky-posts-now-a-bit-more-obvious#post-9573 Fri, 04 Nov 2011 13:07:11 +0000 mrbee 9573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsJYW and @chopsuey119 - Any chance you could suggest some specific icons you'd like us to use? That would be super helpful! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sticky-posts-now-a-bit-more-obvious#post-9571 Fri, 04 Nov 2011 13:06:37 +0000 Adira 9571@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely more obvious, but I do agree with @Mrs. JYW that I'm not sure they quite fit. Is there a way to make them more washed-out to kind of tone down their in-your-face-ness? Then they'd still be obvious because of the icons without being quite so standoutish. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sticky-posts-now-a-bit-more-obvious#post-9566 Fri, 04 Nov 2011 13:03:14 +0000 chopsuey 9566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely like the idea of an icon.. think an actual "sticky" might be cuter though. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sticky-posts-now-a-bit-more-obvious#post-9562 Fri, 04 Nov 2011 12:55:42 +0000 BSB 9562@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh, I like this. Thanks, Blushink and Mr.Bee! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sticky-posts-now-a-bit-more-obvious#post-9556 Fri, 04 Nov 2011 12:50:11 +0000 mrsjyw 9556@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It is definitely easier to see the "stickies" now. However, while I love the bee icon - I'm not sure that it aesthetically fits with the overall ambience of the boards page. Maybe, I'm being too finicky, but just my two cents! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sticky-posts-now-a-bit-more-obvious#post-9552 Fri, 04 Nov 2011 12:46:32 +0000 mrbee 9552@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Blushink suggested that we make sticky posts a bit more obvious:</p> <p>"I noticed that there are a few stickies. Maybe they can be displayed differently, or maybe have a light yellow background. I just find it hard to see them even if they have [sticky] in front of it."</p> <p><a href="http://suggestions.hellobee.com/topic/make-sticky-post-more-obvious" rel="nofollow">http://suggestions.hellobee.com/topic/make-sticky-post-more-obvious</a></p> <p>To help address this, we added a bee icon to all sticky posts. You can see an example here:</p> <p><a href="http://boards.hellobee.com" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com</a></p> <p>Let us know what you think. And thanks to blushink for suggesting the idea! </p>
