I think it would be nice to have indented annotations. It adds just the slightest bit more organization and structure to any old list (which is what the annotations are now) without clunky html-emulated [+] and [-] and reloading of actual threading.
So, for those who like big laundry lists of comments,
it seems very little different.
You get all the comments in one load, you can still respond to multiple comments in one annotation, etc. There is just a slight indentation on some annotations.
For those who would like to see threaded annotations, this happens to look somewhat like it!
Everybody's happy.

Beware of un-indented consequences. |
|
|
THE INDENTATION WILL ONLY BE ONE PIXEL. |
|
|
Besides, everyone's comments are *already scrunched over* when they are right next to the idea. No one complains about that. |
|
|
It would take an ass-load of levels to indent annotations *to where they already are* when they appear next to the idea. And those are the first ideas to appear! SO YOU CAN'T COMPLAIN ABOUT THAT. |
|
|
Also, each comment would have an annotate link beneath it. That's how halfbakery.com knows how much to indent. |
|
|
How about a system that changes upper to lower case? |
|
|
Only one pixel? Why bother with something that small? Gotta vote against this one. Anything that serves to make the bakery look like other threaded message boards is evil and dastardly. |
|
|
I was kidding about the One Pixel. But it doesn't have to be very big. |
|
|
Remember, there is no mention of changing annotation locations here, it's just indentation. |
|
|
Annotations are still listed chronologically. |
|
|
indented as compared to what? |
|
|
And I can complain about anything I want, missy. |
|
|
I have to throw in with the rest of the crowd on this. I'm not quite grasping how "It adds just the slightest bit more organization and structure". Unless annotations are linked to one another as with threaded annotations and the indentation is controlled the same way as with actual threaded annotations, what will determine the level of indentation for an annotation? |
|
|
So far, it sounds like the proposal is for threaded annotations. I guess that means I'm missing something since "THIS IS NOT THREADED ANNOTATIONS". |
|
|
Please stop pulling on threads. You're unraveling the whole idea. |
|
|
This whole run of puns is hanging on by a thread. |
|
|
[lawpoop] - you spend enough time griping about the layout of the half-bakery - I'm really starting to wonder about how your browser is set up. |

This is not intended as an insult. I went to visit my sister a few months back, and introduced her to the 'bakery. We brought it up on her machine, and it looked terrible. We looked at one of my little ideas, and it came out to about 40 screens long, with fifteen character lines. |

You might be trying to fix a problem the rest of us don't see. |
