Post icons instead of text?

Yeah that shouldn't be difficult, the userbars manage to work nicely on all skins!

except the 'HabboxVIP' one needs to be trimmed of transparency because it looks odd next to the IT Crowd one ;<

This will be bad for the mobile skin...

The prefixes were designed to replace subforums and to help with searches since you can search by prefix in the advanced search thingamabob (does anyone even do that? ). At a time where we're trying to cut down on forums, getting rid of them and making subforums is mental imo.

I like the idea of pictures though, if we're trying to modernise the forum having text representing things rather than images seems a bit old fashioned.

Oh no please don't get rid of prefixes all together . Yes I sometimes use them in searches and yes they are better than just relying on thread titles in sections with many specific topics.

Sure it could help modernise the forum once other things happen too, but not at this stage just by itself. If you make a random little change like this it'll stick out like a sore thumb while the rest of the forum is still stuck in the past, comparatively.

Anyway I don't care, just please don't take away prefixes completely. Thanks.

Maybe this change could be brought in with the new themes? :-)
