Do you have a setting, character, plot, art, or other notion that you wish to put on the Internet? This is the Internet! Whee!

Name names might get too long for that to be feasible, but it might be cool if something tried to make sure they only take up like two lines, maybe?

I believe the username thing is simply a hack I put together cause it was bothering me that does "if more than one line, reduce size from 16px to 14px. If still more than one line, reduce to 12px. Then just hope it worked." I can certainly extend the naive logic to names, though something more sophisticated might be nice eventually.

Ok but on mobile they're never wrapping to two lines, just getting greedier and greedier for horizontal space until their box overflows the layout and takes three entire extra lines.

This messes with the reply box layout when I try to post as Novelty.

Oh! The layout's slightly different on mobile; might need to add some CSS to the mobile optimized section. Got a screenshot? :)

This imgur gallery should show you Jeffy (a short name) and Enthusiastic Seeker of Novelty (a long name) in both display and composition modes.

There was a skylight empire thread that wasn't on the index when the index got scraped, it's there now, could you scrape it?

(It's this one)

(and is there some way to make the scraper not duplicate all my icons? I can totally come up with neatly formatted lists of which URLs correspond to which other URLs among relevant journals, if that'll help.)

If you get me such a list, I will prevent duplication <3 ideally "dreamwidth url" to "constellation id".

Scraping will happen later, I'm drunk at a bar with coworkers because my mother is being unusually bitchy. Did you know I'm a terrible person because I dared to go to a work event tonight when we still had wedding details to talk about?!?! I mean, I was already half a hour late for the 6:30 event because I wanted to make the 6pm hour long call, and we only had things to talk about left because she got the time wrong for her own call and was HALF AN HOUR LATE, but gee. HOW DARE I.

Mojitos are happening and I am not sorry.

App seems to be unstable, I'm seeing out of memory errors in the logs.
