So the reply box will actually be hidden in continuities you don't have permission to post in; the constellation just has mostly sandbox stuff at the moment. I will put a better design for sandbox threads on my list :) Seems like "join thread" should be hidable by existing authors, for instance, or maybe there's a way to invite people to a thread? Mmm. Options. I will consider them.
@Moriwen that's actually intentional; if you're in a thread you've posted in, it always defaults to the last character you used. You can of course change it before posting, but it doesn't persist across page loads. Is it horribly annoying?

I'm think she meant that when she's changing from character X to character Y, she reloads the page and it shows character X again, but when she tries to swap to character Y again it fails to load, presumably because of weird form saving?

If it is weird form saving, browser and platform might be relevant.

Throne 3D parsed correctly. Firefox, Mac. I can live with it if most people aren't having the issue.

Oooh interesting, thanks for parsing help, I will poke at it later. Thanks for the report!

I definitely feel like, for sandboxes, "join thread"/"leave thread" are super useful things. Maybe for continuities too, depending. Because cameos do happen, and/but for any given sandbox most of the logged-in users reading it probably aren't participants and will never need that reply form.
What do you mean by "join thread should be hideable"?

Have poked! Same fundamental problem as the one where a random space appeared; Firefox tries to be helpful when you refresh and it causes my code to be confused. For now, if you last posted with character A and you want character B, fix is to switch to something else C then back to B; will see what I can do with Javascript to fix it.
@Kappa meant like... you can have a Join Thread option appear to everyone by default, or only if you turn it on, or only appear to certain people? Basically, it should be controllable by the author.

Oh, hey, feature request. I often have icons that are not in any gallery, and want to add one or two to an existing gallery. Currently when I do this I have to scroll all the way through all of my icons that /are/ in galleries to get to the "add icons" button. Could we have a second "add icons" button below the unassigned icons but above the ones in galleries?

Did a thing; editing replies should no longer mark the post as updated unless it's the most recent reply. This is harder for the top post itself; it will come later.
There should be a second button now.
Still working on the Firefox bug; was hoping using form labels would fix it, but that would be far too helpful and rational for Firefox xD

Bug report: I accidentally changed my avatar (that was a wetware problem, not a software problem) and then I changed it back, but both times they directed me to error pages before the thing happened.
