    Ahhh, thank you sooo much. This will save so much time. Also I am so impressed with how quickly you have implemented this change. I only posted the request a couple of weeks ago.

    Good luck everyone!

    Guess I'm the only one finding this a bit OTT then. I was actually happier with just the red x and green tick on the post itself - I can generally tell from the title if I want to enter, and on the odd occasion when I read the terms and realise it's not for me then I hit the red x.
    Having a grey cross by every competition post just seems a bit uneccessary and cluttering.
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    hi, the thing was we had to open the comp post before to tick on the redx even if we weren't interested in the comp posted, this way we can hover over the comp title/read the post & not waste time opening the post just to click on the skip redx button,
    am thinking it'll also help for peeps who looked for high hit comps which before because we had to open the post would add to the figures making the post look more popular than maybe it was, this way peeps won't be opening the post & helping the viewer figures more feasible :)

    Thanks, this is much more useful on the index than it was on the threads.

    could the skip button not be a different colour - say Blue or something darker - us peeps with eye probs cant tell if its skipped or crossed for not entered ? I do like the idea though so much love for the hard work :)
    :DPle'ma an bysva?:D
  • Am I the only person who can't see the red x boxes? I can see what it should look like from what fermi has posted in this thread but I'm not getting them. I wonder if I should be changing something in my settings to make them appear?
    Thank you so much to everyone who post & help with comps! :j
