Should we make the green tick work the same as the red cross?

    I love the red cross but agree with Dalkirst that the post should be hidden or greyed out once the red cross is applied.

    I'm happy with the green tick, but wish it would override the red cross on the main page. (so we have either a red cross or a green tick not a green tick next to a pink cross in other words). Perhaps I'm being a bit pernickety, there, sorry if that's the case)

    Thank you for your efforts :A

    Having worked with this today - my only gripe is when you have ticked the green tick - I dont like that the red x is showing fainter. Its sending my eyes funny. On the main page I would prefer a red x or green tick as would be easier to see at a glance.

    What would be nice, just from an aethestically pleasing point of view, would be the red cross disappearing on the thread title once the green tick has been clicked. After all, you can't simultaneously skip and enter a comp. Then the page would line up nicely with each comp having a tick or a cross all in a nice vertical line.

    ^^This! I also don't like that when you've Xed you just see the X, but when youve ticked, you see the X and the tick!!

    I love the new red cross as I tend to skip a great deal. I think the green tick option would be good too as there are some comps in websites such as "mother and baby", "yours", "Top sante", "pregnancy and birth" etc which usually can be entered in bulk and would be nice not have to click on each thread to open it and click the green button to keep track!
  • I would like the red cross to make the post disappear, so there is not as much information on the page & makes it easier to scroll through competitions. The green tick is fine where it is.

    I can't see any red crosses on the page. Could see them okay in the individual posts when they were there.

    Okay now - I logged out and back in again and they were there.

    Great idea by the way.

    Please leave the green tick as it is.

    :hello: Good Luck everyone !:hello:
  • I have to agree with most of the replies, the green tick is fine where it is. You have to go inside to enter competition and so can do it them when you tick thanks.

    I like the idea of the red tick too. thanks

    I'm happy with the green tick as it is until mine disappeared, hopefully it will return after tonights updates.

    Happy with the green tick box as it is as like to tick the thanks box, but sometimes it could be handy if you fail to tick it and it would save going back, more so if you have my poor old laptop!But so happy with the red box now I will sit on the fence with the green.
