    Please consider changing the icon for sticky threads. In some forums like Weather, the sticky list extends a good bit down the page, changing the thread icon from the usual envelope to something like this

    would make it easier to see the start of active threads

    To be honest, I thing that the word 'Sticky' by the thread title is good enough.

    I was under the impression that sticky threads were supposed to be cut back to 2 or so. Certainly that's what Mods in the cycling forum said they had to do when removing some.

    How come some forums have lots while others are mandated to have very few?

    Yeah, 10 stickies seems mad! 3 works best for touch.boards, but an extra one or two every so often should be grand.

    On topic: No opinions either way on a new logo.

    As far as I remember it was never an official "You Must Do This" rule, more a general guideline. Some forums might have found it hard to cut the stickies down to three and some moderators might not have gotten around to the cull or forgotten all about it.
