Feedback Pips in modern tempStyles

[Dionicio3]

I was wondering if there's a possibility of getting pips in modern tempStyles. One of the main reasons I'm still on the throwback style is because of the pips. I created a quick mockup on what the standard user pip would look like in the modern themes using Inkscape, and I wouldn't mind trying to make them all (though I do have to polish them a bit)



Just a thought, though I would love for this to be implemented

(ps, allow svg uploads)

Honestly, same here. I'm not particularly nostalgic towards the ‘throwback’ theme (apart from the general classic web design look), since I hadn't yet signed up to GBAtemp when it was in use. But I do remember pips and miss them in the modern styles dearly.

Besides, I think the old system of showing post- and like count as a reference on someone's mini profile card next to their posts was a way better reference point as to their time spent on here and potential expertise than the new level system is, especially since you can just…spend your XP on a month of ad-free which makes it potentially useless in determining a user's credibility. As-is, this should just be a metric that only you can see for yourself and not others.

I've been really missing the pips ever since tempStyle 4 got released, tbf. The admins did say that they'll maybe come back, but unfortunately nothing came out of it

nothing is stopping you from putting them back in your signature tho

ALSO, realizing I actually first made that pip in 2016 - it's been a full 10 years
