I also didn’t knew about the “http://typophile.com/tracker”.
I bet I’m going to use often from now on!

I guess not 100% of posts

I guess not 100% of posts ran through RSS but only the starting posts. Or did you mean 100% of topics? [I use the main one: http://www.typophile.com/rss]

Hmmm. I also don’t know. I

Hmmm. I also don’t know. I thought 100% of posts ran through css. I guess the thing to do is ask Christian. No?

Dunno how.

Stephen, is this something I need to do or can you do it?

Count me as an RSS user who periodically checks my tracker page to see replies for my participated threads.

Here’s a bit of irony: I think those who access via RSS might not see this poll because “Poll Content” is not part of Typophile’s main RSS feed.

Count me as poutless!

Hey, we are up to 81 votes! That’s great. There is not much time left I think, so get those votes in while ye may!

You’ve been a victim of subtle internet humor. Was joking about the volunteer bit. It would be a lot of work. But if they did do it, the sponsorship type could continue to be flash (SIFR like in the forums so that it would degrade).

Honestly given that the flash is only on the homepage, I don’t think the benefit outweighs the effort required to change it.

I do not want to start a pout session. Typophile is too good for that.

Randy I wouldn’t be quite as quick as that to ask for volunteers. Probably Punchcut would be the ones to make such a request. I am sure they will read your suggestion though. My opinion is that flash is pretty ubiquitous now and it is needed for the type in title stuff they are doing. They seem pretty committed to that. So there is no overwhelming reason to go JS.

I would like “new

I would like “new window” functionality with the flash bits as well.

Seems like the homepage could be redone using JS instead of flash for the motion. It would make it more accessible for sure. Any volunteers?

I RSS it through Feed Demon, that way I can subscribe to individual threads above general posts, and I get told (frequently) there’s too much to read and I really don’t have to. I usually ignore it. :)

I did *not* know about the tracker (sneaky TypoDaemons you!) so I’ll give that a go.

I use the general tracker,

I use the general tracker, then the personal tracker, then wonder why there is no email notification...

I am talking about the homepage as well.

The headline fonts are fine.

The headline fonts are fine. I actually groaned and moaned about the homepage :-)
