i'm looking at the iF page and theres two different types of forum descriptions...

one is like [ link ] [ link ] [ link ] and another is [ link | link | link ]

whats the difference? does it have to do with grouping? like, the first set does not relate to each other but the second set does?

Quantum-locked when observed.

Moved to InvisionFree Discussion because this has nothing to do with programming. :ermm:

I don't think there's much of a difference, I think it just depends on when they were added. :r

Unless Seth has some sort of evil organisational scheme mixed into all of this, which I wouldn't put past him. :seth:

thats just a difference in the Forum Description...Probably its because an Admin added one of them once and then added the other some time later.

Yeah, I think it's just a screwup.
Though, I suppose it could be due to the Code Index not being a forum? :unsure:

Which do you prefer, the [ ] [ ] or the [ | ] ?

No, PhranK, I dont think that has anything to do with it... the ] [ and the | are just markers...

Well, yeah, but what I meant was, Seth or whoever migh have used the different style to denote the fact that that's the only forum description with a link to a topic, rather than to a forum. :/

I doubt it though. ;)

how about the separator between code snippets and code requests? :P

Would look goofy with 2 styles within the same line?

Personally I like [ | ] because it clearly seperates and it looks neater. ^_^

Plus, if you're on dialup, it will load noticeably faster, since it requires fewer characters. :lol:
