Postbit or Postbit Legacy?

**Jirendi** · 03-25-2008, 02:55 PM

hey i wonder what you use and what you like the best in a forum,

Postbit where the username and that stuff is above the thread content?
OR:
Postbit Legacy where the username and that is to the left of the thread content?

I use the postbit legacy, but I like both.

I personally like legacy more, but either works fine for me.

Legacy postbit, hands down.

I'm using the horizontal postbit on my WoW forum but I'm considering changing it. I like them both pretty well.

Both have their advantages

I postbit only because legacy is more likely to cause vertical stretching of the posts. (Like what is happening in this forum) Though I can stand to see either way.

I guess it depends on the forum theme, on my site it is set to postbit legacy because we were using phpbb and it had postbit legacy style and I didn't wanted to change that and confuse users.

Luckily my forum is pretty young so I don't think it would be a big deal to change, but I haven't decided yet. Since I don't really have a preference I just want to do what the users like.
