Closing a fic


Sandcaster

Recommended Posts

Someone mentioned that it would be a damned nice thing if we could see at a glance when a fiction is closed from the list of fictions. And that made me think (frightening, I know): we can.

I would like to recommend that, when we finish a fiction, the originating poster edit the first post to change the message icon to the blue arrow, such as I have used in this thread. It stands out, and would serve as a nice symbol to folks that a fic is completed.

I'm going to go ahead and do this with recent fics of mine, in an effort to start the trend.

As we no longer have the little blue-arrow icon, I would propose that closing a fic be done by simply choosing the new "no icon" choice. I've gone back through and done this with the various closed Timeslip, Ptesan-Wi, Sandcaster and Crusader fics; I think I've got them all.

There's always the "Complete" tag like I used for Family Apprehensions. While the no icon works, I think it looks weird, and it doesn't "pop" out at me. With the extra space for the titles that the new forum gives us, slapping a [Complete] is more eye-catching to me.
