::Hm.  I guess so.  By the way, could you make an example where you turn them 90 degrees the ''other'' way?  I think that might look better, as it would seem that the article is the centre of the page, and the bottom of the affiliates' icons respects that, even if they are on the side. --[[User:Svip|Svip]] 17:01, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

::Yeah, I can do that. The only downside is that the SSF text will then be upside-down. And general convention puts the start of a word at the top when rotated, but sure. I'll do it later today. --[[User:Buddy13|Buddy]] 17:29, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

Discussion

Taking the discussion from here, as to remain somewhat on topic. I am personally a big fan of the muted icons idea. That could most definitely work. It would obviously require some rewriting for how the affiliates links work, but I'd say it is doable.

The other part of the discussion - the 90 degree turns part - was not really a favourite of mine. It seemed odd at best. I cannot really see what purpose it would serve. --Svip 13:42, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

I didn't intend that the whole list be rotated, only the images, and the list be changed to an inline list. Thus, the list would be no more than three images wide, and probably two rows. I just think it would use the space better (the whitespace to the right of the images bothers me a bit). This way, it won't expand the width at all, just fill the space better. --Buddy 16:46, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
