There used to be a button-y thing over there
<---
that linked to the lighttpd homepage. Now only one pointing to Opera is there. I humbly request it be put back, as it's completely thrown off the aesthetic value of the site.
Please and thank you.

addendum: as long as adding it doesn't result in another month of downtime and/or increased server bill/load. thanks.

This is relevant  to my interests. I second the motion.

It was taken away because it made the sidebar scroll on 1024 x 768 resolutions. It was also deemed as the least important link on there.

Couldn't you just drop the font size by an unnoticeable point or two to fit it back in? Or perhaps resize both the icons down a 'lil to get them to fit?

I mean, webserver advocacy is important, particularly with the underdogs like lighttpd. If you look at their homepage, they point out that even the greats like Youtube use it, but there's no mention of it -anywhere- on the actual youtube page. It wouldn't kill them to add in a little plug somewhere, would it? And when you think about it, this is fchan, not youtube. If we don't show off why we prefer for our httpd, who will? the masses will assume, "haw, the furries use apache like everyone else" and go about their day, with a horribly warped perception of us for years to come.

So please, won't you rectify this situation before the Fchan reputation is further tarnished? D:

Fchan's tarnished reputation? I'm not sure what you mean. We have a massive anount of people who come to our site, and I don't think they would if we had a tarnished reputation. Though, as they say, all kinds of publicity is good publicity.

As for the image link, you'll have to ask Xeno. I hate messing with code, especially on the sidebar. So pop onto IRC and message him about it, if you think it's that important.
