    You are all my pawns, except for @Ancalagon, who is my "Rules for Draw and Stud Poker" card.

    I didn't notice it until it was pointed out, but yeah, it would look cleaner without them.

    Well, as a suggestion, I think we should try it for a few days, see if we really like it, and if it seems to de-clutter things, keep it that way.

    I like it without the underlines. It looks cleaner.

    Yeah, it does look cleaner. I never really noticed it before, but now that they're gone, it looks better, IMO of course.

    I don't think it's been changed in Odelay Soft and Smooth unless some cache thing is messing with something. Not a huge deal.

    Now, the only problem is that the date of the last post, under the post title and next to the username, is hidden completely unless you hover over it.

    And links matching background color? Google hates that - one of the oldest "black hat" tricks in the book.

    Yeah, from my perspective there's no need to go any further with the template.
