How to get rid of like/dislike icons

[Chille]

incase your like me and think the new thumbs up and thumbs down icon look ugly and out of place? heres your tip first download adblock plus, i wont give link due to admins and mods not liking this software in first place, anyway once downloaded you can just right click the thumb up and down then click add to blockable images, and walla complete gone once i work out a way to get rid of the bar also il post here! thank you for your time

edit seems bottom part is part of the forums skin, will keep trying to though.

edit seems like text is part of the forum itself as blocking the skin script still has the text appear

holy shit ive done it, ok its a firefox extra called foxreplace, now once its downloaded use filter post thanks/like and replace with spaces or i hate this whatever floats your boat, then have address as www.psu.com/forums, now this text will be blocked and replaced with whatever you typed.

we win!

why do you think i didnt tell them to block ads? you dont gain or lose anything from people not having the like or dislike icons.

Or you could just ignore the like/dislike buttons. It's really not that big of a deal.

i just think it looks ugly, thats all makes forum look cheap.

[VintageElise]

I think the user-names look cheap. But meh.

[T0PGUN]

Can hardly see them! Jesus, some people...

I can understand why some people are against the addition of the like / dislike buttons... but are they really that bad? Short answer: No.

yes they are, they cheapen the look of the forum along with the username titles like vintage says.

Hiding them for yourself isn't going to solve the issue (as you see it). The issue with something making the forum look cheaper is that guests and visitors of the site would be less inclined to join. That's where the issue with something making the forum cheap and unprofessional comes in. Hiding them for yourself serves no actual relevance to solving the issue you clearly feel strongly about.

I have no way to personally get rid of them on the forum itself, im only offering a way for people who also feel the same way as i do to also be able to hide them. Its not like it took me a long time to do, and i had nothing else to do, if nobody else does it thats there own choice, this is all about choice, every user no matter how small has a choice on what they want to do on this forum.

It's your choice, absolutely. Just seems completely unnecessary, and solves no issues whatsoever. I'm not saying you're wrong in hiding them, just doesn't seem like a practical thing to do.

takes 10 minutes to do tops for anyone now that ive said how to do it, why doesnt it seem practical? i dont like the system, this hides it, therfor my problem is gone.

Grease monkey might be better allsorts of things can be done with it.
adblock just blocks the images and leaves spacing but greasemonkey can change layouts and stuff.

The likes and dislikes are on the wrong side they should be in the "right" so on our own poasts the spacing of the "+rep" and "report post" (yes I might want to report myself for being a twat one day) is unchanged.

As i said i was bored whille ffxi was downloading lol but il try it ty

[Tutankhamun]

Yeah, I did this with Adblock+ on Safari when they were added just to try it out - works great. I also managed to block the shout box, and the icons. I could get rid of the border around the icons too but for some reason that broke other parts of the layout.

One could also write their own CSS for the forum to hide the icons and like/dislike buttons if one were so inclined.

Indeed. Followed your advice. Just wish we could block usernames with glows and shadows as well.

If you put someone on your ignore list, will it block it like that?

Now that you mention it, who knows?
