the place where the users avatars are located next to a post. is it possible the center the content in those? like the crosses and member status? i think it would look nicer and more organized.

i would love if they were centered ::squee::

edit: no one ever responded ='[

It would make both sides lumpy though.
Personally, that would freak me out *lol*

Why not just design your avatar so it looks natural to have everything aligned like it is now?

Yeah, the left-align has such a great visual ease to it, as far as being able to locate all the info in a mini-profile at once goes. When things are centered, the "start" of every line is different. Harder to process at a glance.

I leave requests like this for Flowers to answer... and when he doesn't answer it usually means "no". ::meev:: But those are my thoughts on the issue.

I thought we had this question once before and I already said no...

Anyway it would probably be possible but I don't think it's a good idea. Having the names left-aligned makes it easy to scan through a thread and see who's posted, or when to pick up reading where you left off. We'd lose that if we centered the usernames.
I've never seen it done that way anywhere else on the Internet either, and there's probably a reason for that.
