[Site Layout] More Prominent Stickies

Stickies at the top of the tribe view appear to be somewhat insipid compared to the rest of the content in the tribe. I love how neat and uniform they feel, but they can be easily overlooked.

This might be because I am new to the site, and I will get used to automatically checking the sticky space, but I feel they should command user attention a little more. It might present a usability issue, though, as stickies are often important to get new users acquainted with the way things work.

Maybe a larger box or some other way to draw attention to the section. Perhaps (entering pipe dream mode) even a coloured/animated unread sticky notification (although I am aware that tracking this would be a lot more work to implement).

    I agree. Stickies need to be more obvious. It is just too easy to skip over it.

    I was literally in the process of writing this when I saw yours. I honestly didn't even realize stickies existed until I made one for my own tribe. They're so easy to just glance over.

      Yep, I thought I'd deleted my post instead of stickying it at first!

    There should be an option to keep them as is or have them presented as regular links. A sidebar button wouldn't be terrible either.
