Reading list by color?

[zdashamber]

On my Livejournal friendslist I use a style that shows bars of color alongside every post, based on the colors I defined for my different friends, so I can see at a glance who is talking. Dreamwidth has the option to define colors for different subscriptions, but is there a style yet that applies those different colors to your reading list?

amadi pointed to a good post on prettifying layout, which makes it seem possible (though difficult) that I could figure out how to hand-code something... So even complex fixes involving hand coding can apply.

(Not really related, I just saw a post about how you can apparently use different icons for usericons? Fascinating!)

Sheer curiosity—where did you get to my post from? I'm happy it's getting linked about, but I haven't got any tracking installed yet and am wondering.

Hum. Retracing steps... I went to bakeitup, because that's the DW with the prettiest layout I've seen so far and I was considering it, and I clicked on "Friends" to see how that layout presented the reading list, whether there was a space for color. Lo and behold there were interesting things on the friends-of-baking list, among them your post. Glad to hear you don't mind the unexpected exposure. :)
