Post Icons - Consolidations - Replacements - Ideas.

Ok, with 49 post icons we've hit a practicle limit - if there are to be more of the beasts some must die.

I'm looking for ideas on how to consolidate and arrange them.

Discuss.

Out of Character (Aside) is pretty redundant since we put it all in a different forum.

Merge TV and Movies. They are different, but not so much that a person would be offended for going into the wrong posticon.

Hivemind is it's own OT forum now, so maybe no need for that posticon.

Meta is it's own little forum too. I don't know how important these forum category based posticons are to you, but they seem redundant to me.

I was thinking the same thing.

Following this line of reasoning (which I agree with)...

Get rid of Tech, OT, Aside, Meta. All have forums where posts should go by default.

Get rid of Art, Minis - these have a forum, and it doesn't move fast enough to really make it necessary.

Optionally, get rid of Books, Movies, TV, Video Games, Anime, and Comics. Again, while nice, the two forums don't get near the traffic that's really required for these to be necessary. In addition, most of the people who frequent these forums know what something is by the title usually.

ENnies isn't necessary, IMO, since it comes around only once a year. Neither is LotR, it can be categorized with Books or Movies.
