Comment Button
Someone who's name shall not be mentioned, had said they didn't even realize that there was a comment button on the campaign homepage. Which I can sort of understand since the campaign homepage is usually one of the more visually striking pages. So I set about making the comment button a little more obvious. In my case, I enlisted the help of an animated short tempered alien to act as my ambassador to the comment section.
/* Comment Section*/
.small-12.columns.comment-count-column {
background-image: url(https://db4sgowjqfwig.cloudfront.net/campaigns/124016/assets/664042/Comment.gif);
height: 300px;
background-position:center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}.comment-count-wrapper {
height: 300px;
}
.comment-count-wrapper .count {
padding-top: 250px;
}
.comment-count-wrapper dd{font-size:100%;}
So feel free to head on over and take a look https://x-com-defiance.obsidianportal.com/ and I'd do as my ambassador says.
Howdy, Stranger!

Hey that was me ;)
And that comments thing is the first thing I'm incorporating when I can afford to upgrade my account again and play with CSS. Thanks a googolplex for figuring it out. I am saving the code!

I finally sacrificed my 5 bucks in the name of hammering a few proud nails on my site ... and I put my comments gif up too.

That's a very SLITHERY comments gif, Jim.

It was going to be temporary, but now I anaconda attached to it. Now I am compelled to think up a villain for Salma there to repserpent. In any case, I hope it doesn't invite any venomous criticisms -- or hisssssy fits, after all, she's wearing a garter. People can be such asps. My fangs for the comment!

Looks good even if Salma makes my mouth water. :)
I mean... she is fantastic!
This thread inspired me some, even if I went a bit different path. I chose some toned down CSS animations instead, a border for the comment and a pulse for the favorite. I'm not sure if I "sold" it okay, but the empty favorite heart gets pretty excited at the thought you might click it.
Unfortunately, once you do, its a pretty boring filled favorite heart. Maybe I should have the heart continue to pulse after favorited, just not get excited... Thoughts?

Jim, my campaign has it's viper lady also and people get real attached to her too.
Bortas, it your toned down images look good. I was originally thinking about a more toned down approach but an aliens taking over earth isn't really toned down.
