> Pretty much the whole thing is crammed onto one line, which makes it hard to pick apart threads at a glance.

Actually, I like that the way it is. The way Shiichan does this, with one line for each thread listed makes the list longer but not really more useful.

How does it look weird?

> It's not obvious that clicking on the numeric portion of a topic (that is, the "1. " in "1. [REQUEST] - Project 4-ch: Building a better website. (2)") produces a different result than clicking on the text portion of the same title, but only for the first THREADS_DISPLAYED threads.

Well, you could either learn that just by experience (it's also the same way at 2channel (more or less)) or we could add it to the wiki.

> There's no way to quickly skip down to the Reply box.

Well, you could skim to the beginning of the next thread and then just scroll up a bit....
