I know it's not entirely necessary, but hear me out!

What I'm thinking of is having some sort of widget that we can use on every page on the site, and each page has a separate widget that has room for notes. Just away for us to have little reminders and to-do lists in places like our storage boxes and item bag to keep organized.

This way, rather than having to have multiple tabs (which produces server lag and at-home problems if you don't have good connection), or wasting paper by having a notepad on hand (which not everyone has on-hand), you can put a sticky note on a page where you need to remember something. You could use it in your bag to remind yourself what Gems you need for a certain exchange, over on the auction page and GTS to remind yourself what pokemon or keys and boxes you or your friends need, and in your Storage Boxes to remind yourself what pokemon are where so you can sort better, and also keep track of the hashtags and raffles you need to check up on!

You could put a sticky anywhere on the page, and it would stay there. From a user's page, they can manage them by colo(u)r or page, and can toggle if certain notes are visible to other users (friends, public, or private).

I just think it would help users in general, as I know my near OCD gets hold of me, and would probably save a lot of new users quite a few mistakes.

Example Images:
Show hidden content

Potential Theme: TCG

Little + button is for an option menu, and where you can change the themes and privacy settings for the page.




Ways to make it better:
Minimizing notes (Lord_Of_Potatoes)

I also thought of a fun little thing for Art contests to! You could set up the notes in your storage boxes in the same place and put a bunch of your art on each. Then as someone clicks through it'd be like a little flip-book animation.

Bump!
I'm sorry to everyone who has subbed to this thread, but if I could ask you to help me keep this strong. My internet connection is terrible at the moment (spending time with my mom for the summer in the middle of redneck amish country side), and half of the things on-site are broken.
Thanks much!

While I see how this would be useful to some users, it wouldn't really affect me since I can always remember what I need (I just backtrack to the place that I thought about the thing I need xD)
I still support this though! I know not everyone has a perfect memory, and this would certainly help.
It would be cool if there was a different type icon on the bottom of each sticky note xD

I like this idea a lot! You have the stick widget up near the notifications and/or in your misc. setting also! Full support!

To make this become a better suggestion (which is already did), why not make a visual preference for it like how it will gonna be look like? Also... SUPPORT!

What do you mean Aperture? Like being able to choose the colors or pictures as the background or something?
Or do you mean like different themes we could choose?

Unfortunately I don't think I can do anything like that at the moment, I'm having issues with the site since I got to my mom's for the summer, and anything I'd do would not look good at all. I can try to, if you really want.

I like the theme of the Stick notes but... maybe it must have a new tab thing in the settings instead of it being in the task thing.

Right, but then the whole idea of having it on multiple pages won't be as easy. I just put it there because I don't know if Riako-sama has anything planned for up there, and I feel like it's less distracting if it's in the top-bar. I thought it'd be awkward just hanging out on the side and settings is too much work XD

I'm sure there is at least 1 firefox plugin that does this for any site... as well as greasemonkey scripts... if I get bored enough I might see if I can write one specifically for this site. Also there are scheduler plugins that will open pages at a specified time (I couldn't live without my scheduler lol). I also keep a notepad file open to jot things down that I need to remember.

This SURE isn't needed. Like, can't you make real-life sticky notes? And Can't you just keep in mind that? Can't you just... make those a better addition? I like this idea, it's funny. Full support x3

@Sitri XD Well thanks.

@KrazyKat Right, I'm well aware of programs like that existing, but they do cause some lag and it's hard to find ones that don't have a million and one bits of malware attached to them, especially since most of the population of the site are kids and haven't learned what sites look suspicious just from reading the description.
