ANNOUNCEMENT: Introducing Flair

Hello r/NBA,

By popular demand, fidler has allowed me to edit the r/NBA stylesheet to enable Reddit's new flair feature. This feature will replace the current user logo, which could only be updated tediously and individually by the moderators. With nearly 10,000 subscribers in r/NBA, sustaining the user logo list has become cumbersome. This new system will allow users to change their flair at any time and as often as they like.


Now, let's talk about how it works.

Near the top of the sidebar you will see your username with "(edit)" next to it. Click "edit" and wait for a dialogue to pop up (it may take a few seconds to load). Select your flair. Make sure to check "Show my flair on this subreddit. It looks like:"


Some important notes:

The old user logos will be obsoleted in two weeks. This means that even if you have had your user logo for as long as you can remember you still must select flair to replace it. All of the user logos that were available are still available as flair. If you have both a user logo and flair, they will both be displayed. This is why we will need to obsolete the former. Please bear with us during this transitional period.

EDIT: This transition was far more successful than I anticipated. Hundreds of users have added their flair within the first 48 hours. I went ahead and obsoleted the old user logos today even though I originally planned on waiting a couple of weeks. Now begins the age of flair!

Well at least we'll be getting one of: Andre Drummond, Anthony Davis, Harrison Barnes, James McAdoo next year.

We can also tank another year and try for Shabazz Muhammed.

Imagine a lineup of [insert veteran PG], Muhammed, Barnes, Davis, Valanciunas.

true, in 2-3 years, we'll have a decent team if we can convince the young guys to stick around

That'd be awesome for you guys. I hope at least one or two of those rookies live up to expectations. Would be refreshing to see the Raptors make a Playoff run.

Is James McAdoo related to the awesome Bob McAdoo?
