Okay, i have a redesign & placement suggestion about title & tags inside the topic.
This design will be like how tags are being shown on latest post layout. This will make thread/topic clean & neat, rather than the current setup (huge color) which in my option makes the forum less appealing.
This setup will also show the proper colors for the right tags, specially if you use two or more tags.
Of course, what i am suggesting is not a final design. Title can be bold, font can be bigger to make it more noticeable and tags can be bigger so that it is more visible.
This is just a suggestion, please post your feedback.
