The <li>tags boxes hover color is set to rgba(0,0,0,.01))
It was an eye-opener seeing an RGBA transparent color to change the hover color state. Very cool CSS trick. This meant you only had to change the default color of the active link and not have to touch the hover color. Nice idea!
As I come from a more traditional forum layout aka simplemachines forum which has categories, sub-boards etc, this to me, felt more "relatable".
What ya'll think? 🙂
