So... Character links, am I right? To be honest, I think character links are a really cool feature I've never seen done on other websites BUT, I do think they need some improving as currently they are very... Barebones. Below are some key features I think would be really cool to see on links!

-Being able to code on links

-ability to enable WYSIWYG

-change character icons for specific links (I had a full thread for this idea Here )

-sort links

-add a custom 'status' option (it would be a small blank area above the text box on each part of the link that you can enter different things like 'dating', 'one sided crush', 'siblings' ect! That way it doesn't take up the main text about the relationship!)

-add additional art onto links

Of course, I understand that there are more important features people want, but I feel like a link update would be greatly welcomed and appreciated !

feel free to put ideas below, and once I'm not lazy I'll add them onto here with credit!

I was actually about to make a thread about Quyli's suggestion myself (it would be the perfect utilization of the relationship meme codes) so +1 :)

I just discovered the feature today and while I love it, it's also unfortunate on how barebones it is. I wish I could at least organize the order of the links.

1+ I’m using them a ton now! Would be nice to see more variety, maybe different colors and toggles for different kinds of relationships? (Enemies, Friends, Partner, Crush, etc)

Not to mention one sided relationships too? For example if character a and b don’t feel the same way about each other.

+1 Quylli's suggestion is exactly what I was thinking! For most of my characters, it feels awkward and unnecessary to come up with two versions of their relationship's definition. One box would feel much more simple and make more sense to me, so I really wish it was an option.

+1 I disagree with making it one giant speech bubble instead of two, but I really wish people had an option to toggle it (Eg, Default of 2 bubbles, 1 bubble in the center, or a 1-sided bubble.)

+1 The ability to sort links in particular would be a huge time saver so I don’t have to switch between profiles just to put them in a specific order.
