First I'd like to say thanks for the completed option!!!!
It's so cool that it's possible to search for and label comics as complete!
But...
The fact that the word "completed" when you update the status of a comic is in grey bugs me a little..
When I see the grey I still think "Oh, hasn't updated for awhile..." because comics that haven't been updated for awhile are also the same color font...
It just has a really negative feeling to me and to actually complete a comic I think is such a positive thing...
It's not really a big issue but I just wanted to say it
sorry, in all honesty I'm just a whiny random user hahaha
So! Thanks for the option and I really love this website! Keep up the good work Admin-sama!

I've commonly seen green used as a "complete" color online, but currently updated comics are green. :/ I wonder if it would work if it was left gray, but had a green checkmark beside it? ...on second thought, that might just look stupid.
But, it would be nice if it was a "good" color, and one not already used. (...red is usually bad, yellow is usually for warnings, and blue would make it look too much like a link :/ )

I like the dark grey, it stands out among all the colours. I understand that it could feel negative though. Maybe a dark green would work?
Busy, busy.

Not bad, I think.

Might I make another suggestion, though? Assuming it hasn't already been mentioned that is...
It's cool that there's the option of marking comics as completed, but this still causes them to get jumbled up with the favorited comics that haven't updated in a long time, so is there any chance of perhaps having an extra tab in our favorites for the completed stuff to go?

Y'know, like how there's a tab for "My Favorites" and one for "Recommended for You," I was thinking it'd be nice to have a third one for complete comics that just says "Completed Favorites" or something, just to keep things a bit cleaner.

Again, sorry if this suggestion has already been made, haha.

...I kind'a think that seems unnecessary, myself. Maybe if there's a lot of favorites that are completed, so it would cycle through them, but not if there's only two or three. Sure completed comics are great, but it just seems like too much. (besides, it would encourage people to abuse the feature, because of the extra exposure)
What if the completed comics are updated every so often, instead? Like once a month from their last update or something? Then they would still show up in the favorites, but not overly often. But there is a big catch, though. It would be annoying that way, because you (or at least me) would automatically click to see an update, before realizing it's a completed one.

Oh, I have a better idea. Have one little block within the favorites, like at the top of favorites, have a seperater. Have one random completed comic in that space (in a way that seperates it from the other favoite comics). Kind'a like how the donator comics get an ad space, in a way?
Like... My Favorite Webcomics: Random completed favorite: COMIC BANNER | Other favorites: COMIC BANNER, COMIC BANNER, etc.
Or... My Favorite Webcomics: Random completed comic: COMIC BANNER (different bg color, or a border around the area) | COMIC BANNER, COMIC BANNER, etc.

I think you might be misunderstanding what I meant, haha. This isn't about more exposure for Completed comics, but simply not having to wade through old un-updated comics to find the Completed ones.

It's just kinda messy if you ask me. I just think having an extra tab for completed comics up there in-between "My Favorites" and "Recommended for You" would make the Favorites look a bit nicer, that's all I'm saying. It wouldn't be a public thing, it'd just be for individuals to have an easier time finding the completed comics they've faved. Making Completed comics auto-update over time wouldn't really keep things tidier, and just seems like a needlessly roundabout way of keeping Completed stuff separate if you ask me.

That's not all that different than having an extra tab for them, haha. I just figured since there are already tabs on the Favorites page that they could be put to use for something like this.

Oh, I see what you meant now. I was thinking about the little side panel on your profile page. ^_^" I don't pay enough attention. >_>"
I hardly ever look at that page. O_o I should look at that more often...
