608371 - Differentiate the styling of avatar+twitter account name vs. Tweets

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

[Stephen Donner [:stephend] Not actively reading bugmail]

The Army of Awesome UI is a little confusing: there's no style difference between hovering over a person's avatar+twitter account name vs. the actual tweet, so apart from looking at the links (even more difficult, unusual in Minefield / Firefox 4), there's no way to tell, at first, where you're going to go.

Some sort of minor styling difference between the two links would go a long way towards making it more intuitive.

Two quick fixes, when hovering over a user's Twitter ID or avatar:

* Place an underline on the Twitter ID.

* Add a heavier border around the avatar in link color.
  I'd recommend the following style:

    border-color: #307FC1;
    -moz-box-shadow: 0 0 4px #307FC1;
    -webkit-box-shadow: 0 0 4px #307FC1;
    box-shadow: 0 0 4px #307FC1;
