icons page should align icon & text at their tops, not bottoms

Title:
icons page should align icon & text at their tops, not bottoms

Area:
icon page

Summary:
The icon page, i.e., http://kate-nepveu.dreamwidth.org/icons , currently aligns an icon and its accompanying text at their bottoms, not at their tops. This is hard to read and ugly. It should be changed so that the icons and their accompanying text are aligned at their tops.

Description:
Bottom-aligning text and icons means that the text is not in a consistent location: depending on the length of the text and the size of the icon, sometimes it begins above the icon's top, roughly next to the icon's top, or below the icon's top. This makes it harder to read (and, also, is ugly), particularly since rows of icons are not separated from each other by horizontal rules or other non-textual markers.

Since English, and the vast majority of other languages, is read top-to-bottom, the icons and their accompanying text should start at the same place, aligned at their tops.

Add a Plurk username tag

Title:
Add a Plurk username tag

Area:
site-specific markup

Summary:
Add another user name= tag for Plurk.com.

Description:
I'd like to see a new username tag for Plurk.com profiles, the format of which is http://www.plurk.com/username. There's only one main page for each user so nothing separate to link for the userhead. I believe this would be particularly useful for parts of the journal-based RP community where Plurk is often used in place of chat/IM, PMs, email, etc.

Display "Default" instead of "All" on navstrip when viewing default reading page

Title:
Display "Default" instead of "All" on navstrip when viewing default reading page

Area:
navstrip/reading filters

Summary:
Currently, when I view my Reading Page, it defaults to my Default setting - but tells me I'm viewing All Subscriptions on the navstrip. I suggest that it instead tells me I'm viewing Default.

Description:
I have a subscription filter named "Default" (which, by the way, is one of most awesome things ever). When I click to view my Reading Page, it all functions as advertised and displays only things in my Default group - but the navstrip at the top of the page informs me that I'm reading "All Subscriptions". Untrue! And often confusing when I think about reading the people who aren't on my default list - because it's displaying All at the top, I ... think I'm reading everybody. However, if I click the "view" button next to where it says "All Subscriptions", it does indeed refresh to show me all of my subscriptions (adds "?filter=0" to the url). The dropdown box then continues to advertise that I am viewing All Subscriptions. However, if I were to view a filter called "random", the url would change to ".../read/random" AND, more importantly, the dropdown box would show the filter's name, "random". The only time that it doesn't show me the filter I'm viewing in the box is when I click directly to my reading page.

Changing this so the text matches up seems like it would save people a lot of confusion, and I can't see any particular drawbacks, though I don't know the slightest thing about what sort of effort it would take to implement it. Always worth a thought, though?
