I agree I think this would be a great "optional" feature.

Even the "Reply to [user]" link in posts should have that unique color.

[att=1]

Or say "Reply to original poster [user]" (Maybe that is enough?)

makes it easier for me. For some stuff I color code with either the bquote tags or code tags.

In a thread, it would be nice to have the OP as a different color than the rest of the posts - on the left hand side where their username and avatar are.

Much like your own posts are a different color, and posts of people that you follow.

Yay or nay?
*SIGN* *Yay*

I came here to post and suggest the same thing, and found this thread where this was already suggested.

I am constantly having to click back to the beginning see who the OP was/is.. especially in long(er) threads.

It would be VERY helpful if the background or anything of the OP's post & replies where visually different. Different color background either at left (only) and/or the reply area.. even slightly would be enormously helpful.

"I see people" only lets you add so many characters to it.

It could be something that we add to I See People that way, if you want to see it, you'll add something like %op to your code.

This way those who want it can have it, and those who don't, won't be forced to have it. It also won't be a huge, forum-wide change implemented on everyone.

2. Change background color of author posts the same (similar) way as you do for user posts. It will allow easy track (or filer if you will) author/initiator's posts of the thread among a big set of other replies, and therefore be more helpful to the author, while keeping the thread on its topic.
Good idea :)
