RE: Tag Cloud Makeup

What I dislike about current tagclouds is that there is ONE HUGE TAG, and 90% of the remainig tags are very small. It looks like the cloud is 90% trash.

I suggest:

- Filtering out the least frequent tags
- Applying a logarightm function to the tag sizes. It will reduce the graphical domination of the most frequent tags. I did it with my project: http://automatthias.wordpress.com/2006/07/26/size-and-color/ and it works fine.

RE: Tag Cloud Makeup

I forgot to add a suggestion tag. So here it is.

Another suggestion would be to make it possible to edit tags of my past replies.

Tag Cloud Makeup Continued

Thanks Automatthias for the suggestion! Blogoforum now filters the least important tags. Please tell me where I can read about how to apply a logarithmic function to the tag sizes.
