[Bug 1184319] Re: Change the look of RTs and Replies

 

** Description changed:

  Would be cool to have a better look/style for RTs and Replies.
  
  1) For retweets:
  => see this screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/F3zwahV.png
  
  Avatar then "icon of RT" (visually very useful) then nickname then tweet.
  Below, the date (clickable, going to the status URL on twitter.com to easily share this status to someone).
  THEN the sentence "Retweeted by XXXX" (rather than at the top of tweet).
  
  2) For replies:
  => see this screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/oIvT8kh.png
  
  Notice the blue bubble icon at the bottom right.
  Much better to know that it's from a conversation than the current sentence in Birdie "in reply to XXX", which is (in addition) not very useful as we generally already known this information from the tweet itself (via the "@XXX" part). And if many @ in the tweet, we know it's one of them (can be often easily determined as it's generally the one at the beginning or at the end of tweet and it's more than good enough, allowing to keep the interface light ; just click on the bubble to know more else).
  So… this icon beautifully shows us that it's from a conversation. In a visually simple/clean/light manner.
- And in the v0.3, when the conversation supports will be added, clicking on this bubble will show the conversation.

  Either in the main panel or even better… as one of my other report/suggestion, in a new side panel.
  
  P.S.: Found that, generally speaking, all information like that are better at bottom of tweets rather than at top, personally.
  P.P.S.: Notice that "1 hour ago" is clickable (mouse hovering the link in my screenshot) to go to twitter.com's status page.
  Even the "Tweetbot for iOS" are clickable in fact, to go to the website of this Twitter client.
