Post Headers

After evaluating all the feedback regarding the site's layout, comparing with similar sites, and testing on Baldr itself, we're rolling out a few updates across all themes:

• Narrowing the overall layout to better align with benchmarks (OGMW, Reddit, StackOverflow, MSDN, CNN, and Washington Post, in case you're wondering)

With the narrowing of the layout, would it be possible to make it so that the site defaults to having the header information (user name, avatar, etc) that's currently on the left instead appear on the top of each post like OGMW?

I know it converts to that with some devices when space is limited, but it would be nice if it were the default layout. It would not only look nicer, but it would also eliminate all of that whitespace on the left in longer posts.

Recognizing this is a change from OGMW, it's one that we actually intend to keep. Moving to a left-side postbit has been one of the most requested features for OGMW over the years, to improve the reading flow of post content. Mobile layout switches to a top postbit only because there's not enough width to do anything else.
