Layout and Design

Presentation Modes:

As a Viewer

Viewers are users own do now own the tier list but want to view other users lists. The list will be locked and thus the user will not be all to move the items.

As an Owner

Owners are users that have created their own tier list project and want to show it off. Owners can move around items on the list.
