Ok, after using the site for a couple weeks I've come up with some things... 1) Get rid of the 'No All Caps Plugin.' Seriously, the number of pointless plugins is one of the reasons Nasioc is so annoying (aside from 90% of the members) 2) Why no animated avatars? If it is within the size constraints I don't understand why we can't use them. A 60.5K animated gif loads just as fast as a 60.5k jpeg file. I'm guessing, since I got grandfathered into this, I'm going to have my avatar deleted soon. But whatever. That is a really lame rule. 3) Arial font, or Verdana or whatever it is...the top title is about boring. It doesn't need to be crazy catchy, but the current title reminds me of those place keeper websites that GoDaddy uses on domains they buy but dont use. It feels like it should say, "This domain is available!" underneath it. 4) We need the rotating picture code on the front page again. I think that was really cool, and I think that if members could submit pics for it, it would be even cooler.
Adjust the color scheme... this whole light blue on white thing is a bit bright and hard on the eyes... i like nice, dark contrasting colors.
agreed! on all 4 accounts maybe this could remedy the boring font: http://www.ultimatesubaru.net/80s/mick/soobfonts/soobfonts.html
OH! and.... 5) Please shorten the length of the swear-filter's auto fix. Please, it is like half the width of my screen at 1600x1200.
wow, turn around time with the new site is amazingly....slow. oh look, theres a tumble weed blowing across this thread.
oh and also, can you take the car out of the top left of the screen. it would be easier for us that go on the site at work to get away with it if our managers couldnt see a huge car on every screen. something maybe like nasiocs header...discrete.
i agree. people are always walking by my desk. even though i actually have no work sometimes...i should at least look busy.
I agree, we need a freaking logo. I'd integrate Justin's car idea with my "change the font" thing. We need a nice site Logo.
dont start this crap again guys.... remember Justin... you dotn have to stress over these things anymore... just come and post and go like the rest of us normal people ha haha.. I am on here 10hrs a day almost and I dont ahve any real issues with stuff getting or not getting done... I sign in it works.. great.. I sign out and enjoy life.. even better... simple... very simple...
I just use firefox + adblock. You can eliminate the suby image at the top of the screen. I did that for the old site too.
i hear ya. but some of us are the type of ppl that like to make things happen on here and make things get done...its part of my nature, and i'm working on not caring lol.
hey .... glad you never reacted.. I thought it may have come across wrong... I am ALL for seeing things go forward adn constantly improving adn growing.. but I am ALSO all for letting the past be a lesson and not allow it to taint the future for the club in ANY way... :emo:
+12345 I almost can't remember what it's like to browse teh web WITHOUT adblock. That is until I use a computer here at work that only has IE on it, ugh.
not to repeat myself, but the sign-in boxes are still off the screen, signing in and out IS NOT EASY.
this is the top of page, after I've signed in. (which means that I had to quote someone to go to a log-in menu)
ugh... it was hard enough making ie work... I'll look at it later this week.. I have an algorithm analysis test tomorrow. Oh and the worksafe theme is basically done, just needs a tweak on the header image.
i vote no avitars and header on worksafe theme. how about wehave a header that says something about being a good employee and maximizing productivity?
Here it is almost done... I thought it looked pretty good for work.. Firefox full screen, should look even better in IE...
well. they end up being kill threads. and as a community, we have, from the begining, taken a conservative stance towards illegal street racing.
