Administrator and Opinions sought - Front Page of LapBandTalk.com

peek · August 7, 2008

I must say I am NO FAN of the new front page to this forum.

It takes me twice as long to find what I am looking for, it is full of rubbish I don't want to see and the actual content of what used to be this forum has been squeezed onto a small column to the right.

It just doesn't seem user friendly anymore. I believe it has lost its appeal by all this advertising/information. Can't we make a separate link for all of the info in the middle or is it completely necessary to have there?

Can one of the administrators help here?

Perhaps others have opinions that they wish to voice?

I like the current format. The latest threads, articles and blogs in the middle which I like because that is primarily what I am looking for. I like that you can also now see recent pictures posted on the front page a little to the right as well. Advertisements are on the very right which are easy to see but are not a burden in this format.

I also like this format. You can easily find the forum topics on the left and I like reading the current posts in 1 page. Before, you had to scroll down to find new posts and sometimes you missed them if they were embedded within a forum topic in the old format.

I have to say that I'm on the fence for this one. I love the new topics being in the middle and you can get to them easily. On the other hand there are a couple of threads that I visit regularly and in this format they are harder to find. But they are easier to find if you click on the LBT banner at the top and it takes you to the old "filing cabinet" format without the new stuff in the middle.

Maybe that's why they left it that way. When you come to LBT, click immediately on the banner with BBK standing there and you get it the old way. Hope this helps.
