Great job guys! :2thumbs:
Very cool. Thanks for all the hard work!
:cheers:
Thanks for the positive feedback. :five:
Working on a new t-shirt design to match the look and new branding elements. Sending it to the printer this week.
These new shirts are going to be really cool! We will have to do a poll or get some requests to see how many to order. :rockon:
Only comment....
I would prefer to see a little larger picture in the picture bar and less of them... the picture bar is now too busy for my refined taste... maybe double the picture size and only have 5 pictures.
Just my two cents.... the rest looks nice. I hated the old slideshow entrance with a passion.... I'm not sorry to see that go.
:rockon:
Groovy....way to go guys. Let me know about the shirts, i'll definitely be buying.....Jim

If it is a ton of work don't worry about it, but it would be nice if there were a simple drop down menu to select how many reports to view at once.
Also- As I mentioned I do like the homepage a lot now. Is there any concern now about the homepage, reducing forum activity? It seems like the forum is now part of the site (and I am sure it will continue to be a major part), instead of the forum being the site.
Actually, I've spent a lot of time hanging out on the home page, just watching the latest forum posts from there. :2thumbs:
Seeing 3 Trip Reports, or posts at a time... Yes, that can be changed very easily to whatever number we want. Downside is, the Flickr photos load a little slow, because it loads the whole set. We kind of decided that maybe 3 at a time was the most functional, and then you've got your "previous" and "next" links on the top and bottom.
We actually think that direct link to the posts will increase forum participation. Sometimes I see the red dot in a forum I don't visit very often, and I never click to see what topics have been added. This feature shows you up front, just in case there were a topic that sounded interesting, in a forum I don't have interest in... like Canyoneering. :roflol:Quote:

Yeah, the homepage wont decrease but increase participation. :popcorn:
For those interested in the derailed Flickr conversation:

I like the new layout. Sweet setup, mabey I will change my bookmark back to the homepage now! Great job guys. :2thumbs:
I can see where Summit and Four are coming from. I wish there was a good middle ground. I guess deleting all there pics fix their concerns but I do miss there TR's.
For the record you can post my pictures on flickr, but I reserve the right to change my mind.
:rockon:
It makes sense. I can definitely see that it will increase traffic to the site, and hopefully avoid some repeat posts of the same questions about the same places.Quote:

Then again, it just drops everything else lower down the side, so it's a trade off.
Another nice thing about that is you can see the titles of the threads in the "members only" sections.
Just a thought beech....
What about only showing the titles/threads from the most popular forums on the main page and not everything... say hiking, biking, canyoneering, yada, yada.... eliminate General, rubbish bin, political, noob's....
:cool2:
It all looks good :2thumbs:
I would love a cool Bogley shirt, might buy more than one! It would be cool to bump into a fellow forum member on the trail and recognize. :five:Quote:

I just added links to some of the main sections which have trip report index stickies. You'll see these links located on the right sidebar at the bottom under "TR Archives." Some of these sections are updated regularly and some are not so much. Anyway, stefan had the idea to add these links to the homepage. Good idea! :2thumbs:
