I recently received the latest copy of the mag. The first was about coming changes to the site. Hopefully they’re of substance and not just color or font changes. Maybe a better search function, or maybe being able to change your email address.
The thing I would like to see is more room between the black menu stripe and the navigation links just below. When I move the cursor up to click on a link in the navigation links, I inadvertently hit that black bar and bring down an image that covers up the navigation link. I have my cursor control with a moderate amount of momentum selected. That creates the problem. But it works with virtually all other web sites and I like that setting. I hate to set no momentum at all, just because of the FSM site. More space, please.
I did, and it sounds like its going to be a big change. If i was reading it right, and i don’t know much about computers beyond thumping the buttons, but this has come about because of the recent issues with the site which are down to it being outdated (happy to be corrected if i have that wrong). Whether we will see any changes to how we use the site i don’t know, but if it stops all the recent problems, i am sure many will be happy.
Hopefully they are better ones. I haven’t been a fan of this set up here for a while but it’s not much of a game changer for me. There’s some good folks here.
Most of these problems were not around before the last site revamp. And many have never been addressed. Hopefully they have better folks working on the next one than the last revamp.
I am always a bit afraid of “big” changes when the users wer not asked what they would like to see. I am member of very influental sports forum and we all like that the owner always conducts a poll before changes are implemented and never takes an attitude that it is free so deal with it.
I would cerainly like to see a spell check and a better search function. But…nobody asked.
Yes, I read it the other. It sounds like they are going to completely change the software since the version we’re on now is a dinosaur and newer better versions are out there. Kinda like we a using cassette tapes while everyone else is using MP3. Just my opinion though.
From my read it appears that they realize the last effort was a patch, and that the new version to come will be real improvement. Like the rest of you, I certainly hope for the best. This forum is a really good place and any positive changes are welcome.
Elizabeth, where are you? Please keep us posted on this…thanks!
