Enhancements to the site... — Forum Archive

Actually, one change I would like to see is the removal of the big photo montage on each of the Tours and Concerts pages. Not that I don't appreciate the artwork, but that it makes the pages really slow to load. Would it be possible to change the format of these pages so that you can access the entire tour set-lists etc on one page ? i.e. have the tracks listed like this :

Ceremony/Subculture/State of the Nation/Way of Life.....

As there are so few reviews/gig-specific photos, this would be a major download time saver and free up some space as well !

April...I was being my usual naughty little self...I was inferring that you had said POLES (a reference to, well, I'm sure you can figure it out, knowing how my twisted mind works)...sorry for the confusion...

Ahhh, it is all making sense to me now :)

You are such a bad bad boy Jeffy :p

Originally posted by April As another glommy day draws upon another 1000er (one of our founders, the other has not been forgotten)we wonder when we shall see him again since he has hit the point of no return?Ok, enough drama... I will post something that is relevent to this post. I think that the site is wonderful as it is but maybe could have some of the following:1. Major links on the home page for new visitors to NOO like Top Ten (songs, albums, etc.), 2. More information on the band members and as another person mentioned earlier, more info on Factory3. Seperate the news page by month/year so it doesn't take as long to loadThat is all I can think of, like I said though the site is great. I don't know difficult my suggestions would be or how helpful but I tried.Good job guys on the site so far, one of the best I have seen in a while!

Actually, we would very like if anyone could write a biography for each member, this was the thing we were totally unable to write.

As for the polls, I agree with you, I just need to finish the interface to see the "old polls" and it will be done.

Originally posted by Sloppy Giuseppe No.2 No, I'm OK to log in, but as soon as I try to post on the old login it comes up with a database error, then prevents me from accessing any other pages or logging out. One of my work colleagues can't even login at the moment, it's not recognising the password she was given !

Usually, this happens by mixing 1 and l... or ONE and L...

Originally posted by Gnu Odor I'd like to see some flashing banner ads, some Java pop-up windows for online casinos, a couple of those punch the monkey games, and maybe a marquee with live weather and stock quotes.Seriously, though, I've logged about 147 kazillion hours in Photoshop and would be happy to contribute my servies in any way they could help.

Help is always welcomed.

There is tons of places on this site that would need a better design, to integrate with the rest of the site.. I did my best, but I'm not artistic at all.. I just can work Photoshop a little, so it gave what you see.

But past experience tells me that there is only a few people really offering their help, mostly they vanish and we never hear from them again.. a bit sad, but still...!

Originally posted by Shelley Blair How about updating the articles section?

Would love too... but don't have them all.

Plus, we're waiting a little to put the new ones, to avoid copyright issues.. it's ok to post an article I guess if it's not easily available somewhere...

Along with Gnu's requests, how about one of the stripping desktop girls? You could synchronize the stripping to a different NO every week. And of course have a male one as well for the lovely ladies of the board. Make it Barney! :laugh: If I had any web design experience I offer it, but considering I don't I'll just stick to unhelpful comments.
