A good movie section is a will do. Do we need to play around with the major categories to help navigation or are we good as is?

Something like this comes to mind:

MOVIES
Bad Movies
Good Movies
Press Releases and News

INFORMATION EXCHANGE
What Was That Movie?
Reviews
Reader Comments

OTHER TOPICS
Entertainment
Open Forum

ADMINISTRATION
Trouble Tickets

That looks like a good idea Andrew.

Looks good to me too...

I'm agree with Dean with putting a Good movies board. Might cause confusion on what people think is bad or good.

But just giving my opinion.

Very well organized!
Blocks of 3 each --
Very symetrical --
I know very little about the technicalities of websites -- A bangup job all 'round.

That layout looks like a winner!

Oh and rich, the way I figure it, you post on the 'good movies' board if you're talking about a good movie in a good way, and put that same one on the bad board if you say 'I saw Titanic and think it is crap because of so and so etc]

I take it that "Open Forum" will be the same as "Off Topic"?

If so, do you plan to keep it titled, "Off Topic"?

I personally think that Off Topic sounds better than Open Forum.

Andrew · January 15, 2007, 08:26:07 AM

Yes, the intent for open forum is off topic. You are probably right, leaving the name as it is would be best.

Ash · January 15, 2007, 08:49:09 AM

Cool...

I don't know...when I hear the term "Open Forum" I think of "Open Season" which could be quite scary.

On the techical side, I just upgraded to IE7 and I'm having some issues. I can navigate through the different boards, but the threads won't open properly.

There's a fix for that, Neville: Fix for IE Problems

(sorry, could not resist)

I'd rather use Opera, Firefox swallows my system's memory as if it was a doughnut.

Doughnuts... Uhm...

In reference to IE 7.0.

I'll try to do some testing with a spare system I have, but I do not wish to install it on my home computer yet. Besides, Microsoft has a bad habit of ignoring standards and that always causes problems. Rather than writing code to follow the standards, people run around and change their code to adapt to Microsoft's crap - which is idiotic.

Right now the Forum has 9 errors that show if I do a W3C check. None of them should be causing the problem you describe and I will try to fix them in the near future. Besides, I check lots of pages and see over 200 errors on a single page, that still displays correctly in a browser.

Neville · January 15, 2007, 05:39:37 PM

Andrew, until somebody else confirms there are issues with IE7 you'd better take my report with a pinch of salt. Since I posted that message I've received several reply notifications, and about 50% worked fine when I clicked on the link.

It could be my system, altohugh I do my best to keep it tuned and free of spyware.

Yep, the new layout with "good movie" section looks like a winner.
