I brought back front home page as a place to put articles, to promote helpful topics from the forum, and to put the member rides image slideshow to work. 

 

But now we have gallery software, with pretty cool image albums.  The member rides slideshow isn't needed, as we all now have pretty cool gallery features for our bike images.

 

Should we keep the front home page?

I like Splash pages personally.  I just think you have a bad design.  IMO a short Welcome at top, Mid Center with Members bikes, two side columns, dicpicting Sponsor links, Latest Posts, Member Stats.  Footer is a good spot for Members gallerys under Center Members bikes.

I was torn between "keep it" and "beer & titties"…. "Keep it" barely won. 😁

 

Not sure what the problem anyone has with having a home page. The old forum page is one mouse click away from the homepage anyway. Maybe if I browsed with a phone I'd feel different but I don't, so I don't know what, if any, issues they may be having.

Im sorry, but I just don't like that design at all, actually.  And multiple sidebars are a nightmare on mobile devices. 

 

You don't seem to like much of anything at all about this forum, to tell you the truth. And I suspect it has to do with something else altogether.

I wish moblie and desktop view were the same... But it comes down to which device you prefer... PC or mobile phone... I am getting used to doing stuff in a "hybird" way... Mobile view to scroll thru/read and use desktop mode to do any postings/edit...

 

For some reason I like the Tracer900 forum set up....I know it's the same software but the FZ and T7 look identical in layout...

I say keep it get a pc. If you're walking around with your face in a phone all the time instead of taking in the scenery there's something wrong with you. Like Ferris said, "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in awhile you could miss it."   😎

Because having your face buried in a large PC monitor all the time is soo much better for you. 😆

 

Good ride Yesterday. 👍

What you go to the same school of misinturpretation as Beemer?  Maybe you need a more advanced course in comprehension!

I was just giving my opinion, thats all, no need to get all butt hurt again for craps sake.

Can someone tell me what the status update thing is? Probably a dumb question, I can't seem to figure it out.

Whenever I'm on this forum it's on the mobile version. I don't do much at work so I just browse the site on my phone. feel like the older version was better for that.

FWIW, on my tablet, an icon takes me straight into the result of clicking the left button next to 'Start New Topic'.  

Just do it!

I use this site exclusively on my phone so I agree with you completely. But alas, I just go with the flow

I always wanted a job where 'I don't do much at work'. Never found it. 

Just do it!

So, are you saying the front page makes it harder?  What if I shut off the front page so it doesn't display on mobile?

Correct. It isn't the biggest issue in the world. Just a slight inconvenience
