Site Improvements - Home Button - improve trap 17 site

OCAC
Hi, did a quick search but could not find any thread on this, a general suggestion thread on layout improvements. so I hope I am not trotting on anybody's food here. If, please excuse, and basch me to the end of the thread where I belong.

So here goes. When I design websites, I always strife to make it as quick, and as sweet as possible, rather unlike the explanation and introduction to this post.

So, my question?

Why is there no home button at the top of the screen. When I want to go and check my credits, or just go back to the top of the pile and look at all the threads that are out there (and I do this about two or three times per visit) I have to scroll somewhere into the middle of the page, select a pulldown menu, click on it, press go and presto. rather than just making one press on the keyboard - top of page, and press f.e the logo, which would carry me straight back to the forum start.
The other option is to go into my bookmarks, or click on my quicklink, but really a home button would be nice, somewhere up there.

That is my only serious criticism, for the time being.

But I am sure others have theirs. What is yours? And what can we do about it?

I don't think there is really that much a need for a home button. Just look under the google search box and under this topic you will see this line

just click on the first link "Free Web Hosting" to bring yourself back to the so called Home. I think to create a Home button may not be all too easy since the board looks sleek right now without obvious buttons and the button too must fit into the colour scheme.

Ah, thanks, I hadn't discovered that one, possibly, because it is not in an immediately obvious place, even though the way it is presented is certainly "standard". maybe it could have a similar grayed background as the top menu with the "Free Web hosting, Gallery.... links", instead of the simple blue stroke. having said that, maybe I should test your different layout options at the same time....

But I will use it now. It seem to be high enough to be reached by a top of page key-stroke, so that is covered as well.

Well it is certainly more obvious in the Vizion_x template, hmm dry.gif

    Ah the boring old trap feedbacker. Probably the most active account without a sig or avatar. Now I
    know that non-members can't see sigs or avatars but us members should see something more than
    just the name. I usually recognize a member here by his or her avatar rather than the name. (Oh
    there's the hybrid bus guy) (Oh there's the christian penguin mod)... Anyway back on topic.
    At first I was thinking that the Trap feedbacker should have a sig with a link linking back to the

    Hello. I was talking with some people in the shoutbox, and we were thinking it'd be a cool idea
    to have a Trap17 chat room so people could talk with each other easily. I mean, in addition to
    posting on the forums, why shouldn't trap 17 members be able to talk in real time with their
    friends from Trap17? Let me know what you guys think....
  4. A "save As Draft" Button - saving your topics or posts for later editing (13)
    i realized while typing earlier i had the urge to find a "save as draft" button. i guess i was so
    fixated with my blog. but anyway, my point is what if the forum was to include this feature so
    whatever you write, you could save them for posting later on. i was thinking maybe some people would
    have some stuff to do and they have to shut down the computer (not everyone can leave their computer
    on, and that would be a waste of energy), but they have already written their topics/posts.
    moreover, some people would have second thoughts in posting their topics so they could sav...
  5. Trap 17 Get Together! - Is there a possibiltie of the top posters getting together sometime? (23)
    I was thinking about it the other day. What if in a year or two the top posters all got together
    somewhere? It would be sort of neat to see everyone in person. Because some of you i have got to
    know your personalties fairly well on this forum. Do you think that possibility is even a actual
    possibility? Would anyone go if it were planned?...
  6. Php Script/tutorial Test Site . - Another Xisto Service Possibility (18)
    Last couple of weeks I been having this idea for another volunteer xisto service. We take php
    scripts from across the net, from tutorial sites, download sites and what not and test them out to
    see if they actually work. Then give them a rating of 1-5 1 being the script don't work and 5
    being the script works like it supposed to. If they do work we provide a live demo to it. Now The
    set up would go like this if the script runs into problems we would post the problem through a

  7. 'site Of The Month' And 'general Discussions' - (4)
    Hi, I registered here today and I think there are a lot of things good out here. But somethings
    that i found awkward out here was the fact that the General Discussions board should be at the top
    not bottom. Also you guys could have 'Site of the Month' contest and things. This will
    enable the members to compete. This is what i think. If i have offended someone please excuse me
    and i am sorry for it. Thanks and have a good day....
  8. Report Button On Shout Box - (4)
    I think that we could do with a report button..because recently there have been many weirdoes around
    here that post things that they shouldn't be posting...so maybe someone can make a script and we
    can have a report page just for the shout box...designed just for the shoutbox.... for example i
    know it cant be like a topic where there is automaticly a report button there, but maybe we can make
    a page on the forums that is exactly like the normal report page and it does the same thing (sends
    it to all mods and admins) just a thought...
  9. Trap17 Suggestions - a button and topsites 4 trap17 members (5)
    I have some good Ideas. I think we should have a button on the top of the forums that brings you
    back to the forum index. Also, I think we should have a topsites list for trap17. There are many
    good free ones out there, and I think it would be amazing. Think of how we would think of other
    members? Joining would be optional. It would iclude the top 10 and baners for them in a nice little
    table, and the rest can upload or provide an icon to the left if they are in the top 50, and the
    rest are shown on a seperate page. What do you guys think of these ideas?...
  10. Edit Button - It should be considered (4)
    I don't have the hack for it, or either it needs to be enabled for users and not just
    moderators. Users should be able to edit their own posts, like if they left something out, or mis
    spelled something or made a grammar mistake. I'd like some feedback....
  11. Edit Button - (23)
    I think we should put back the EDIT your own post button so we can fix mistakes and the delete your
    own post button just incase we double posted. This would help the admins and moderators alot.

  12. Css Design - custom css for this site (1)
    In this site, while looking at the site's code, I notice it uses the tags a lot. Would it be
    possible to change all this to a css document and place the link href code in it's place:
    CODE <link href="/forums/default.css" rel="stylesheet"
    type="text/css"> and give the opportunity to customize it in the My Controls
    section to their own css style: CODE <link

  13. Forum Layout - Improvements (11)
    Well, let's see... I joined the site about 20 minutes ago, and I noticed how cool and
    professional the front page looked, but then I saw the forums. The forums are extremely ugly due
    to overcrowding. This forum looks like it takes mod steroids, seriously. There are WAY too many
    mods on this forum, and a lot are relatively useless. Overcrowding makes the forum look ugly and
    unprofessional... My suggestions: Lose the shoutbox. Now. Can some of those ads be removed? The
    last posts/topics at the bottom can be removed. Those three are the main things that bring the u...

    I've noticed that there is no edit button for our posts, this is really frustrating if we make a

    the way it goes is u install some sort of currency thing so when someone makes a post or a reply
