Howdy y'all! I'm looking for some feed back with regards to the organization, categories, sections... etc...etc... on PC101. I'm really torn on many sections I should have! And, I'm torn what categories I should have ... ya know, how I should have it broken down more... less... etc... and such. Any feedback y'all can provide would be appreciated.

Thanks! Lyte

I'm not really a fan of double navigation bars, I would prefer that there was just the one, But it would probally clutter up if you had it just on the one. But they are rather spaced out so it would probally look okay. Thats something i would experiment with. Your welcome module is good. Your forum layout is also good, I would recommend moving the community corner to the top as thats where most guests would look for the rules etc. But it probally gives the same results either way, So its up to you. Your boxes on the right hand side are also good, not cluttered and not really flashy. I'd move your copyright onto the light section of the board, because you cant see it and it dosent look nice. I've noticed that you have 1-34 numbers accross the bottom which i think arent useful, The bottom of your forum lets you down. I would of given you more stars if it wasnt for the bottom. So to finish off the organization is okay but change the bottom of the board though, and the navigation is fine but i'd recommend putting the community centre at the top - Goodluck with your forum

Hey Flashgear,

Thank for the response.

Where are you seeing 1 - 34?

What do you make of the break down in topics and/or categories? Meaning... if you were looking for a particular topic, do you think you'd find it easily? I wonder sometimes if I have TOO many sections but dang, there are just so many areas of possible discussion when dealing with computer, technology, etc.

Thanks again!

I think the numbers are the archive links vBSEO puts in

Hey dude,

That's what I figured... but I don't see them at the bottom of the forum page. Where is Flashgear seeing them.

They only show for guests

**Flashgear** · 10-16-2007, 12:31 PM

The numbers run across the bottom of the board, Just under the copyright.
