An Idea  Menus
 Posted on 02/13/04 at 22:00:41 GMT

I propose that I clean up all these menus on the front page, or left sidebar every page, that is, and put some of the stuff on some other pages.

I'm having a hard time finding anything anymore. Plus I need new glasses because I can barely see now with the ones I have.

Also it will speed up page loading to reduce the number of checks that are performed for member logins, statuses, ranks, etc. for all the features.

Any ideas of what links are good to keep on the left panel of every page?

On the top we have now

code:

                              [ ___] Search  
                     Advanced Search
Portal Home   Forums   Resources   Topics   Help  



Navigation has
"Home
Forums
Topics
Resources
Downloads
Top 10
Palm Pilot
Help
"
maybe on top:


code:

                                 [   ] search AdvSearch Logout  "
PortalHome Forums   Resources   Topics Download Top10 Palm  Help  "



Maybe even My SiteLibrary.MyProfile could go there ?

Just a few thoughts.

I think there may be room for a couple more things up there on the top menu bar. I don't want to make it too wide for smaller resolution people. Right now it's made to fit in WebTV, which is a little extreme at 544 pixels.

I tend to thing that the routines that require data file checking should be kept as low on the page as possible, for faster loading. I'm not sure how valid that is or not, but it seems like it would speed things up. Something is bogging down the page load on here lately.

Do you think I should remove the ones from the left Navigation box if they are already on the top?

I guess that was a dumb question. I think I will try to stop asking them.

How does it look?
