Site Design: Links, links, links Posted on 10/16/05 at 09:00:03 GMT |
Hi, I am only here to be a nuisance, and to cower in fear as I make a suggestion as an objective person, and a person whom many people object to. I'm on massive doses of hard drugs right now, and can't be held responsible for anything I say after this. I think there might be too many links on the home page. Also, I don't like how so many of them wrap. As far as all the xml and rss related links, I wonder about having a separate page them, and just keeping a couple high-priority ones. Perhaps I'm wrong, or perhaps I've misplaced some of my DNA, either way, you don't have my signature on anything so I can't be crucified. You may kill me, but keep in mind, I will only perish as a martyr and advocate of the toothpick industry, who are sick of people buying toothbrushes because it cuts back on the toothpick industry profits. And I think you should change the link text from "Main" to "Community". LIke failure points to GWB, so too can "community" point to Site Library. Googlebomb your own site. I'm bombed enough so don't worry about me. j/k

But I just put a link to your Syndicated Mental Dimensions Humor Ezine on the front page! I agree 100% with you though, really. I can't even find my way around myself, and I'm the one that put the links there. It would be a good idea to take a new objective look at the things on the front page and try to make some sense out of what really needs to be there. I've done it before, but it's been awhile, and things build up quickly around here.

That proves my point! I didn't even see it! It looks nice, especially with the link text being "humor ezine" Google bomb me baby!

I'll have to get Veela of the new Emotional Dimensions blog to come in and make objective suggestions to you. She gave me some pointers, even though the only html she knows is how to get to google using her bookmarks. She's got a good objective eye for design apparently. Plus there's the advantage of her not being as "used" to this site as you and I, and the others.

I noticed that. What's up with that? Do you know why it's going off like that?

It's because I changed the page, probably right when they're fixing to do an update. And the Yahoo! one picked up on me because I was messing around with their newsfeed info thingies.
