Change to boards front page???

I'm not sure if you are trying to get more exposure to the ad's on the board or if you are just trying for a different look. If you're just going for a different look then I think moving the countdown and results of the last game up top would be much better.

 
I realize the ads have to be present. Have you considered having Landlord, Huskeraddict or Huskerguy redesign them to make them more consistent with the rest of the board and current/up to date?

And Landlord can you make that babes signature for me? :)

 
Not a big fan, but I understand having the ad on top so people can actually use them. As stated above, is there any chance it can be done on only the front page instead of every forum?

Thanks MODs for all for all of the hard work you do to keep this board running!

Unfortunately, no. The "header" (the part that contains everything from the Huskerboard banner through the yellow strip that contains the links for the Board rules, the schedule, fight songs, etc.) applies to every page. Changes to it apply to every page.

I noticed the recent changes, but didn't care enough to open this thread before now..

Just wondering if you could add the stuff on top without putting it on a header (thus not carrying it over to every page)..Just a thought.

I was also wondering what "Members2" was..I was looking at the members section to see if I could filter members by location..(I couldn't) and noticed the "Members2"..Thought it might be previously banned people or maybe other second class citizens..(but didn't see myself there)...Saw some that joined before and after me and some that had never posted (so how could they be banned w/o posting?).

I'd swear I remember seeing other posters living out here (in AZ), but I couldn't remember who.

We're messing with a few ideas, but so far we've found no solution. We're going to keep searching as we always want to keep the boards user-friendly, because users make HB a success.

Been looking for a way to do that, but haven't found it. Remember, the pages aren't static HTML pages; they are dynamic pages that are created when you hit them. We'll keep looking.

Members2 aren't banned - it's just an administrative setting for folks who opt out of HuskerBoard newsletters.

You might want to look at some of the posters in the "Arizonia" sub-forum in Plan-It Husker.

i've got one...stop using tables. you can do that all in css.
The software actually uses a healthy dose of CSS. But I'm not sure what using CSS entirely in the header solvers, per se. Again, if we put anything in the header - using tables, CSS or pictures - it shows up for every page.

 
well it seems that everything that is in those tables are from the same five or six websites. it might work a little better to put those in a single inline nav bar or even in a drop down nav and then have that huskernation banner ad rotate ads between the five or six websites that support the board.

even though the header applies to all pages, the rotator will still rotate the ads.

it would make the header much more clean taking the tables away (which is what the web is trending towards) and probably give your websites more prominence.
