Amount of forums and forum design. Poll
Do you want the amount of forums/sections at TDTSC to be reduced and their topics merged into other forums?
Do you like the current design or do you want it to be changed?
Please post any suggestions here.

Re: Amount of forums and forum design. Poll
HI Tom
I don't think there is a lot wrong with the forum as it is, All that is needed is a duster to get the cobwebs off many threads and maybe if you want to bring it back some of the older threads that used to work.
Good luck and thanks for the mail it was appreciated

Re: Amount of forums and forum design. Poll
Thanks.
This is how TDTSC looked in the past from the internet archive:

http://web.archive.org/web/20040626022545/http://com2.runboard.com/btomdyerstitanicsitecommunity
http://web.archive.org/web/20051201080825/http://com2.runboard.com/btomdyerstitanicsitecommunity
Sadly they don’t have the orange and the green backgrounds we used to have. I’ve lost all copies of them if anyone somehow has any kind of copy of them please send them to me.

Re: Amount of forums and forum design. Poll
HI Tom
I would suggest out those three to stay with this as it is the easiest to open for people with slower machines, ( too many people make things for a super fast connection or computer but it is a misconception that everyone has both or indeed one of these)A rule of thumb that I was told by a tech director of a web design international company is that the site or board should be fully open in under 10 seconds for a slow machine. That way people are far less likely to go elsewhere.
So when people change there boards site etc they should use a emulator to check lower speed and see what happens.

Re: Amount of forums and forum design. Poll
The forums are nice the way they are now. Personally I think a simple color banner change (instead of your b&w banner) and a update to the clickable smilies are all that I would mess with.

Re: Amount of forums and forum design. Poll
I am thinking of removing/merging some of the more inactive forums to make the board a bit easier to navigate.
The threads that go in those forums, I think could easily be placed in other forums.
Any ideas?
