OK just a bit of feedback (trying to be constructive despite the fact that I really really really don't like it one bit)

Take a gander across to this thread and have yourself a gawk at it.

Now as it stands at this second in time, there are no posts in that thread at all. How you can have a thread with no posts in is beyond me. [insert scratching head smilie here] [insert dunce smilie here]

Now looking at it impartially I see potential for it. However as discussed previously in this thread, the fact that I can tick and untick the boxes at will is very disconcerting. The tabular layout is simply too big for my screen. I'm still running on 800x600 which isn't a popualr resolution so perhaps you haven't noticed this.

I notice that some changes have been made since yesterday. These are positive.

As a suggestion about this, why not make it a link below the thread title labelled description or such like and then have that bringing up the thingy in a pop-up window? The thingy muct be shown on the first page, however, IMO A first post should also be made.

IMO the box thingy (I can't get a decent desriptive word into my worn out brain at the moment) should only have a very basic overview.

An example could be something like


Kerry-Anne's Pretend Hack

This hack installs a link that pretends to open a new window on site A but instead bomards you with p0rn popups from site B

Obviously this would be tabular. All the additional information would then go into post #1 of the thread leaving the thingy (sorry again) to just have the essential details in and so will not be 3 miles long.

IMO there should be a 500 character limit on the hack description in the thingy to prevent the length becoming overpowering and also to make it easier to see in a nutshell what it is all about.



If one of the site staff can edit all instances of thingy in this post to the correct term for the thingy then I would appreciate it. I just don't know what to call it. I think it needs a one word name. Anyone agree with George?
