new layout

[Lionel]

Why did you change the hack section layout? The old way was much better. Specially now we have to see that first thread everywhere when it is a long one?

oh wow thats awsome, i didnt know they changed how the hacks go. i like that, looks more useful to me cause i always have a hardtime getting back to the first post after having about 20windows open.

I think it is good that it is on every page. It's not hard to scrool down - you're going to do that anyways. It's a lot easier to direct someone to the first post on the top of the current page than to send someone back about a hundred pages.

worst layout ever.

no really. You don't need to see it every page, and when it's set to minimise it expands the next page, to full size, making scrolling past it a pain every page transition.

The side bar also screws up the entire layout.

yuck yuck yuck.

The minimize option needs to go to a cookie for it to retain its position on all pages, its only been up a day, the kinks will get worked out in time

I agree. I've found it to be a major inconvenience, especially in the Warning Hack V1.5 thread. But I can recall occasions where it would have come in handy.

I suggest putting a link or icon in the postbit of hack release threads that when clicked on opens the original post in a new window. That way we can have the best of both worlds. It's also more intuitive that way as it's easier to look at windows from side to side, rather than up and down. Of couse I have no idea how that would be done.

I'd love to add something like that to my site, for downloads, is the new layout for hacks a hack that can be released?

So why even bother having a suggestions & feedback forum here?

It is a bit of a hassle to have to scoll down every page to complete the task you are trying to do, namely, read the actual posts. I think that's what the current feedback here is trying to say.

I'm sure the developers here will take this feedback and improve it in time. A cookie setting will help in a big way and make this 'improvement' complete.

Its kinda silly to repeat the top layout everytime, I have the same feeling like the popup windows. I think the better way is to make the member has an option to turn it on/off rather than push people to read the top part which is just a repeat...
