The staff have been discussing the possibility of making changes to the site's layout once again. We recently had that poll where we asked how you view topics; that was to give us direction in how we approached the redesign, specifically with regards to if more scrolling or more clicking was the larger of two evils. We want the site to be compact and "tidy", but still easily navigable. So here is what we've come up with so far (please excuse any "roughness" of the image, I had to do a lot of editing): These changes would significantly cut down on the amount of scrolling you'd have to do to find something you're interested in. Assume that if you don't see a board that's currently visible from the front page that it will be a child board of Miscellaneous Discussion (I just didn't want to type like 40 child boards). If you've got any opinions on the change or any specific criticisms/concerns, please let us know. We want this to be a positive change for you guys and for any possible new members, so we really, really need input.

Yeah that'll be there, I just didn't include the non-board part of the site.

I wonder if this will make the site run faster. I mean, not on my PC because it runs fine there, but my PS3 browser takes forever to load it. I know it's not the best place to post from but it's convenient if I'm already on the PS3.

Not sure. Typically what makes sites load slowly is a lot of images. I'm not sure the board icons would be enough to slow down a browser noticeably, but these changes certainly won't hurt.

I think you have to use the PS3's default browser. And disabling images would make this site look like poop.
Also, I'm going to give this poll until later today, at which point I'll make the changes. If you've got any comments or concerns, make them now. We consider the poll to be 8 in favor and 0 against, because Oom's vote is really for the changes and Handy didn't elaborate on why he chose "other" so it's irrelevant.
