don't know if this has come up before, but i have a
suggestion for how the message board works that would make
things alot better for me at least.

instead, or maybe in addition to having
the page dropdown, how about having an input box for how
many threads you'd like to see? or have arrows for "next
page", "prev page"? it would make navigation alot more
clear.

navigation is not needed, richard told Phobiazero to have
this messageboard, kaotic !! and now as the days go buy we
ahve more and more members, and more and more shittier
threads and replies

so richards work is done.

i love xltronic.com

theres quite a difference between having chaotic content and
having chaotic navigation. i'm just talking about improving
the navigation.

it seems like something really simple that would improve the
board alot IMO

You can set how many threads/posts per page you want. I
agree on the other point though.

I think it is perfect the way it is. Click and use the
delete button, that's the way I do it...makes life nice and
easy.

you should write an email to tunemx, i believe he's the guy
that could add the 'arrows' thingy.

i think the whole set up for this MB makes it very easy to
use, but a few lil additions might be nice!

I cant think of a time they have...

i would like to see a link to the discography inside a
thread...

if you are reading a topic and want to reference the
xltronic discography, you have to exit the thread and click
on the link from the mb main page..

...pain in the ass

know what would be sweet?

kind of along those lines pomme... but instead... make it
that the board automatically links an artist name to their
respective page

so if I was like "aphex twin is the best ever" the board
would automatically make "aphex twin" a link to his discog

but that would probably be really hard to do

i would like to see a link back to the forum from the
discography page. or a link back to the main discography
page from anywhere inside the discography.

that would be nice.

This is kind of retarded. But I'd love more color schemes...
not SKINS, per se... this board is mega hott. Perfect
design. But I've fantasized about having some blues, some
hot pinks, maybe a nice creamy white... some other colors in
there, shakin' things up. Choose the color of the background
(that tan-ish hue), the BACK background (the black/grey),
the buttons, the links... oh man.

It's not a knock on the default scheme, I love it and I'd
inevitably go back to it. But sometimes I need a change.

i think this message board is good except i'd like a "skip
to page" on the main thread list, so you don't always have
to go to the first 25 posts in a thread you can just skip to
the last.

actually, that will be implimented soon.

the feature will be a link on the artists discography
page(s) that says something to the effect of 'discuss this
release in the fourum'

then it automatically creates a thread with the topic title
being that release. if a thread already exists about that
release, then the link will reference you back to the thread
that's already going..

be on the lookout for this feature soon.

there is an option at the top of the thread that says
'display newest messages first" this will get you what you
want

are you talking about something like having a duplicate of
the page skip that appears at the bottom of a thread?

maybe something like the inivision boards have where by the
title of the topic there's a little arrow type thing, when
you click on it, it takes you to the first post that you
haven't read

I use it sometimes

we're working on some new features for this messageboard.
just wait for them. maybe some solutions will be in the next
version?

as soon as the proper layout is applied to the site it'll
get much easier to access various sections. navigation has
always been of high priority for me, so no worries.

when everything is on it's right place we'll have a look on
it all (from above) and optimize the site as much as
possible.

i'm very well aware the site is currently lacking proper
layout/navigation and believe me i'm the one suffering most
from this.

what's even better - summer is done here. fall is coming up.
that alone speaks alot for xltronic and it's progress. *know
what i mean... ey?ey?* ;-)

we have quite an comprehensive TODO-list available for the
Mods (it's non-official and tagged Top Secret), but im sure
most of you would cream your pants if you saw it...... some
really nice goodies/features there, along with the actual
contents that will build Xltronic. add a nice
userinterface/design to that and you should have a quite
decent site to hang out on.
