New Site Design

OK gang - some of you have asked for an updated web site. So we’re actively working on it. What we need here is a list of things you want to have included.

No debate -no commentary, no getting off track. We want a laundry list so we know what we’re trying to build.

For this threads sake, my only request (if possible)

Aqualog for personal use and sharable with other members. :BEER

Photo gallery…ie
members tank
fish
corals
equipments
DIY

Choice of themes, like a default for the masses and then a clean minimalist one for those who want that.

Threaded private messages

Some of my favorite things I like from sites are product reviews, especially of products bought and used locally and tank, wet room tours.

Calculators - Volume, elec use etc
Possibly the ability to give premium members their own page delreefclub.org/username for their tank info or even tank tours.
More interactive/function forum

VERY annoying, random font size changes has got to go. Not sure what causes it, but I have a feeling when someone goes in to edit the home page, while they are working on it the whole site gets 5pt font until they save and exit. It’s not just my browser or a setting on my machine. Hopefully that won’t exist any more.

We need to keep the news feed and if the mods could change the home page that would be nice.

I agree I want the news feed to stay, but the ability to change the front page is going to remain very limited.

How about adding a chatroom, maybe once a month or so

How about making the banners in the sponsor section links to their site, not their forum. Or link the text to their site, that way we don’t have to hope their banner ad comes up when we want to go to their site.

Good suggestions everyone please keep them coming!
