Make General section longer, please
Sunday, November 20, 2005 by aimzzz | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Could the General section be made longer in order to show more live threads? As I write, only 3 live threads are visible in General on the Forums main page. All others are sticky. Threads that sink off the main page won't be seen or answered by most folk... 
Thanks
Thanks

What I'd like to see is a window giving us the ability to simply scroll through the topics without having to click on "more..." It would be great if we could scroll through all the different forums this way.

That and the ability to resize the section windows. Then those with high res displays can use up the space and those with low res can see more of the sections they are interested in. Of course this assumes you have unlimited staff to put on re-doing all the coding, so slip that ability to "skin" the forum pages into the mix too.

This next year we're hoping to move a bit to AJAX and you'll see much more sophisticated content then.
I also suggest using Stardock Central now. The new version (not sure if it's public or not) lets you hide the other sections so you can easily read the forums.
