Here we go guy's and gal's

Please submit your 2 cents worth on what we can do to make the Lexus Owners Club a better website.

Suggestions on the following:

javadude · June 19, 2002

I think everything's great and I can't think of anyway to improve on it.

Grangey · June 19, 2002

How about an entry in Members Profile for their real name? I can't remember who's who!

Monster-Mat · June 19, 2002

like the MG one..........

Zee007 · June 19, 2002

a u2u icon on the tool bar would be great Steve - because although it flashes when you have a message waiting (which is excellent), I can't access it without going to control panel to look back at messages... Other than that, it serves its purpose very, very well.... It does exactly what it says on the tin!!! :tumble:

I agree,especially when I need to send private messages.

andyhart21 · June 19, 2002

I always liked the option to view the last 5 days posts. Handy when you cant visit the site for a few days

Steve · June 19, 2002

hmm that seems strange zee.. you should have a link next to the flashing envelope that will create a pop up of your u2u

Zee007 · June 19, 2002

I do Steve - but that's WHEN it's flashing... how about if I want to access it even though I have no new messages?

Steve · June 19, 2002

on the main forum page there is a tool bar with the mood changer on.. above that is a link called U2U Instant Messenger.. double click that and the u2u will pop up

Zee007 · June 19, 2002

ok - thats cool. I just meant that where it usually flashes is really convinient - so no matter what screen you are on you can access your u2u - you don't have to go back to the main page...:)

Steve · June 19, 2002

I usually click someone elses U2U button on a post and instaed of sending a message click inbox

Zee007 · June 19, 2002

AHAH.... Good thinking batman.... :bounce:

red6 · June 19, 2002

I agree with andyhart21. If you're away for a while, you just have to hope that not much has gone on. Unless you can timestamp a cookie so it knows when you last checked, but I guess this could get awkward. It'd also be good to see who's logged on from all screens, not just the front of the forums.

peter-flint · July 18, 2002

The new home page is a bit small, stuck there down in the bottom left corner

Steve · July 18, 2002

what size screen are you on peter?

What resoltion as well.. i will alter this a touch....

The front page is meant to be small... spose to be a design :lol:

Jimmy Ten Toes · July 18, 2002

IMO On the whole I think the main site is fine, I just think the colours could be a bit more striking. The Gold areas are much better. Only a minor thing.;)

Claire G · July 18, 2002

I agree with the others about having an option to see the last few days' posts.

Colour wise, I think that we could make the whole look and feel a little more exciting and striking.

Just minor points - the site is excellent on the whole! :bounce:

Steve · July 18, 2002

the reason why I removed the 5 day last post thing was because of server load.. seeing posts from the last five days caused the server to have a heat attack LOL

Looking to upgrade the specs on the server soon.

As for colors.. well can i have some ideas on colours please guys??

Jimmy Ten Toes · July 19, 2002

I think the Gold forum is excellent, so maybe something along the lines of the Gold forum for the main one, and then slightly modify the Gold one to contain more gold and maybe black, IMO:D

This sounds like a great idea

Steve,

I like the site very much, the only suggestion that I have is that it would be good to see how many IS/GS etc members we have.

At present we don't ask members what Lexus they have when they join. I would love to know hoe many GS 430 owners there are in the club for example?

Otherwise fine.

That is a good point. well thought of Dave :lol:

Steve · July 19, 2002

ack... i could do a poll.. put not all would put the correct answer... anway.. to get a percentage of GS ownners as a rought guide then go to the main news page and look at the polls.

I do suggest everyone placing there car in their sigs until i manage to alter the forums to let users add their car

keep them coming guys!
