Please Spoofee put the hot coupons bar back on the left on the main page. Its really messing with my head on the right side.
 
That's so funny! I hardly ever check the front page. I have the live posts bookmarked and access from there. Yesterday I clicked just to see what was there and noticed the change...and it threw me off too!

But I like it. I also like the way the submitting posters avatars show now.
 
I'm not too crazy about the new front page either. With the ads being on the right hand side it makes the front page look too busy. :confused:

And why do you hate right handed Spoofeers?

Are we not like you left handers?? We type on a keyboard, move the cursor around the page with a mouse and turn our computers on/off just like everyone else.

We have been looking at your left sided ads for years and not once have we complained! I am sickened by your lack of tolerance of RH Spoofeers.

RH Spoofers Unite!!!

Every RHer send SharonL a PM (Remember to type it using ONLY your right hand) and express your distaste with her LH attitude.
 
DiGriz, I am a righty and I grew up under the the strict rules of a lefty, so I completely understand where you are coming from.
He always tried to get me to conform, but I rebeled.
Shame on you Sharon. I expected more from you.

LOL LOL LOL LOL

You crack me up, DiGriz!! :claps:


Shhhhh....Don't tell DiGriz, but I agree w/ you Sharon and kcmo...lol.
 
I usually go in through the back door of spoofee, (that sounds odd!) but I go in by way of my little profile thingy because I used to find the front page so distracting, I really like it now, I never used the hot coupons so it was a pain to scroll over to see the daily specials, although full sizing it helped, I just switched the way I hit spoofee, I might change back.

It's not that I hate right handed spoofers I just think they're a little confused. :confused:


Joking! Please right handed spoofers do not send me scary pms. :boink: :p
 
Thanks for the opinion on this. Really helps to get feedback.

Let's keep it on the right side (hot coupons/ads) for now.
I noticed many sites that's probably done the research on usability (google, cnn, etc.) has the main content on the left / ads to the right.

I think it might be a little hard at first to get use to any change, but I think this will be a good one over the next month / new visitors.

Don't know how many newbies your gonna get with the site lagging and running so slow these days. Might be time to upgrade. Just a thought. :convinced:

Try using your RH. It works fine for me.;)
 
The problem to my eye isn't whether ads or coupons are left or right, but the wide margins which appeared on the front page. Maybe the margins were there all along, but it seems more pronounced now.

I'm viewing the site on a wide monitor (1280 pixels wide), and it looks as though the table that sets up the front page display has a hard-coded width (is it 880 pixels? or am I reading the code wrong?) The result is a crowded feeling, with margins wider than the column the Hot Coupons appear in (that column looks to be 155 pixels). This happens in both IE7 and FF2.

If the table width were changed to a relative width, in terms of percents, I think readability would improve. Did you code this on an XGA or a WXGA? With those column widths, it probably looks perfect on XGA.

Didn't they just update the site on APRIL 17th? Or maybe it was shortly thereafter, I just remember cuz that's when my bday was and the frikkin site crashed, LOL! I'm not sure if an upgrade is what it takes, but before the upgradem the site never lagged, makes me think corporate internetica has found new ways to drag the cash out of someone's behind....

Normally you go by a certain setup and just add the details you want? Does this sound right?
