So if I understood correctly, let's say I'm looking at the page for A Saucerful of Secrets, and next to the album title I can click open a dropdown menu with all Pink Floyd studio releases (and the same way with for example Live at Pompeii and an openable list of videos)? That sounds really good Clap

Have you thought about bringing back the country links? It got some support in here: http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=51596&PID=3939699&title=listing-by-country#3939699

I'm afraid I've lost all hope of the sidebar discography coming back...

I think M@X is thinking about this one...or something similar....unless he forgot.Tongue

Hoping for it Thumbs Up I remember it was promised to come back when it was taken away for a reason or another (just after I made some suggestions to improve it), but as it's been some years since that happened, I thought it would be... forgotten, yes.

Bringing this up to the new page so it won't get missed Smile

Okay.....not moaning then. Wrong choice of words. I take it back.

Sure there would.  When something needs changing, people bring it up, and other people improve and fix it.  In this case the forum looked awesome, there was no need for a monstrosity avatar. 

Though Snowie, of all the avatars out there, yours looks the best in the new size.  That dog is greatSmile

But it could be argued that the new size looked better and was an improvement. No one is correct about this. it's personal opinion obviously. I honestly like to see what avatar people have especially if they are really good. Of course you can open up the avatar in a new tab to see it but now I have no need to.

I view this page zoomed in a bit anyway so maybe I was already used to it.

And thanks for liking the dog.

And M@X mentioned your sig and not mine because I wasn't moaning about the new look.Wink

And I think his point was that you complain about the Avatar size but don't mind having a huge sig....is that right M:@X?Beer

Jim, the avatar size has just been reduced again. It's probably your browser that doesn't display the change yet.

Looks about the same as Snowie'sWink


But yeah, it is too big.  I just don't know how to make them smaller.  I will get rid of this one soon, I only picked it because it was announcing a great new album.

I'm with Henry still.  The previous size was more attractive and balanced on the forum page.  The new size looks unnaturally large, blurry in some cases, and intrusive overall.  JMO, but if it ain't broke....

Start with a big change, and then find a win-win solution (in between)



That's what the fuel and energy companies in the US do with their prices.  LOL
