Welcome to BackSheGoes.com!

Welcome!

We hope you enjoy the site, and we can't wait to see it grow.

The intention of BackSheGoes is to create a Phillies baseball community that straddles the line between groupthink of any kind, and challenges every member to contribute to intelligent baseball analysis the best way they know how.

My wife and I are the administrators and proprietors of the site, we're Don and Wendy, or VoxOrion and MrsVox. We wouldn't have made the decision to take on this adventure without the encouragement, assistance, and input of several people.

Running the site is important, but it's an empty vessel without the contributions of you - the most important factor in becoming a fantastic forum.

We'd like to thank (alphabetical order):

Uncle Milty

Woody

And particularly anyone from TheGoodPhight.com that I forgot. If I forgot you, it's because I forgot. If you don't want to be on this list, I'll take you off.

Things will probably be shaky for a while, please bear with us and have fun!

Some things the Mrs and I will be working on this weekend (no baby yet!):

Smaller header, smaller toolbar buttons, smaller "Post New Topic", buttons - probably make the edit button blue, create an AIM button (maybe clean those buttons up all together).

We realize things are a bit large right now.

One small comment:

The throbbing "Hot Topic" buttons are a little distracting and busy.

Interesting choice of words. Throbbing?

Pulsing and vein-filled?
you sure do seem to have a lot of time on your hands to be on this forum? Do you have a job? Are you a shut-in?

Do folks find the "hot topic" notification useful? I usually read what I want with or without that, the only notification I really require is the "read" vs. "unread" indicators.

Is it that the current method of identifying the "hot topics" is too much, or is it that the entire concept is unnecessary?

(that question is posed to all)

The Eagles MB changes its topic icons from green to red after 25 replies, but there isnt any animation...

The hot topic doesn't influence me either way. When I log on, I just read whatever I haven't read yet, unless the topic doesn't interest me.

Hot Topics

Postby Official Scorer » Fri Dec 29, 2006 23:28:15

As I have caught up on the previous threads here, I agree that the flashing icons are distracting. Isn't it enough to distinguish between threads that have been read and not read? Current hot topics should be nearer the top of the list. For me, that is enough to tell what folks are discussing.
