Having a Stuff page for Resources and Merchandise information is a good idea. Maybe it would be better to have it called something like "Media" or "Guide" since it's the new location for the free images as well as a merchandise guide?

It doesn't even have to be linked from the sidebar if that's all it's going to be. Perhaps it's current link there can be replaced with a link to your items on hand? the link to 'Stuff' could go somewhere else, such as in the News/Explore pages, for example.

"everything else" "Adam's spot" "neat/cool stuff"

I really like the new "coming soon" page!! It's much more interesint and easier to read :) Good jog on that, Adam :)

Just wondering, where would "calendar" be moved to? That's the most used page for me as I need to check when the next pets day is for AG and other things.

I think that would clutter up those pages and also make "stuff" harder to get to.

I agree. If they're getting rid of the world page (or making it less functional) it would be easy enough to slide it into the sidebar in the vacant spot.

I love the new "Coming Soon" page too as well as most. The pictures give you an idea of what it means will come :). Err....Dice a Roo II won't be a "gambling" game that neo won't let me play...right?

Maybe you should call the 'stuff' page 'interactive' instead?

The pet central page should be re-designed with all these new things and i don't really know what 'pronounciation' or 'neopedia' comes under explore... >< It just doesn't fit...

I really like the idea of a "Stuff" page instead of the "world" page. I never use it. Good call on the 'coming soon' page too. ^^ It's much easier to understand now.

"Stuff"......it's a fun word to say. Yeah, it's better. Very spiffy...hey, you can make people get attention by renaming it "spiffyness"...haha. Just kidding.

soon i feel "the stuff" will consume the world page

Sat Nov 20, 2004 11:53 pm

Oh Stuff! I like that ... Stuff just can encompass so much :) If people don't like just "Stuff", how about Neostuff ... I have a question and a suggestion?

First, the question - the things that are on the current World page - all pet, petpets, calendar, world events, send greeting, etc. - will all of that being going to the Stuff page along with the fun images, backgrounds, etc. (great to have all of that in one place, btw)?

And my suggestion ... I know alot of you can do this, but I can't and I know loads of other people who can't. What can't we do? We can't change/fix/add or delete anything from our lookups without having to change our password every single time. It gets so confusing! The lookup editing box used to be on the main boards page and it was just so much more efficient and easier to use, especially with all the changes that keep coming.

Is there any way to move the "about me" box somewhere where you wouldn't have to change your password? That would be easily accessible to everyone without feeling like we're "jumping through hoops" just to move something or correct a misspelling? Plus, there wouldn't (hopefully) be all those "where's the user preference page" questions re: where to put css for lookups.

I understand security and the need to change it regularly. A few sites I go to have something that after a certain amount of time (usually every 3 months), as I sign in I get sent to a message page saying I haven't changed my password in that amount of time, would I like to change it now? If I say no, then every time I sign in, I'll keep getting that page until I DO change it.

Maybe you could hold a contest to name the Stuff page! If nothing else a name the stuff page as a Random Contest!

Or just name it: Doodads


And, yes, I think doing away with the world page is a good thing. I never quit understood why it was there in the first place.

i like it being called stuff :)

could the calendar be linked to from pet central or the news page?

Something i wanted to ask, it may be me being dippy, but i cant find a link to the gallery of heroes anywhere, if i want to go there i have always typed in the address or gone via the news.
