In that case, don't worry, we have a lot of that kind of stuff intended.
Also, I have collated what I can, let me know if I've missed anything.
Feedback so farFeedback
Structure and Advertising
- Need to look at moving the ad on the left of the articles.
- Advertising only appears on index, not in game sections.
- Advert on left covers the left side menu in Opera.
- Try to get the sidebars to be a little more even.
- It's a long scroll to get to the bottom.
- Widen right sidebar so that Twitter stuff is displayed better (ie, don't have 'favourites' on it's own line).
- Consider width of Aeris Reborn - time to get this set to 1024 pixels, surely?
- Consider the number of games in the games menu - possibly adjust it somehow to something that fits into the page a little easier.
- Need header area for articles, possibly including avatars for people submitting content.
- Similar to the above: Need a more obvious barrier between articles.
Colour/Images/Font
- Need more images!
- Need to colour in the currently black background behind text for articles (in Classic styles).
- Consider replacing banner on EoFF Classic style.
- Consider background images, potentially different ones depending on the game being viewed.
- Consider whether no 'clear' columns could make Kupo! style seem messy.
- Consider using images instead of text to link to game sections.
- Replace JPGs with PNGs.
- Avoid Times New Roman.
Functionality
-Comments do not work- Fixed
- Happy Noodle Boy clicked on a character portrait and got redirected to forums. Will need to check over links, possibly worth a focused feedback thread for this at some point to ensure that they are all working as intended.
- Having to go to a new page to read comments/full article annoys chionos (as much as I'd like that, it's a no-chancer as far as I'm concerned... vB isn't that good yet!)
- Bring back the 'Latest threads' links on the frontsite.
- See if it's possible to collapse Twitter widgets.
Content
- FF Artwork from community.
- FF YouTube videos.
- Promote some good blog entries related to FF.
- Featured images for content.
Miscellaneous
- FF:TSW lists character genders as scallywag/wench.
- When clicking into the frontsite, the Forums tab is still highlighted as if you were in the forums.
- Some old articles/news entries still have HTML showing.
- Ordering of tabs could use a change.
- Consider renaming "Neptune Spire's Inn" to "Timber Maniacs".




That's still something we, the community, made that was FF related and interesting. Of course we should put FF related content on the frontsite of an FF forum, that's a no brainer, but you have entire force of bored fans here that you could get to do something constructive. Be it a post monthly of community FF artwork, or a well thought out blog post of why blue mages suck rocks. You then become not just an FF fansite but an FF community. Fansites are a dime a dozen. They are everywhere. What makes this place, this place is our community. With it being so important, why are we skimping on it now? We the members are what makes EoFF, EoFF. Why not show the world how awesome we are?
