Your Opinion Needed

Posted in Uncategorized on May 11th, 2006

We (the staff) think that the header for the site is a little bulky. We want to trim it down a bit so that it does not take up as much vertical space. Does everyone agree with us? Against it? Thoughts? Suggestions? Lets hear them all!

Cheers,

  1. ya We shurd

  2. i really think you should change it…as time goes on, change is ineviteble

  3. o.o;;;;

  4. I think a change would be nice, even though I’m used to that header.

  5. What I think… you should just call it FFR

  6. I like it how it is, but if you really wish to change it then go for it. May I suggest a comparison or a poll? Have people choose which they like best, the old header or the new one you want to put. Have a picture of them side by side and let them vote!

    Well, that’s my opinion….

  7. Do it.

  8. less bulky is good just leave all the guide links in the same place.

  9. I definitly think it could be summed up a little.

  10. Yes. Trim away! Remove that big blue block that has the FFR logo in it, along with the top bar that has the words FFR.com in it, and make something new, sleeker and thinner.

  11. Well, in my opinion.. you could sum it up just a bit. ;) But I like it the way it is!

    But what I don’t like is when you’re playing FFR, and doing multiplayer, you have to scroll ( or for my computer) between the chat and song.

  12. Have you thought about using a resolution like 1280×1024?

  13. Yea i agree some more vertical space would be nice

  14. A change sounds nice…

  15. Looks fine to me… it doesn’t really affect anything because when I’m playing I only see from my health bar to the top of perfect/good/boo etc.

  16. seems like it would be good to consolidate the top block into the current ad block right below it.

  17. sounds good.

  18. I think that your guys idea is good. The heading needs a little trim, but i dont think thatt players really noticed how big it is. I agree that you should decrease the size of the header

  19. Trim it up.

  20. I say preview.

  21. I’m all for it.

    What I suggest you do is eliminate the date/time header at the very top of the page. Most of us have the time on the toolbar (for Windows users)… and … I’ve never had a Mac (if Macs support this), but I’m sure people who have Macs have a clock somewhere. Lol. Also, I think the link on the left that say “Click here to play FFR” can be eliminated; considering the same link is already on the bar below it (i.e. the “Home: FFR the game: Psychopath: …, etc., etc.).

    I think it would be more aesthetically appealing to make the Flash Flash Revolution bar (the one with the little dancing man to the left) slimmer and take up the entire bar length-wise.

    Perhaps a new color scheme would be a good change. But I know that’s not what the staff is asking for.

    I’m not a programmer or into computer design, but if the staff is really interested in what my design is for the homepage, I’ll draw it out on paper and send a link to who-so-ever is interested’s email. Just send me a reply/message and let me know. ^^

  22. yeah deff. go ahead.

  23. yeah it would be nice to have a bit more room this site is very jammed but its layed out fairly well consitering… but i definitly think taking a poll (between a couple new ideas) would be a good way to please everyone as long as everything still fit.. i remeber recently the game screen was a bit off but yeah good work keepin this place up and runnin!

  24. Take off the top rectangle with the logo and name in it, take off the top line that also contains the date, and create a thinner graphic that has the site name and includes the date on the side. There’s no need for two titles, after all.

  25. Stop thinking about it and Keep your mind on R3 lol
    *pls pls don’t get distracted*

    I love this game and dont mean to critizise you guys are doing your best but im super anxious……

  26. [IMG]http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a124/AceJay/FFRBanner.jpg[/IMG]

    You get the idea, something like that.

  27. my opinion costs ;)

  28. Take out the “Click Here to Play FFR” button. Useless having 2

  29. Good luck selling them somewhere. :)

  30. I think the header is a little on the big side lol. A change would be nice :)

  31. im thinkin its a good idea so go for it :P

  32. i agree…i dont like the fact you have to scroll down on multiplayer…maybe a trim will help a bit? or an option in FFR multiplayer to close the screens about how you did (not sure what to call them…) so you can see the screen box?

    but yes…trim away! i dont think you need a ‘click here to play FFR‘ button almost right on top of the ‘FFR the game’ button…

  33. But some of us (e.g. myself) don’t have computer that have that resolution. I know… My computer is more 10+ years old. Lol.

    Would it be plausible to put the chat box on the right side of the screen (i.e. next to the gaming window), and make the little boxes below each person’s name in MP smaller to fit? (the ones that have the ‘M’-looking thing that changes colors when you select things/have the game loaded..thing).

    I know.

    I’m so good with technical jargon.

    But uhm.. if that doesn’t make sense, I can draw it out XD; Art is like.. the only thing I’m good at

    xB.

  34. I say go for it.

  35. That header is so ghetto. I remember a long time ago when you switched it and it was orange and silver and blue and it was all curvy lines and such. That was pretty. Make the header smaller, maybe have it stretch across the whole page and have “FlashFlashRevolution.com” centered on the page.

  36. YES PLEASE!
    Get rid of the ads.
    Call it FFR

  37. What I recommend: Ditto on all previous comments. Everything except the FFR logo could practically go without harm to anything else. Everything can just be shoved onto the side of the screen (or already there). Just make the font bigger on the side, move the ads aside keep the familiar logo, and delete everything else off the top of the site. Not too harsh, is it?

  38. Eh, I don’t dare try to change the resolution of my computer. x_x! I already have enough trouble as it is tweaking around and getting rid/blocking garbage. :x

    Try something like that, with an image map or whatever it’s called. Or make it Flash-enabled with. It’d probably have to be resized, but it would work.

  40. Hmm, the header is cool because its old school and really 2001 looking. But a change would be nice.

  41. You should hold a designing contest for the new banner of FFR. I think I could go either way, it looks fine the way it is now, but if you got a new one that would be kick ass.

  42. I think that taking away the click here to play FFR button should be taken away if anything. You should also get rid of everthing above it, we already know what site we’re on. Also, get rid of all that blank space thats under everthing. We don’t need to see that many hot forum threads

  43. Frankly.. I think a new lay out is in order.

    It’s very plain if you ask me :)

  44. In my opinion, it isn’t quite necessary. Although it would possibly look better, I think you should direct your work in to new songs and even a new Style of music within the Game. To me, this is a game and all I care about is how the game performs. I couldn’t care less how it looks. As long as it performs without malfunctions etc.

  45. It looks fine the way it is. I wouldn’t make it any bigger though.

  46. Yes i think it would be reasonably smart to trim down the header.It seems like a good idea to me.

  47. I reckon that you need to get rid of that block of ads and move it down to the bottom, and put the click to play here and current verison title on the side just above ‘Who’s On FFR’ and maybe trim the top a little.

  48. I think it looks fine, personally, but maybe a change would be nice

  49. The change would be nice, and i think you should just shorten it to FFR

  50. Do what you want, dude. If we don’t like it, the worst we could do is get a little angry and then just keep playing because this game is so darn addicting.

  51. I like Neonatrias’ idea. Cut up everything from the links up and make it sexy… unless the ads need to stay there… *shudder*

  52. lol

  53. A new header would be awesome.

  54. i think they should leave it.. I like the name!!

  55. I honestly like the name…but i think it should just be trimmed down like FFR….like ddr…<3

  56. ya kinda bulky tone a little bit

  57. allways thought it was oddly large for a header.

  58. could use a bit of a tummy tuck, IMO

  59. leave it the way it is. i screen cut, so itll easier for me to just scroll all the way up instead of having to precisely resize the screen each time i revisit

  60. I cannot log out…the 1st time I logged in was yesterday, and when I was leaving the computer, I logged out. The next day, I went to this website, and the problem is: there’s no place to put my name and my password….. it’s because I’m still logged in!!!!!!
    why??? is there logout problems now???

  61. I think it would be nice to change the header. I also think that you should change the color!!!!

  62. The block needs to be made into one solid, thinner header with more “style” 8)

  63. I think this would be a perfect time to bring back the spontanious contests and this can be the 1st of the new contests (although not that spontanious). I think you should wiat for about 20 people to send in header ideas, then take the 5-10 of the ones that you think are the best and have us vote on it! its not really the “style” of the other ones but it would be cool to help more then just saying “yes” or “no”….

  64. YES, thin it out. The site is too bulky.

  65. Ok, how about a site like say just the plain old flashflashrevolution.com has the new slimmer sleeker thinner less informational header or whatever header you guys want as a new version, and then have a seperate site like flashflashrevolution.com/old could have the old original FFR setup with the old header and like everything else the same, like the layout, but the games would always be the same on both sites. I believe this would make the people who want a new header happier that they got a new header and make the people (such as me) who like the old header to remain the same.

    What do you think?

    all you pretty much have to do (i think) is redirect the original page to flashflashrevolutionn.com to the /old url and create a new header and use that as the normal main page.

  66. i am soo fat its not funny!

  67. poopy fart shart man is koolaid!!!

  68. Change is needed

    The DDR Extreme Logo uses criss-crossing letter. The pic in the logo could be used like that to make a smaller logo. A Smaller one is nessesary, but if it were smaller, please put it in the center, or on the right. That would look better.

  69. You definitely picked the wrongest possible place to post this. Good job.

  70. It could probably be about 100 pixels high. Just a new, snazzmatazzed way to show the logo on the left, and the cobaltflux banner to the right. You’ve got lots and lots of blue space right now, so the least you could do is get rid of that.

  71. I think that it is a lot to type..maybe it should be like ffr or something like that….a change would be nice…<3
