Question Suggestions for poss improvements to gallery Page

Hi I have a suggestion for you based on my own experience trying to find something in SCS forum..

Please note this may be stating the completely obvious to those VERY familiar with this forum but I HAVE to be honest and say for me it was not obvious and in the end I had to post a q to find the info... and Donna kindly told me where to find them.. Also NOW I know where to find the items it is no longer hard to see them of course :-)

If you look at the gallery page you will see a LOT of GREY text and I am wondering if it would be possible to make certain things more noticeable so they stand out more.. Maybe there is a valid reason for the only colour other than grey to be at the very top of the page ... with the exception of the green twisties in the table that take you to last comment posted..

Concentrating on the areas BELOW the green line this is what we see and the order we see it

1. Links to elsewhere " Ads by Google, Rubebr stampcraft etc etc ( Grey underlined text- hyperlink) do these have to be at the top of the page - seems odd they catch my eye BEFORE teh next row which I need more than the hyperlinks..

2. My Gallery, My Albums, My favourites SPACES Home Search Profile Upload photos ( All Grey Text)

3. Welcome XXXXX black space Search Box etc ( Grey text)

4. A large Table Categories , photos comments etc etc ( Grey text)


***********************************************

I WAS looking for my Favourites, and I guess because it was all in Grey & it was not in the table my eye did not see ( My Gallery, My Albums & My Favourites...

Suggestions:-

1. Either alternate between Grey Green and Orange for those 3 items

2. Have them all one colour to make them stand out more

3. Put those 3 in a box or mini table to draw attention to them

4. Place that whole row My Gallery through to Upload Photos on a coloured background to make it stand out

5. Move hyperlinks elsewhere - unless we are supposed to be drawn to those before finding 3 items above

6. A final point maybe some colour could be introduced tothe table so instead of being 2 shades of grey coudl be a diff colour again reducing the amount of grey on the page..

I hope this makes sense and look forward to your reply

Hi, Tamba! Thanks for your suggestions! We can't promise that we'll put any of these suggestions into use, but we'll certainly think about it as we work on improving the gallery!
