Author Topic: Push This Down! Rob Butler Film Handler Posts: 91 From: Westford, MA, USA Registered: Mar 2004 posted 05-21-2004 01:09 PM                     I gotta say that it does seem funny to me that in this new forum, the most popular topic is the one against the forum.  |  IP: Logged Jeremy Fuentes Mmmm, Dr. Pepper! Posts: 1168 From: Corpus Christi, TX United States Registered: Jan 2004 posted 05-21-2004 01:15 PM                     Rob, I think the biggest argument is against the location of the forum, and not the forum itself. I myself would prefer if the forums would rotate to different locations automatically.  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 05-21-2004 08:48 PM                        Maybe the POST REPLY button should be replaced with an I'M FEELING LUCKY button, like Google has. You hit that button, and your post goes into a random forum, and if it's the wrong one, you get banned.  |  IP: Logged Steve Kraus Film God Posts: 4094 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 05-21-2004 09:15 PM                    15/70 isn't large, it's LARGE. Get it? That much is obvious. Why the text must visually represent that is what isn't clear. Just seems gimmicky as though if there ever was a 16mm forum it would need to have its name in a tiny font. The real downside is that it draws the eye in a way that makes it seem like the forum is more important. Not a hallmark of good design. Bobby?  |  IP: Logged Kyle McEachern Expert Film Handler Posts: 165 From: San Francisco, CA Registered: Feb 2004 posted 05-21-2004 11:38 PM                 quote: Steve Not a hallmark of good design.

Better make sure not to use Arial either.  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 05-22-2004 12:14 AM                     Film Handler's Forum would probably look good in Trajan.  |  IP: Logged Steve Kraus Film God Posts: 4094 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 05-22-2004 12:42 AM                    I think if I had the power to initiate a new forum and it went 12 days without any posts except those about the forum you'd have pulled the plug on my little venture by now!  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 05-22-2004 09:12 AM                     I guess it is because in the large format world things tend to just run along with out all the issues many other formats have  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 05-22-2004 05:40 PM                     There aren't nearly as many screens in the large format world either. Math is math. Still, this is a film/presentation based website and both "film forums" shall remain at the top. Why can't everyone just stop whining??? Geez.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 05-22-2004 06:01 PM                        I say we push Ground Level down or just delete it altogether (along with everybody's posts). Nobody cares about floorstaff or managers anyway. They're not even real people! They just get in the way when you are trying to extort them. Damn I can't wait until next April Fool's. I have some great ideas for this forum. What date does April 1st fall on again? Oh it doesn't matter.  |  IP: Logged Jeremy Fuentes Mmmm, Dr. Pepper!

Oh yeah, thats right, he can still put them in the joke forum.  |  IP: Logged
