[QUOTE="owangolama, post: 5234708, member: 92054"] Thanks for responding - much appreciated! Re the Black Horse Scout, thanks for the answer. I guess that would count as a typo then, since the sentence doesn't really work as is: +4 vs. Fortitude, and the target is dazed and deafened (save ends both). Just nix the "and." Sorry to be picky, but I'm all about things being as clear as possible, and especially when looking at new products for the first time, I want to be reassured that the thing I bought (or am spending time with) is high quality. Re Adventure #5 - Great! Re UI... hmm... how long do you have? :) There are quite a few things that would improve your site a lot. A whole lot. Some simple suggestions (which of course you can take or leave, but you asked, so here goes): - Just put less stuff on the pages. Every extra thing that you add to a given page takes away from everything that's already on the page. That can be frustrating, but it's just a fact of UI. - Subscribing is difficult. I disagree that you can't decrease the clicks. I tried several times to subscribe, but couldn't find how to do it until I realized that I had to register first. Actually, I'm not even sure if this is true, but in my case that's how it worked. And even then I had to scroll down to the bottom of the page and work with some pretty small type to make it happen. Since I'm subscribed now I can't go back and look easily, but if what I'm saying isn't making sense, please let me know and I'll just start a new registration so I can duplicate the process again. One take away from this is that you should be told that you have to register first. If you don't, you're continually faces with the same frustrating green graphic telling you to subscribe. - Side menus and other sidebar content are confusing and not consistent. And there's just too much stuff there. - Navigation methods - way too many. There's a menu along the top, and then another one in graphic boxes along the top, and sometimes navigation on both sides. A well-organized site does not need all these different options. You should be able to get things into a relatively simple tree structure that allows people to easily and intuitively find what they want. Fortunately, your audience is driven to find the content they want to see, so that's working in your favor, but if you didn't have that kind of audience, your site would drive them away. I could go on, but I think I've said enough for now. Hopefully you know that I'm only making suggestions because I'd like to see you be more successful; I'm not criticizing just for the sake of doing so. I am a fan of what you're doing, after all!
