Layout of the Portal 07/09/2008 09:07 am Karma: 6  
What do you folks think of the layout? The music player is at the bottom of the screen. Should it be on the top? Side? Do you like the buddy list and chatting capabilities?

I would love to hear your opinions on the portal. This is a community and I would love to be able to make decisions as one.

Thanks everyone!

Few things (few of which I've already suggested):
- Music player can stay wherever
- When you connect, pop-up the News and Forum tabs automatically
- please add a link from the portal so I can visit d-cot.com as well as the forums in general
- maybe clean up the D-COT NEWS and FORUMS buttons. Kinda big and unnecessary. Could be cleaner?

Just my $0.02

I agree with Ambo. Have the tabs come up automatically instead of it signing in. Also, one of the big things i agree on is having a link to d-cot directly from the portal. I guess right now we can only link to thread subscriptions. Especially with what im doing now. If one of the songs stops everything id like to be able to link directly to the forum and report that song. Although i did subscribe to that thread, so in essence i do have a direct link to that thread..lol!! But in general, having that access is always a plus.

I would also say that once you have a viewable playlist ready, have that displayed where you currently have the latest track additions displayed. Or even where we can customize the playlists.

I don't think I understand. Once you select a playlist you want it to be displayed where the latest tracks are shown?

I think what he's saying is in the future he wants when you select a playlist a list of the songs IN THAT PLAYLIST appear in a box. Then, you can click and choose songs to listen to.

I guess i should have been more descriptive with my vague comment..lol.

By viewable playlist, i mean all the available songs on d-cot. Something where the listener can browse through all that songs you have in your library basically.

I see what you're saying now. Perhaps I can add a playlist that drops down below the player to show you what's coming up.

Definitely. Eventually I will create a window pop up with a paginated list of ALL the songs in the music library with what default playlist they belong to. From there you can search and add what you like to your customized playlist.
