Formatting Questions?
« on: August 10, 2017, 12:20:32 AM »
Hey guys, just have a couple questions in regards to formatting.

1) Does the banner look good where it is or should it go below the team logos?

2) I suggested this long ago but now I have the abilities to edit board styles so would you want separate boards within transactions for "Free Agents", "Drafts", "Trades", etc. or does the one board the way it is work for you?

Any other suggestions are welcomed.

The banner and the way the boards are currently set up is good for me. Good job, drew.

Yes! I like the logos below the banner, it's different. Just want the old style logo back without the background!! And a single page for transactions is best of course!

One thing I would love to see tweaked would be to add a hot-link to the Transactions page....it's the most used page by far. We don't need a link to the draft results, and having one to Free Agency Rules is redundant as there is already a link posted to the Rules Handbook. (And if we were to single out a rules page to link to, then the Extension Values are the ones we'd want!)

That's my take. Great job on the new header an all the moves!

Ya logos we will have to wait on because that is a system thing unless Anthony can fix for me.

I can put a transaction page link on there, would be easy enough. Was trying to make them relevant to what stage of the season we were in. See if others like that link for now? I'll change out Draft results for transaction page hot link for now!

I can't see the banner right now.

Less boards = better.

While we're discussing boards and formatting - In the processed transactions you have some that are stickied and some that are not.  This makes it hard to find completed transactions since they're not entirely sequential.  My suggestion is to unsticky all those that are stickied OR sticky all those that are not stickied...  What a sticky situation eh? 

Just an aesthetic suggestion.  It kinda bothers my OCD... ;)

I like the banner above the teams, but would it be possible to have the important links under the banner instead of above? I'd much prefer that.

As for pages, I'd like it kept all in one transaction page. I already completely forget about the Waivers page because it is off on its own. I agree with Rob about the sticky-ing. If we could come up with something consistent that would be best. I also default to thinking sticky-ed items are somewhat complete and do not need active attention, but that is not the case with trades needed TC votes.

  • dbreer23: Take two to tango, though. Most owners with adequate or surplus SP aren't interested in prospects as they're trying to win now.

    Yesterday at 02:46:48 PM
  • Daddy: Also agreed. Top quality pitching probably means not much depth. A few injuries can challenge you. Pitching other than top end pitching has been devalued in fantasy. Everyone wants the stud.

  • Braves155: The problem with the minors is not the system as a whole, it is some Farm Systems are more 'elite' at being able to produce talent than others. If you look across MLB teams you can pretty easily tell the great systems from the weaker systems and talent development

  • Braves155: With regard to pitching in the Minors...there is  method to the madness. It is all about what you make of it tho. I agree that it can seem certain type arms in the minors are a dime a dozen
