FanPost

A forum for HELPFUL suggestions for the new BSD

There is already a threat for people to discuss their feelings on the new SB United layout, but many of the posts seem to be general feedback or comments on the suckitude of Internet Explorer. I'm hoping that this can be a thread where we can collect our constructive suggestions for changes to the layout, because I think there is a lot of potential here.

I'm not entirely sure how much control over the layout the editors have/will have, so a comment from them on that would be helpful. Other than that, see what ideas we can come up with for making BSD the best blog in terms of layout on SBN (its already the best in terms of content).

To meet the word count, I'll get started by commenting on the main banner at the top of the page. I think this could be really cool. One possibility would be to always feature the newest main-page story, a highly recommended story or "editors choice", and a highly recommended Fan Post or "editors choice". Fan Shots could also be included, and then maybe somebody would finally read them.
