Re: New Operation Sports Redesign Coming, Need Your Help

I had posted in Steve's Forum where he posted the question that I'd like to see a completely customizable front page with modules that you can pick and choose a la MyEspn.

It'd be nice to be able to pick and choose modules such as certain forums a user visits most frequently with a couple of the newest posts and/or topics displayed.

A user could also choose what type of game reviews he/she wants to display (whether it be baseball, football, racing, etc.).

There are numerous ideas for modules the site could incorporate beyond what I've already posted such as:
  • Staff Blogs
  • Flash montages of some of the latest screen shots for upcoming games
  • Realtime sports scoreboard/news applet
  • Latest reviews with a staff score and an OS users score (Gamespot)
  • A customizable module for users favorite links

I'm sure there are other module ideas that other OSers could come up with.

My guess is that the forums get most of the traffic (I know my bookmark is linked directly there) and it'd be better for the site to have visitors start at the main page and begin browsing from there. Being able to completely customize the front page to a users own liking would help accomplish that in my opinion.
