So the screen you see upon loading at the tags associated with the most recent posts that people have made. If you create a post you self-tag it using the #tag method. Choose a tag to explore all posts under that category. Posts without any #tag in them get assigned noTag
after initially being totally bemused - 'what is this?','how do i get it to do something'? 'what am i supposed to click?'
.. i returned here, read this comment and then after about 3-4 clicks I finally got it to actually deliver what i am after, which is actually seeing some content.
if this is about sharing / showing people some content - show people some content ! right from the beginning! then let them filter or whatever to dig in deeper and start posting their own etc
The idea was to try to create something that lives in the space between twitter and 4chan. You have the basic functionality of an image board, but it is much more free form and lends itself to short form messages
Yes, even I expected it to automatically tag images.
But after reading the instructions (which was hard to get at first look), I got what the site does.
Yeah. Already it's hard to remember why it wasn't clear. Maybe you should open up an example of thread and responses. Have the app show stuff to engage with right from the first page load, don't rely on people to click twice to see how it works. There's 12 things to click on the first view. Don't rely on them clicking the right thing.
Edit: What's that rabbit for, anyway? Why is the header/logo/mascot on the bottom right? Why does shit overlay it without covering it?
Thanks for the input. I'm going to change it so that some content is already open on page load, hopefully that will be a better starting point. The overlay is so that you can still tell something is loading with the ajax, but you are right, that might be a bit much, especially for the pictures
