You may have noticed a few changes to the front page of Carcassonne Central.

We now have a Headline section on the left hand side.

The Forum's Hot Topics are on the right.

There are now 3 sets of recent posts for 3 topics: General, Competition/League Games, and Crafter's Workshop.

I'll be making a few more modifications over the coming days, but if you're seeing anything strange please let me know here.

I am a little annoyed that I can subscribe to threads but I cannot mark threads of no interest to me as automatically read.

Looks great Decar! Merit :(y)

I really like the Headlines box particularly - good to replace that age old link to TableTop!

I like it too, but the "Hot Topics" - hmm - only the "I love the postman" is a real "Hot Topic".

But I would prefer some topics like the polls and information from whaleyland.

examples "The Babarien Report"or the list for all the "element of the week (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=2113.0)" or the list for jungleboys  "Completionism Poll: Index (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=2514.0)"

That could be the "headlines II"

Sorry you feel like this Asparagus - I understand the frustration, but I'm afraid that's outside of my remit and beyond the technical capabilities of the forum at the moment.

Thank you kindly - we should really thank Gantry for allowing me to do this & kettlefish for spotting my mistakes :)

Yes, I wasn't sure about this - they are not really HOT, but they are the top 5-topics with the most replies.

The Babarien Report || Element of the week || Completionism & Favouritism Poll

I'll add these to the list of important topics.

First, I think we need to engage new players better - I'm putting together some introductory articles.

Decar has changed a bit more today.

Look at the first page "Home"

We hope you enjoy the new look.

More will come in the next time.
