Official BowlingBoards.com New Design Suggestion Thread

Not really adding anything here but these 2 things I would like to keep. I really like the chat box on the home page and also the blogs. Very good idea to give away a ball in order to get some activity to the site and give people an incentive to come back daily.

In regards to reviews and such, would you like to be able to click on a bowling ball and read the tech specs? Or it does not matter to you?

<ball geek on>
I pay a lot of attention to the tech specs, so that would be a good thing to have. One thought would be to not link to an outside source, but actually keep them in the actual ball description area (Which would cut down on code).

Perhaps if we were to put a wish list for the ball info would also be OOB finish of each ball - and factory description on how to achieve it. Reason for that is LM/L has a specific way to get their balls to OOB, and RotoGrip and Hammer both have their own methods of creating 4000 abralon that skips a bunch of intermediate steps that many assume are there.

Two Things I would like Added
1. Have a video layout on the 3 styles (stroker) (Tweener) (Cranker) Add the best video views on Why you or they bowl that way and what stances are used for each, and where there eyes are for each style. Then How and Why movements are needed..

2. {Ball Layouts} Have all the Different layouts known for each different styles and what they do with video back ups, also mixed with member layouts and why they have theres, with video back ups.
(maybe an interactive area so that members can play with the different layouts to see whats best for them and maybe a way to see how it will go down the lane)....

#3. off the top of my head=
A nice bowling game area when the members are bored so that to keep them logged in ( weekly high scores and maybe a tourney someday

Alot of work I bet but you asked

Ok now we are talking. Great suggestions

How about a personal feedback rating for everyone. +1 for a good deal and -1 for a bad deal. It would be right next to their name for everyone to see. It would promote trades and also promote traffic to the site because bowlers would know that there are trusted sellers on here.

Great idea, kind of like a thing called Itrader. It does what you are saying

Maybe what clubs people belong to could be there. 300/800 club, Track Legion, Brunswick Nation, Fellowship of the saws, coaching certifcations level, PBA member, etc...

I've been trying to find a certain post that a certain member posted. I clicked on the members name but there was no way to see any of their posts. Other forums have a way to access all of people's post's from profile page. That would make finding things a lot easier.
