Remove the front page

Seriously, it does nothing at all. It links to several parts of the forums that are just as easy to find once your inside the forums. It's an annoyance, that's all.

Now an actual site with some pages filled with compiled DIY articles, technical specifications, assorted Yaris info, etc.... would be great.

Hell I'll even volunteer to build it myself if so asked.

I just have http://yarisworld.com/forums/ bookmarked, so I never see the welcome page.

However, the cars coming in from the sides effect on the welcome page doesn't work in Firefox or Chrome...

If there were naked ladies with Yarii, would we still have this discussion?

cute....but I use probably 5-10 different computers per day....


and again, it just serves NO purpose. it links to sections of the forum which the actual forum also does. i just see absolutely no purpose in it. I'm all in favor of an actual front page....but one with actual articles and reference information, not just links to the DIY forum, lol.

Just type yarisworld.com/forums into the URL bar instead of yarisworld.com.

Problem solved.



(I don't think that anyone else hates the front page...)

There's been a remarkable amount of negative feedback to his idea. I for one agree tha the title page, as a title page, is pretty useless.

I was just trying to be funny is all not negative.
The front page is exactly as it's name implies a front page. Just to give you a taste/links to what is inside

Pops is a welcome screen man you can skip it by typing /forums at the end or book mark it but why eliminate it? If it bothers you that bad pay for half of the forum and maybe bueller will take it down and who knows even make you mod.

agreed....i figured this is something that most would agree with not get a bunch of flack over.

my point is not that there shouldn't be any front page, but that if there IS one it should actually be more useful.

Really? A discussion about the front page?!! Cute

Personally, I happen to like the welcome page. Liked it even better when the 2 cars showed up, but i'm sure there is an app for that ;P
