Put big fat obvious link on Forums to Anandtech.com

[WildHorse]

Forum users who bookmark directly to the AT forums don't see the AT Product REviews at all.

If I was an advertiser I'd be concerned about that. All those eyes visiting Anandtech, but only seeing th Forums, simply bypassing the product information area of Anandtech's website.

Today I was reading a forum post and wanted to answer it by linking to an article in AT Guides. But I didn't find any link anywherer in the Forums to take me to the AT Product info area. In order to do that I had to open a new browser window and re-enter to www.anandtech.com.

This is only a humble suggestion, made in the spirit of helpfulness, and is not a complaint.

Does the AnandTech link at the top left of every forum page not work for you?

Yes you are correct.

There is a link there.

Until this moment I never realized that large logo was a link.

So it fails the "obvious" test.

maybe it's just me.

 

[Ruptga]

It took me a while to figure that out as well

Some people have said, with benign intent, they don't realize the logo is a hyperlink.

allisolm, your ire is surprising, and opposite the intent.

Since this thread annoys you, please just erase it off the forum. No need for it to go into the forum archives.

Sorry you inferred anger where none was stated or even implied. Same with annoyance. Guess you'll just have to live with the thread entering the archives eventually.

yea i never sensed any anger or annoyance from allisolm.

anyway, before the update, the link up top was more obvious. in fact, it was very obvious. i'm surprised you just found out after being here for 4+ years.

Maybe she's just being difficult.

That being said, I'd like to see a link to the forums from somewhere in the 'my profile' pages.
