Welcome text

this is about the black text "Welcome to ETC's Online Community", not about the blue Welcome text:

would you mind making it an element that can be removed with homepage editing? even when there will be a more reasonable font size, it is (at least for me) wasted space.

  • I am not sure about allowing removing it completely, we'll need to discuss that. How about us reducing the margins of white space above and below it?
  • removing the margins and reducing text size would be a start of course, but my opinion is that you should think about users who spend a lot of time on the forum (and those are the ones modifying their homepage). and to us regulars there's so much more useful stuff i could do with the screen real estate... it's great for everybody who gets here the first time to be properly welcomed but i think there needs to be a moment when we can focus on work...
  • Your comments are valuable and duly noted.

    We have some plans for that space in the future that could change what appears in that space.

    As I said, this is something we'll need to discuss and maybe we can allow you to remove it until those changes appear later.

  • Just move your widgets to the top of the page.  If you place them above the welcome text you can actually bury all that unneeded stuff out of sight.  I reproduced those widgets I like, buried all the unwanted stuff and it's almost usable.  

    As Ueli has mentioned - this format is not conducive to actually doing work.

  • thank you patrick, helpful as always. tried moving the welcome text which doesn't work but didn't realise that other widgets will move the text. thx
