OK - I'll admit right up front, I'm no big fan of Wiki - anything. Just don't care for the "anyone can edit" format.

So I have prejudice already...BUT do we really need to have 1/4 of the forum landing page showing the top 5 Wiki editors?

Comeon - move it to the bottom of the screen so's we don't have to scroll to get to what we're on the forum for...to participate in the forum.

thank you it is getting on my nerves

I'm for moving it, too...

Me too!!!!

Thanks for the input, it's a new banner I'm trying out. "Recognition" is a known positive wikipattern, so my thinking is that a "Top 5" banner would be a good way to recognize the contributions of the top wiki guys.

I can condense it a little, maybe make the font size smaller and use less whitespace. How about that as a compromise?

Or, if you guys have specific constructive criticism (ie: a suggestion for a new banner), let me hear it, and we'll go from there.

Maybe it's the white Jon,Too much white.It kind of blind's you at first....

Jon - Thanks for responding to my critique!

Really its the amount of screen real-estate it takes up.

And I'll even do you 1 better than giving you and idea - here's the HTML code that rendered this image....

The WIKI is a condenced version of the HR Bullitin Board.
Instead of having to seach throught pages of threads the info is there.

Just one of the things that makes HR.com #1

AND..

Just like any post on the HR BB don't beleive everything you read.

WOW just like Present Day America one person complains change the whole operation.

Nuthing personal just my Two Cents worth.

Thanks. I've condensed it by stripping two line breaks. Should be good to go now.
