Billyonaire: The Modes should create a paid VIP section.

kramer:

I would say naijaryders was one of them... When I joined ages ago I just felt out of place, it was as if everyone already knew themselves and I was just famzin

Afam4eva:
[size=13pt]I think i suggested this a while back. Other forums have something similar.[/size]

onegig:

Also Seun. Maybe on weekends you can sell the background image space for some more money. There's nothing stopping you from monetizing the site to its fullest.

It was also like that with Nairaland at some point but because the membership has quadrupled, new members don't readlly find it difficult. But there was never a paid section on naijaryders, was there?[/size]

kennytidistar:

nigerians can lie, since you are mobile and you cant reallly say anything for now, how do you manage to say this?

Seun: @onegig: We could have limited the content width earlier, but it didn't look right when we tried it with the former white background. The huge white margins on the left and right were just too distracting. The new background seems to have solved that problem.

@wazobia_for_u: It won't. Making Nairaland load fast on all devices and on all networks is one of our top priorities.

Red-Light:
@seun

i think u should also add sumting like (flash like).. I dnt knw how to put that.... I mean when u like a post, the page will have to reload b4 the like is visible.. which gulp more bandwiths especially on pages pictures

U know when u click "like" on facebook its visible instantly and the page wnt have to reload thereby saving peoples bandwith...

Keep up the good work bro

AVWENAGHA: 1st

adaobi123: can we have a quote notification please seun ?

Afam4eva:
[size=14pt]It's made possible by a AJAX(Asynchronous Javascript and XML). The only problem is that it won't work on systems that don't have javascript enabled.[/size]

Red-Light:
thanks 4 dat...

but most new browsers support javascript... I dnt even think there is any browser that doesnt support it.....So i dnt think few people or tiny groups using internet explorer 1 should discourage majority from having sumtin like that .... BTW what do u think of that idea?

adaobi123: can we have a quote notification please seun ?

onegig:
Anyways i like the new slic design and just wish many more better things to follow. Like a chat app and other things that makes it a full community.

We can even have groups or stuff in here.

Lets go on and challenge other social networks. Nothing stops Nairaland from being better than fb and reddit.

What do you think guys.?

yawa-ti-de:
Kudos to whoever came up with this decision!

Afam4eva:
It's a great idea as it will not eat up unnecessary bandwidth both for Nairaland for those that are using limited bandwidth space. But like i said, javascript is not enabled in a lot of systems. It's not that it's not there but it's not enabled and some people are clueless on how to enable it. I think Seun is just trying as much as possible to make Nairaland easy to use for everyone no matter how small the demography is.

dont8:
Simply type your user-name in the local search engine, you'll see the people that quote you, cheers.

onegig:
Yeah.. Good observation.

The old style was kinda too wide in terms of the content area... If you used a system with a wider screen you would have to be staring at long lines of text but this makes it much more readable.

Also Seun. Maybe on weekends you can sell the background image space for some more money. There's nothing stopping you from monetizing the site to its fullest.
