While I’m good with Dan’s suggestion, I don’t know how big MIND are....I feel we may be better helping smaller charities where we might have a greater impact ?
I've added a couple more themes and also changed the default currently to Chameleon. Not had chance to fully customise them all yet but wanted to make them available ASAP so we can get your feedback whilst we tweak it.
The other one I have added is Elegant which you can change the main colour of the site to absolutely anything. Theme picker is at the bottom of FG.
Let us know what you think!
I’ve changed back to the work theme as the default is a bit juddery on the iPad
I have the FG Unread Content as my home page/open page so I check it whenever I go on the Interweb.
I like the forums/posts best including non-gaming ones, political threads, music, etc. The videos can be pretty good (Waldorf Salad!😂😂) and it’s been fun meeting up with you guys.
I don’t have a single shred of interest in Instagram/FaceAche/Twatter...I presume Discord is for PC games?...Twitch has given me a few laughs in the past. Haven’t delved too deeply into the quizzes yet.
Merchandise? Possibly but it would depend on quality....we don’t need people falling out over merch...
I think you’ve done a wonderful job to date Lee and I’ve loved every minute!
Honestly, this is great feedback. I'm not saying it will stay. Its more twofold.
1) We need to keep the place looking fresh. People turn off with things look the same all the time so your eyes need to be pulled by new stuff
2) Existing members will continually read FG regardless of what is shown so its more for new people. It needs to shout out a little more as people need to understand this is an open and unique family, not just another 'forum' - cos it isn't Menu option should state 'Unread' as an option. Swipe right and you'll end up just seeing unread threads. The app is being funny atm with uploading a pic I just took of it

Thanks Lee I can see it now...can’t think why I couldn’t see it yesterday...another day older I suppose!
Running the forum is important and costs money but it's what we use as a family'home' FGFGF is important cuz it's for the family that use the home whether their newbies or old codgers. So, unless it's a 'special case/emergency' why not use 10% of each donation and put it towards running costs. If you get too much (that's good because people have been generous) put some back in the pot. Let people opt out if they prefer but it just makes it simple for donors
