Stickies Links Page Help
#1
I sent Bolty a PM about 1.5 weeks ago asking if I could create a "links" page stickied in these forums which basically linked to lots of useful information all over the net for Diablo, however initially he pointed me to our Community page and asked if that wasn't enough. I convinced him most lurkers went directly to the forums and that a stickies page with all the most useful information would be best for everyone. However his suggestion about the community page got be thinking how I've never really checked it out before, so I started reading over the community pages and checking out their websites. Right away, I began feeling overwhelmed at the scope of this project, because I did not realize exactly how much useful information there was out there, not when I was so wrapped up in my own little world. Sure, I have my own useful site I visit, but this does not even touch the scope of what is out there, and all the information buried in the lounge itself... how do I find and organize all this useful information into something that makes sense with links? My initial thought was for more of a webpage style interface where you can click on a topic, it takes you to a section with other refined topics, and after choosing one of those, you can find a bunch of links to what your looking for. Here is an example of what I had been working on:
