Short cut from Forum to Home AM page

I wish there was a short cut on the Forum site that would take you directly back to the AM home page.

Often I jump into a forum thread from the home site and then noodle around. Then I can't simply go "back" to the home site.

Sometimes when going to the Forum, the Aural Moon website is the home page with the forum is embedded in that template and that's cool. If that happened all the time, so the recently played and AM header was ALWAYS there, that would solve the issue.

What do you think?

Well lookie there. Never mind.

No, on 2nd thought - it would still be nice to have a button or tab up top with the main tabs that go back to AM. You know, for us lazy and half blind users.

Thank you Roger. Guess I should wear my glasses when I use the site. And not my Sunglasses.

I hear you. don't beat yourself up about it, it's not the most likely spot to look.

Re: Short cut from Forum to Home AM page

Dale, I found that link only 2 months ago. I figured there had to be a better way than pressing "back". So, don't feel bad.

Re: Short cut from Forum to Home AM page

I also complained about a lack of a home link a couple years ago and then was shown the link at the bottom, so you're not the only one Dale.

Re: Short cut from Forum to Home AM page

I have the forum hardwired into my central nervous system.....

Seriously,

I have a separate icon on my desktop, as told to me by the mad Englishman Mr. Waye (just AM/forum). On my desktop and laptop I access this about 90% of the time. Most of the time I post I never hit the main page. Too much temptation to chat.

At work, though I don't have a shortcut, so I still go in through the main page. I find it easiest to look at the feature vax has in the middle of the page that shows the most recent posts. It's very helpful.

Well, you've got to get in to get out!

I've never been fond of scrolling all the way to the bottom to get to the return link. I'll look at adding a similar return to link near the top of the forum display.

Well, Rick, while I come from a city that prides itself on being open minded and supporting a community that goes both ways, I was merely trying to get back home.

So as Greg Lake sings: "Show me the way to go home. I'm tired and I want to go to bed."
