Feedback, User Wish List/Requests
We're in the process of redesigning theunpaved™ Interact and main JJUSA sites... what changes and additions would you like to see?
Comment here or in this Feedback, User Wish List/Request forum (also under "Talk" in the main menu above) and let us know!
Ideas wanted! Members, enter your suggestions for site changes here. Drop a note here, comment on other member ideas. Note entries marked "This topic has been moved" are previous suggestions that have already been completed and moved to our Site News forum.
Don't know if I'm in the right part of the website but...I forgot to request in the comment section of the jamboree survey. Consider (1)portable potty or pit toilet on each trailhead for women attendees, possibly at designated lunch site, or at beginning/end of trails.
87YJ says Simply the Layout
A suggestion I have for this site is to use common terms and simplify the top level layout.
Call the forums exactly that. 'Talk' doesn't make as much sense to me. I believe 'POST' is what most others would refer to as you Blog.
The trips, rides & videos section (and blog too) really seem to fall under what I would call 'my Jeep Jamboree'.
I'd like to use the site more, but each time I come here, I get frustrated due to the complicated layout and lack of consistency when navigating around.

How about a link to view previous months/years Photo Contest Winners?
I can understand resetting the photos every year due to space on the page but a link to previous months/years would be nice to view past winners.
We might create a new "status" content type to expand and allow members to create individual entries into the system, so it might say something like the following on our "What's New?" page:
MEMBERNAME is WHATEVERYOUTYPE
Add a "current" modifications section to each member MyRides so we can list additional/custom mods not available in the standard drop-downs... right now members can indicate standard mods, like skid plates and lockers, but have to enter in additional mods in the general "description" field (would be nice to have its own dedicated field).
Add a "future" or "planned" modifications/upgrades section to each member MyRides so we can list what gear or mods we're thinking of adding to our Jeeps next.
While a required field for trips, the list is incomplete. There were no Black Hills events, which I attended in 2006 (the 16th) as well as the Iron Range Jamboree in Minnesota, September of 2003.
The pics upload is a little weird, I tried using snapfish, but it doesn't seem to work. Also, some of the HTML formats are incorrect -- they overlap and/or scrunch some of the other pictures/words on the screens.
Overall a neat idea, but still a bit sticky.
A few years ago we taped some personal interviews with Mark A. Smith when we visited him and his family out in CA; we've got the footage captured, just need to edit and post... probably have updated this fall.
