I looked around in the "General Discussion" thread for a place to make a formal request and didn't see one and I thought this might be misplaced or disruptive in there so I am posting here.

Mods: Could you please consider making the houseguest photos at the top of the "General Discussion" thread smaller so that the actual threads are more visible? Or maybe even put the pictures at the bottom? They look really nice and someone did a beautiful job, but now that things are going strong I am more interested in what is being posted than seeing the pictures. It sure would make browsing around easier. Thanks for your consideration.

I have a different request regarding the houseguest photos. I am trying to watch this season by the television only (ie, not getting information leaked to me by this website before it appears on television). I am very careful about the threads that I choose to view, but I logged on just now and the first thing I saw was the houseguest pictures and who the two nominees were for this week (which I should have found out tonight on the show).

Shoot! I was really looking forward to watching the show and speculating about who might be nominated, but now I already know. I'll still watch the show, but it takes much of the fun out of it.

Could we please try to leave off the "extra" information from the houseguest photos until they are displayed on TV?

I think that we have shrunk the HG's pictures since your post Bigd.

Honestly Padivius, it is virtually impossible to go anywhere in the Big Brother area without being spoiled by what is happening on the live feeds. For example, the two nominees were mentioned in one of the thread titles.

Because of the live feeds and virtually everyone discussing the live feeds we have decided that there are no spoilers for Big Brother. That everything currently happening on the live feeds can be posted. This has been our policy for many years now. It is absolutely impossible to control otherwise.

My suggestion would be to stay out of the Big Brother area. Sorry we don't have a better solution for you but there are very few members who just watch the TV show and are not interested in what is happening on the live feeds.

Hi mods

I started a threah called TV Hall of Fame but what I meant to say was TV Hall of SHAME.

If possible you please change it.

Thank you}

How do I start a thread in BB general discussion? There is no thread starter link and no topics alike to mine.

Ambi, the start new thread link is alive and functioning. You have to scroll to the bottom of the page to see it. That's to encourage you to read all the thread titles to be sure there is not a thread for that subject already.

There is no start new thread link on my BB general discussion page. There is just a picture of a hand instructing us to check currant topics before starting a new thread- nothing else.

We believe that there is. It is in fine print above and just to the right of the hand.

I asked this is the regular "Q's to Mods" thread on the other side of the board, but maybe it'll get noticed here, too?

Any reason why the archive links in the BB area go backwards from the archive links in the rest of the Clubhouse? (ie: The archive links here in BB go from newest to oldest, everywhere else on the board goes oldest to newest.) Very confusing for someone who doesn't venture into BB very often. Not asking for it to be changed, just curious if there's a reason why?

It happens sometimes for technical reasons. We'll fix it.

No need to fix it on my behalf, Jimmer. I'm always up for a challenge. I just assume the posts are coming faster than the server knows what to do with, or something like that.

LOL - Thanks Karen, but we always fix these things as soon as we realize there is a problem.

Without being technical, it has to do with the way the thread is set-up with the addition of the screen caps thread.
