less ambiguous thread titles please!

Is it just me, or is it a little frustrating when the page is full of 'some from yesterday' or 'feedback welcome' threads?

Some of what!? Feedback on what!?

Please can people give an idea of what is in the thread? I guess there will be photos, but of what?

Maybe I'm not interested in tomatoes so I can save some time by avoiding that thread. Or perhaps I love photos of tomatoes but passed by that thread becuase it didn't tell me anything.

OK, grump over for now :P

I give your post 3 out of 10.

Please try harder

So I'm guessing "A few from yesterday" doesn't count....

Hold your mouse over the thread title. It gives the first paragraph of the content. Should stop you wasting so much time clicking uninteresting links!

no probs for me I like looking at everyone's pics, regardless of title

Maybe some clever person could come up with a title generator. I think that would solve all issues.

madgames · 14-08-2007, 9:40 AM

I agree with Gadget
I like looking at everyones pics and dont care about the title

Gizmo 76 · 14-08-2007, 9:47 AM

I try and pop into most threads, not fussed about 'Some shots from yesterday' type titles myself.

jonnypb · 14-08-2007, 10:22 AM

i don't mind the "a few from yesterday" type titles

i try to look at most threads and enjoy looking at other peoples work so that i can get ideas for future photos, help to improve my photos or provide constuctive feedback for the user

at the end of the day we're one big community and should help each other out where we can by providing info or feedback for each other

I'll just get my coat......

It also helps with searches etc though don't forget. I personally have soo little work on right now I look at all threads but it would help if the titles were a little more descriptive. I use the mouseover trick but this doesn't always work [stupid IE7].

That is a very good point, though generally I do tend to title my pictures and add a short description of where they were taken which would also be picked up.
