What Do You Want Added To The BYC Forum & Site?

[ozark hen]

I love the addition of custom pages, Rob. Good job. I would love a gardening section but you do realize it may take on a life of it's own?????

Gardening would be good. A seed exchange would be great. Not just for harvested seeds, but for the small gardeners to get leftover seeds from people buying the big packs of seeds. Does that make sense?

Love the idea of the seed exchange - I visited a site yesterday that you had to pay to be a member for a free seed/seedling exchange!

Nifty,

Thanks very much for the Custom pages titles... that really helps since now folks can go straight to the pages based on the titles.

I was wondering - is there a "Spell-Check" feature on this site. I usually proof read my message before posting, but I sometimes miss something and then feel stupid for not catching my spelling errors.

If there is a "Spell Check" feature on this site where is it? If there is not one, would that be something that could be added in the future???

Thanks,
Dana

Currently there is no spell check built in, but we may add this in the future. All the browsers have spelling plugins. I use "iespell" or the spell checker in Google's toolbar. Both work really well for IE. Firefox also has spell checking plugins.

I also think a seed exchange and gardening section would be nice. It seems raising chickens and gardening (organic for me) go hand in hand.

Alright Nifty,
I think it might be necessary to have a duck or other poultry breeds page on the main website.
It is a chicken website but it just might be interesting.
Also, I would like to have more chicken breeds too.
Thank you for all the stuff you do around here.
Love the site!
Joe
P.S. This isn't to much is it?

Hi Joe, the moderators work really hard.... (hahaha... just kidding <inside joke related to another thread<)

Seriously though, that is a great idea. I think it would be great to have a sub section on the main www.BackYardChickens.com site for ducks and other poultry. The only rub... we need help creating content... if only there way a way to allow other people to help create these pages / content...
