Title: Drop down link for NGF Advertisers
Post by: Mr Sprue on April 15, 2017, 09:00:53 AM
There maybe one here but I couldn't find it!

To be fair I haven't really tried that hard looking but then again I shouldn't need to! So just a polite suggestion, how about NGF iT place a link in the header before or after 'N'porium' for those who pay to advertise on the forum? Who know's it might even attract new advertisers.

Just my thoughts guys....you do a great job! :thumbsup:

All the best
Dave

There should be one in the FAQ section?

Please don't take this the wrong way, but that's not the place I would navigate to looking for an advertiser.

Anyway it was just a polite suggestion, that's the thing with websites they have to be constructed to be user friendly for lazy people!  ::)

No problem, as suggestions are always welcome.  :)

There are some 'advertise here' buttons under a couple of the adverts as well.  However, maybe I should make a more prominent button as you suggest on the main Menu.

Thanks mate. :thumbsup:

No problem Chris, glad you appreciate my suggestion.


Believe it or not I had a senior moment and couldn't remember Adam's user name as I was trying to find his website electrarailwaygraphics.co.uk!  :dunce:

That's when the light bulb flashed in my head thinking wouldn't be easier to just simply have a menu to click on to find the NGF trade sites. Us older dudes sometimes have frequent memory crashes and need a bit of simple visual reference to help with our navigation!   ::)

Ooooooh!  You mean current advertisers, not wanting to advertise. :uneasy: ;D  Read that in the wrong way!!!!

There isn't currently a list, as it changes fairly often.  However, what if you go to www.NGauge.Online (http://www.ngauge.online) as that has a lot of links (and cost me a fair bit to set up)!

Hi Chris, While this question isn't about advertisers directly, well i suppose it is in one way. The NGF shop link i put up i can't find now, it keeps coming up with the site on here, which unfortunately does not show any products. I would to buy some more gear, especially another polo shirt and some more clothing gear. Can you not put the link i put up as a sticky please.   :thumbsup:

Rod.

It's on the 'NGF Links' now.  Thanks for the bump!

So why not have a link placed on the header for NGO then?  Especially as its cost you money it would put it to good use.

Until you pointed that page out I didn't know it existed!  :-[

Will do Mr Sprue!  :)  I thought the large advert at the bottom of the forum was enough, but perhaps you use an Ad blocker?
