11/20/07		 No, they have an ideastorm link at the top for that, not that I like it but I hate big buttons that you can accidentally click and mess up a post.
matthew2142
11/20/07		 well dont click... when yourm posting your in the text box not up top...

11/20/07		 Another option is put a home button on here as they have done with Direct2Dell.
matthew2142
11/20/07		 make the dell logo conect to dell's home page dell.com
sugarbear
11/20/07		 It does on Direct2Dell.
matthew2142
11/20/07		 ok, why not here? i know they are still working outr the bugs but come on!
jorge
11/20/07		 There's a link at the top, I think thats why. I could be wrong, the link could just be pointing to /dev/null?
jorge
11/20/07		 Opps, yea, you're right the white text for "IdeaStorm" at the top is dead text.

*** CHANGED VOTE, ITS BUSTED ***

11/20/07		 If you go to the top right on the page it shows Dell.com, and it appears to be working.

11/20/07		 The coders must be hating us by now, every line of code enters yet another round of bug fixes times 10.

You know, at this point we could probably make up the bugs in order to get them to fix other stuff, they obviously have no idea.
sugarbear
11/20/07		 I bet they check out the bugs as we find them and post.. I need some bug spray.

11/21/07		 Come now, jervis, you know by now that there aren't any real ones there.
sugarbear
11/21/07		 I suggest they hire some with our money. Dell may pay the bill, but Dell wouldn`t have any money if it weren`t for the buyers.
premcv
11/21/07		 LOL yea,sb! True.

11/21/07		 i dont see why we cant have a difent system

11/27/07		 It works fine. The code is sound too from what I can see. I don't understand the problem I suppose... Do you want that big area to take you back to the popular ideas tab? That would be the default page for ideastorm.com. Why not hit the popular idea tab.... Also the text is white, not mouseoverable or clickable because that is a status indicator of where you are. Navigation then continues with popular ideas, recent ideas etc...

My question would be why does the ideas in action tab take you to the direct2dell page?

Functionally I would say the site is fine. It achieves a goal of a simple, easy to implement location for users to provide feedback. In fact I've never seen a feedback for that is this nice. Where we can come together to talk about things.
