Halfbakery with visualised memos | |
I have just opened an account on this magnificent website,
and enjoyed it immensely. Think it's amazing how we could
take advantage of the power of collective intelligence here!
Just wanted to make a small suggestion which might help us
to communicate more effectively. While glancing at some
of
the ideas here, I thought I could have understood some of
them much easier had they had some visualised images with
them.
For example, if you were to explain your new idea of a
coffee mug, then it would be easier to get your point across
by uploading some of your drawings as well!
If adding this function does not require additional
investment into this website maintenance, then think it's
worth we do it.
The functionality exists; just doesn't get used frequently.

how long have you been lurking [junk]? |

As per [swimswim], it has/can be done, but I think linking to an external image-host works better. Keeps the hb 'tidier' too. |
|
| |
I've often thought it would be nice if there were a
small window (say, no larger than the one I'm
typing this anno in) to which a simple image could
be uploaded by the poster of the idea. |
|
| |
Against: more clutter (and a less pleasingly
uniform appearance) for the site. |
|
| |
For: not reliant on HB Illustrators to interpret
ones idea; sketch visible on the page alongside
the text; maybe more stable than a link to an
external site. |
|

On balance, [ ]. But welcome, [junkwhinger] |
