Simple Changes With Radical Results
<center>***The funny thing about focus, it shuts down other avenues of thought.***</center>

With everything coming up over the last few days I have picked out a few and wanted to present some thoughts on the problems, and offer my solutions.

### The Site Isn't *Inviting*
As it stands right now, it's kind of like going to the library. There's something you gotta get from it, but shhhhhh.

The posts are looking better all the time, but it's being delivered in a sterile environment. It's ***feels*** impersonal.... devoid.

I think the most effective changes we can make at this point, as eyes start to swivel our way, are to the interface.

Unless your going to just tell me my settings are whack and noone else sees it like this, let's use the real estate here!

Unfortunately I don't design (yet), but move the tags or the post order or ***something*** down the left side in banner categories.
### In The Post
The post themselves look great, I am really seeing a lot of great stuff. Let's ***invite*** people to let them know. If we make it simple then it's more likely to happen.
With the slider introduced at 100SP, ***let's make it a badge!***

<center>***Simplified Comfortable Voting.***</center> 
<center>***100SP Achievement***</center>
It invites participation. We don't need every option from 1-100, make half stars a thing and it's pretty much a 1-10 vote. 

Have the comment window open and waiting for them, and when they hit post, have it go back to their feed.

It makes it easy to respond which means a lot to most. Plus,It becomes a neat new *power* your account gained.
### Of Course I'm Gonna Mention TheGame
We lost @andrarchy today, some evil bastard took him from us ***LIVE*** on a pre-recorded YouTube clip. I kinda feel that we all need to step up a touch, in honor. 

Oh, not ***find*** him or anything (not yet), just have a little fun ;).
### Here Is My Challenge
I have already thought about these front end achievements a little. We have the first one with the voting change... 
our 500SP achievement, our silhouette changes to our steemd robot avatar.

What do you think could come after that? I want to hear from you... I want your ideas. More than that, I want your skills and expertise!

Wether you write up your ideas, make a mock up display or are willing and ***able*** to be a part of helping with code needed for implementation. I suggest this last as our developers are busy with the foundation, maybe this is something we can take on, ***and fund***, ourselves.

All SBD rewards from this post will be used in the pursuit of this, and none for @andrarchy's ransom, if there is one. Wether it is used to reward the ideas or pay for development of the fruit of those ideas....
***Let me know that to ;)***


Roll The Credits!:

Oh hell, if you want to try and help save @andrarchy's life or whatever you can support the guy who has him I guess.
