I would like to hear from the members if you think that the portal should be removed.

Please vote. I personally do not use and and just jump straight to the forum index and want to know if you guys do the same.

The portal does appear a bit plain right now but it is useful to find some initial posts to look at. I am links straight to the forum but I often will look at the portal just because it's easier to see the news.

The Portal is very usable and should be kept. Thank You!

I can't vote because I've never seen the portal and if there was one I would never use it because on most forums I visit I go straight to the forum posts or my post.

I vote to keep it..

Doc, why not put the portal in front page.... I dont think that would be a hassle for everyone.... atleast we will know if theres a latest news about InfoTech or other important announcements.....
Let me think

The portal is on the front page. What if I make it such that when we type in http://geekpolice.net , it links directly to the index instead of the protal, and add a button on the navigation bar for tech news which links to the portal?

The 'no's' seem to be winning.......I like the portal, maybe we could list some application freeware downloads there?

The layout/presentation of the portal needs some improvement.... that's all... it should catch the attention of the viewer....

edit: I thought the 'yes' is winning...lol :oops:

yes, the portal is useful...but i think that there should just be a NaviBar button there.....because it is kinda getting annoying coming to the website and having to click the Index button everytime...just my opinion.

I dont find it annoying or useful, but need some deco. Keep it for me.

Yeah. I think we should try that.

All apart from 7zip can be found at portableapps, so just link to them.

Ok, the portal has now been converted to a Technology News Portal. You will only be directed there by clicking the Tech News button on the navigation bar or by typing in "http://geekpolice.net/portal.htm". The link "http://geekpolice.net/" will bring you straight to the index page instead of the portal.
