Concise description:
There are so many maps, you have to scroll down so far to click the Search button.

Objective:
Simplify the Game Finder page

Steps:
Move everything at the bottom up to the top so it is all in one place, and you can just click on Search without having to scroll down....
Move the Maps to the bottom
Add a submit button to the bottom(after the other one is moved to the top)

Sample Images:
Game Finder

Just so I'm clear...all I want to do is move the maps to the bottom and the options to the top with the other options that are already present.....

Yeah - I agree - this makes for a much cleaner appearanace - and usage - Also - I suggest adding a search button above the maps - so you don't have to scroll through the maps to press the button.

Note of course - that this will also affect the Game Builder page.

These look much better then present game finder.I think that you have space to put 8 or 9 map in one line.

The amount of maps in a line is dependant on your resolution.

Yeah...i spread the window across my 2 22" LCD's at 1680x1050 and I STILL had to scroll down. It took me forever to figure out how to get a screen shot....

Who are the 3 people that want it the way it is? Why do you feel this way? Do you enjoy scrolling down?

Perhaps they didn't appreciate the biased poll.

It used to be "Current Way" and "Right Way" or something like that....

I was thinking of just taking a baby step...but maybe there should be more.....

Yeah it made sense. The poll was a little biased towards my idea.

I added a pic for what I think should happen when you click on a map. Hopefully we can keep the description etc on the Page instead of on the Map itself...just have a Legend on the map. More room for map....more room for info....yet you don't have to stare at useless info all the time if you know how to play....
