I've been signing onto Bungie.net a lot from different locations, and I think it would be nice if you had the choice for the Links bar at the bottom to be defaulted to minimize.

Just a little Checkbox in prefrences. "Default Minimize Links Bar" or something like that.

I know you're going to call me lazy, but after clicking the little arrow about 1000 times it gets a little annoying. It wouldn't take that much work to do, and I'm not asking for it instantly. If they were to do it, I would expect it in maybe 2-3 months, considering the upgrading the Bungie Web team is doing now.

Comments? Opinions? Flames?

I agree, it would be nice. I hate having to close it down everytime I sign in, even though I use it. I don't think it needs to be that large.

Yes absolutely. That is definitely something we need. I hate having to click it down every time i come in. What's really bad is when I go to minimize, it hangs down from the top of my screen...never really understood why...Maybe my 28.8k dial up has something to do with it...
Anyways, this option should be included.

Well, it seems that some other people agree with me.

I like the idea, but I don't mind taking a second of my time to minimize it.

The size of the link bar at the bottom has to do with the screen resolution that you use. I used to use 800x600 with this site, but then the link bar took up about 3/4 of the page. Yes, it would be nice for it to be minimized for those who cannot change their screen resolution or choose not to. If you don't like the size of the bar and don't mine changing your resolution, change it to 1024x768 pixels and not only will the bar look smaller, but everything can be viewed a lot easier on the site.

Either defualt it to minimize, or move it to the top of the screen with the profile Nav. You could then have tabs to select which Nav you want.

It was a cold day near the southern base in Blood Gulch. Cortana and I were relaxing over a game of Go Fish, WHEN OUT OF NO WHERE 700 BANSHEES CAME FLYING IN!!! I GRABED MY SPARTAN LASER AND LET HELL REIGN DOWN UPON THEM. I HOPPED IN THE NEAREST WARTHOG AND TOLD CORTANA TO GET IN.

I have my resolution set to 1280 x 1024 and I don't have any big problem with keeping it maximized. Sure, it gets annoying, but I can live with it. What's you resolution at?

Good job reading my whole post.

I said it would be nice to have an option so it minimizes automaticaly for me when I log on. So it would defaulted to minimize in an option somewhere in my prefrences.

Pfft. 2 - 3 months? Seriously.

You need one cookie, and a tiny bit of code.

It's Bungie, they're busy. Besides when I ask politly, they tend to listen. I doubt you believe me, but I asked for the option to have your emblem as your avatar a while back, I'll see if I can find it without the search option, shouldn't be that hard...

I'm surprised some people didn't know about the little arrow. I have known about it before I was even a member.

So does mine, but that's not what I was talking about. I was talking about making an option where you could default the Tool Bar as minimized.

Yes it is Shiny!
