Make Search button More apparent

Like the subject said, make the Search button more apparent.

Locate the search right below 'site home page" and 'member main Page." Make it in Big Bold words.

It's more convient and much more easily noticaeble. This change will hopefully allow for people to actually Notice the "search" button and do a search before they make another thread.

I know it's more work, but hopefully it should help to ease things for Hasty newb's. Haste makes for careless mistakes, like posting a thread when one has already been created.

Thanks for reading.

How about we just smack every user upside the head until he/she realized that he'she is a dolt for not bothering to read their member page?

I like this idea more.

Can't say I disagree with that, it has some sound wisdom. But like it or not, more and more newbs will be posting asked questions and you can flame them all but that'll just end up giving the Org a bad impression and it dosn't help the newbs at all.

It would be great if all the people who come here are patient and perceptive but most aren't, so it's best to Make sure they notice that they can and should search for a thread before posting one.

I think it's fine, because the only option would be to make it larger and then it would stand out far too much and look really awkward amongst the other buttons. Then we haev to enlarge them and the problem starts al over again.

No need to remove or resize the current search button, just find a handy spot on the front page, and put up a button that says "Get Videos Here", and link it to the search page, just like the search button.

That will help the stupids a little.
