Firstly, if this is the wrong place to post this i'm sorry :)

I have a suggestion for the homepage, a lot of us are on different timezones here, how about adding a bar at the bottom of the page that shows the time in the different timezones? I think it would help a lot, for instance people might have an easier time getting to classes and so forth.
You can see an example of what i mean on this homepage.

Hope the link work :) Just ENTER the site and look in the bottom of the main page.

Well, that was my suggestion.

Another thing is that when you sign up for the academy you MUST enter your time zone. You can't just leave it blank.

y'know
we would ask someone really smart to start a post containing all the countries with their timezones...
Then we could ask a JAC to make it into a permanent...
and we could just direct students to that post each time:)

Heh, true Fizz.. But most new Paddie's don't really know this.. Nor is there a post explaining it anywhere on the boards (Not that i've been able to find anyway) and thirdly, it would be a neat thing to put on the homepage *g*

erm ?

you know the timezone setting on your profile, so if its set up correctly, all classes & stuff are displayed in YOUR timezone.....

I personally use the world time clock trillian plugin which displays the timezones I chose.... quite handy, but once u get a feeling for it, quite useless as well.

well... yeah, that's a good idea
I also suggest we have a page that says every country, and it's GMT number
like Europa GMT +1
It could be easier for all the newbies that haven't got a clue what GMT they have:)
y'know what I mean right?:)
