How would you prefer to see SOTD posts?

Post by yoyology »

I know there's been some discussion of this within the SOTD posts themselves, but I thought I'd bring it out into a separate thread.

My vote would be for however anyone generous enough with their time to participate chooses to participate.

It's valuable stuff for newbies to see what people regularly use. It's in its own forum, so if one chooses to avoid it they can, if they have a slow link or something. The way it is now there's enough text and enough photos to satisfy anyone.

I agree.

I used to avoid looking at the SOTD forum, so as not to be too influenced by all of the various products everyone else had that I did not. I have jumped around using different razors, blade types, creams etc. anyway. Just being a member here, one gets enough influence to cause A.D.s. Now, I read though SOTD with interest. Eventually I plan on contributing.

I enjoy both. The text is great for seeing the combinations other guys are using. The photos can be fun and, sometimes, truly gorgeous.

I say leave it as it is. If you don’t like text, scroll down, and if you don’t like photos, err, scroll down.

If you don't like graphics you could always use the Lynx browser.

There's no reason to change the format.
