I can't explain why I like random buttons.
Maybe I hate just, looking, and picking what I like. I can't listen to anything without having shuffle on. I don't like knowing what is coming next. I would like to be able to press "Random Layout." To get a layout I haven't seen before, that I may like more than just putting in my interests in the submit button, or shuffling through the thousands of layouts. So yeah, I'd like you to consider adding that feature. Thanks. =D |

 What feature do you want?A feature to tell you what layout you've viewed and what layouts you haven't. That's all I think your getting at? |

No, a button that you can press, that will randomly generate a layout.
No, I wrote that wrong, A button that you can press, that will bring you to the page of a random layout. Just any layout out of the thousands created. |

Why though? If you want a random layout just go here and pick one:
http://www.createblog.com/layouts/ Pick a random page, also you could easily just search for a layout that contains some key word. |

Lol.
I know it sounds wierd. It's just the way I am. It's really hard to explain, I just like randomosity. Like on deviantART, I would always click the random deviantion button, because it would show me a piece of artwork I have never seen before, often things that I don't look for, and teaches me to enjoy different things. -shrugs- I'm a sucker for new ideas, I guess. Heh. |

 I can understand. I think its a bit weird of a request. Its nothing that any of us could really add though, CB4 should be coming soon maybe Jusun will think about it. (owner of site)

Hmm. That's a neat idea. :D Something that has been suggested in the past was having a "featured ____" on the front page. Though this seems to be more simpler than that and I believe the code would be easier as well.

Its a possibility, the owner I don't think has come back from his little leave. Although when he gets back on I'm positive he'll see this and reply if hes really interested

I'm not an expert on coding, but this seems easy to make.
I'm sure it won't be a bad idea either. I think its a pretty good idea for the people who prefer to click the random button at choice.

I'm all for this idea, we'll just have to get consent from the other mods.

That sounds fun.

Well, the idea seems set; we just need to wait for Ju-Sun.

Love it! I think it would be nice, not only for random's sake, but visually to click the Layouts link and have something visual as opposed to just links.

Oooh that sounds neat; we might have to wait for CB4, but if it comes sooner, then all the better.

A random button would be nice. But could you choose for it to show you a random layout from a certain section (i.e. MySpace, Website, etc.)?

This idea reminds me of wikipedia and how there is a random article link. I think it would be a neat feature to implement. And it shouldn't be just limited to a random layout. I think each section, so to speak, should have a random button. Like if you're on graphics and searching through avatars, there should be a random button for that. Even for scripts, maybe, because I for one like to go through and see if there's any random script I'd like to use.

Nobody knows but Ju-Sun, the creator of the site. Don't worry too much about it, when it does come out, all of the valid suggestions (including the Random option button) will be considered.
