Woah! That’s very thorough! Thanks for taking the time to post up your suggestions. I’ll go over them with Grant at some point so we can get an idea of the things we’ll change, and how we’ll change them. I have a couple of responses for a few of your points straight away though:

The buttons on the left are ment to obscure the line.

I agree – the climb creation process needs streamlining, so we’re going to be looking at that soon.

You can actually edit others climbs (view the climb, then click the edit tab on the top-right) – though this probably needs making clearer.

Thanks for your feedback. If you have any more, it’d be greatfully received.

Matt

when you scroll over a number on the map allow it to create a pop up window of statics of the area, like a graph of the area’s quantity of climbs and their difficulty

when you scroll over buttons on the left the faded grey vertical line disapears,

there is no way to create multiple climbs in one area, I would suggest a format that once you fill the information of one climb it automatically provides the blank space for the next climb

as far as converting grades that is way to complex, things need to be stupidly simple

aesthetically I would suggest reducing how many sharp corners there, round the edges of teh boxes to visually be less jarring on the web site.

and something is to complex in the climb posting process, perhaps think about the order of interaction. for instance clicking location with the mouse and then selecting a grade with the mouse and then typing details, people would only have to transition from the mouse to keyboard once allowing them an easier time posting more climbs

and providing a way to edit each post by others, eg. adding a photo or editing the grade.

sorry I’m so opinionated
