I meant have the reviews linked directly to the product listing page at thw webstore - they in turn could then be linked back to the appropriate product thread on the forum. (Similarly, when the catalogue is done then cross linking could occur there too). Really, I'm talking about making the whole web presence more holistic (yeah, shit word sorry) and interconnected.

I was thinking about this because of the…

...comment by nooblet333 here: http://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=21.60

And also the useful product precis comments Giles has put in the nascent catalogue.

Giles

I think Nooblet333 was referring to the TW Fall 2010 collection, which as yet, has no web presence or means to order, mainly because it does not exist yet!..G

Giles

The IH site is going to go through a radical rewrite, I have some very large techical and creative brains on iit at the moment (that of course rules me out). I think your holistic approach is really great, we'll chuck it into the mix…G

Beatle

So structure the TW board like the IH - all products - and link to the website ?

Giles

I think Hectic meant in general put some more interlinking in place. If you go to the bottom of the IH634SR page

http://www.ironheart.co.uk/html/IH634SR.html

You will now find a link to the relvant thread in the forum.

Not sure how we manage all the links as the forum is so dynamic…G

Beatle

Let's work on this when the website is done..Rome wasn't built in one day

@G - yeah much like that. The devil will be in the detail as always.

Glad to hear that a revamp is in the works, I am sure the output will be good, glad I could be a modicum of assistance.

I am good at sweeping concepts - its the clever fuckers that do the actual implementation.

Giles

Just like me. When I was in the corporate world, I had to have a dedicated person cleaning up/sorting out the carnage I left behind…G

lolz, familiar.

Beatle

I am still wondering if certain threads in News would be better served in IH Products? Threads like IHSH-14 mini-herringbone should just be moved and others like Wind Breaker should be merged. It is confusing to have information in two places. All updates on specific products should be in their specif threads. Seems much more streamlined to me.

Beatle

lando - we´re already working that…if u check it out..some old news threads have already been merged with the product threads...

I think a Japanese forum would be neat. It would be nice to see a wider view of what's going with Iron Heart stuff in Japan.

Not a bad idea to expand to a Japanese forum. Very good idea in fact. Some of them might speak English, so we could get a more international conversation going. It is a crying shame that the Russian forum is so hermetic. I mean I would love to see what these guys and gals have to contribute but my Russian is as non-existent as my Japanese. So maybe there could be an exclusively Japanese sub-forum and that would reel in some Japanese members to come and lurk over to the English speaking side. I'd love that.

I agree on the Japanese addition as well! When the Russian area first began I was translating every word of every post. I have since lost interest as there are not many pictures and translating is quite difficult as we all know.

Beatle

I don´t think that there needs to be a Japanese board..if there´s guys in Japan that wear IH and talk a little english so there´s gotta be millions…lol - they could always post in the regular threads...

Giles

There is a Japanese borad, but it is impossible for us (well, me at least) to join up, as you have to enter a load of Kanji characters as part of the security process. Haraki advertises this board on the Japanese board and we do get a lot of hits from Japan, but no-one has yest signed up - or at least I don't think that they have. G
