Just a Suggestion - Back to Top button

[Lara Krystle "Lane"]

Just a suggestion.

I don't know if its just me, but I think we should have one of those floating buttons at the side near the scroll bar that allow the page to jump "BACK TO TOP" without having to scroll up. You know kind of like the tumblr "Jump to top" button. Of course that's just one person's suggestion. What do you guys think?

I would also love something like that, but doesn't your keyboard have something like that? For my Windows laptop, if you press "Home" it brings you to the top, and if you press "Page Up" or "Page Down" it respectively goes up and down. Likewise, the "End" button will do the same, bringing the page to the bottom.

Not sure if Apples have this though.

True we do have the HOME and END Button. but most times I forget about them hahah!!! because the Home ad END button for a Mac is sometimes stupid.

Even Macs with portable-sized keyboards have the various functions of Home, End, Page Up, Page Down.  You just have to know which button to press after you hold down the Fn key!  People love talking about the Mac's GUI, but its keyboard abilities are also pretty sharp, if somewhat better hidden.

I like any web page to be as simple as possible while still able to get the job done.  The more bells and whistles you toss in, the more chances you'll end up with a fly in the ointment.  If the functions already exist on the keyboard, why replicate them on-screen as well?  I still have trouble seeing the 52cartes page for months now due to some tweak they made somewhere along the line.  I can't get to the "Older Posts" link at the bottom of the home page without it glitching out.

I didn't think one was needed since most keyboards/mouses can do the same thing, but I added it in.

You'll see it next to where page #'s are listed on the thread view.

Reading this I thought you only meant a back to top button,  next to the page numbers which are at the top I though to myself 'herp derp' then realised oh yeah there are both page numbers at the top and bottom and again thought to myself 'herp derp'
