Perhaps you saw my post on changing from scrollbars to a carrousell slider similar to this one: http://showcase.awkwardgroup.com/
The reason that scrollbars were used is to not create a huge whitespace with a lot of content on the right side while the central part being static. The scrollbar created a fixed design of it all. A carrousel slider provides a much better way to show content without having to increment the space needed. I agree the inner/frame scrollbars are a mess, and some works need to be done with the classes news_all and campaign. Previously (almost 4 months ago) I recommend using a pane system, which will allow the user to increment the size of the widget through a hide/show on the title (this was more applied to a Faq site). Making it possible to consume initially a minimum of space. However it seems many people in this group have no idea what Javascript's frameworks are, confusing them with a server-side scripting language. http://markmail.org/thread/wmx2tnusflwzzpu5 On 7/12/14, Tal Daniel <tal.re...@gmail.com> wrote: > I suggest to dropoff the scrollbars from the News & Blog posts areas, on > the Homepage, and unite these areas into one zone, that notifies about, > well, anything, whether latest news, posts, wanted volunteers, important > upcoming dates, events, etc. > > Personally, I don't think the inner/frame scrollbars help much.
