If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can vote on it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

  1. Get rid of the fixed header! it's HUGE and takes up so much space when I scroll

    I want to read the content. Not the header. It's too big to be fixed to the top. It blocks too much of the articles.

      • Why is the Technology Section using Microsoft's failed Metro UI styling?

        Every once in a while, I glance at this page and leave immediately. I used to read it all of the time, but I don't have the patience to scroll thru this mess.

        This Metro UI style hammered Windows 8 adoption. Why would you use this style knowing it's no good. With a large monitor, I marginally hate it, but on a smartphone, my disdain is off the scale!

        Please bring back regular headlines.

        • Give us a text size option! It's too small!

          Text is NOT resizable! And, it's too small to read unless you hold your eyeball up to the screen or squint.

              • Yahoo advertisement between Pogue videos

                This was my first time tuning in to Pogue's Video's. I never met a Pogue Video I didn't like.

                After the first video, there was a loud Yahoo! scream that required me to turn down the volume.

                By that time, I had already realized the controls on the video are extremely slow to react, so if I turn down the audio for the Yahoo! advertisement, then half the next video will finish before I can turn the audio back up. My workaround was to leave the volume down.

                I would like to suggest reducing the volume of the adorable Yahoo!…

                  • Don't make the black "Suggestions?" box pop up!

                    Don't force the black "Suggestions?" box to show up in the corner every time we scroll up on a page. Just stick it to the bottom of the page and let us choose to see and/or click it. Making me see it pop up every time I scroll is what makes me think about what suggestions I have, and I realize they're often quite negative. Let us choose to see the admin only if we want to.

                    • STOP MAKING VIDEOS AUTO PLAY!!!!!!!!

                      I watch a movie on one screen while I browse on other and nothing has me close a tab quicker than sound playing from my browser. And since Yahoo refuses to accept complaints I'll likely have to just stop visiting Yahoo. I doubt that is what Yahoo wants (to lose people that have been visiting since 1997) but it is obvious to me that Yahoo is clueless and is likely better off if just left to die a quick death. My cat would make a better CEO for Yahoo than the last three or four they have thrown money away…

                        • Place a block at the top like you do for delete, spam, etc. Too many crapy emails everyday.

                          Why does one have to go through such a hassle to block dozens of unwanted emails. I get dozens from weirdo sites like make your ***** bigger or solicitations for loans, medicines and a lot of other junk that I don't want. It should be easy to put a permanent BLOCK at the same area as move, delete, spam, etc. Thanks!!!!!!

                          • Pogue etc are not inexpensive. Why is Tech at the bottom of the listings?

                            Move Tech higher up in the index from the bottom to near the top

                                    • I know ads are revenue but too many ads result in dimimishing returns. Your pages are filled with a very annoyimg clutter of ads.

                                      I realize ads means more revenue to yahoo, but too many means they get to be annoying and result in diminishing returns for the company that is paying for those ads. Between the popups and clutter of ads they overpower the articles. In addition the reader cannot comment on an article without registering for that particular source. You started this relatively recent. I do not wish to have my email address broadcast to several news sources. This results in more spam.

                                          This happens all the time.. Yahoo has an awesome story with vids or pics I want to see... So I click on it and BAM!! video never loads and pics never show up. I'm officially removing Yahoo.com as my homepage.
