We're aiming to "freshen up" the look of robingibb.com as well as reorganise content a bit, by early/mid-december. Do let us know what you like/dislike, and what (new/more) content/type of content you'd like to see added. We can't promise to take all ideas/suggestions into account, but we may be able to pick up at least some of the ideas!

Of course, I love it here, the only thing missing is Robin  . Wouldn't it send us to the moon  should he become more involved  !?! If Robin were to answer and surprise us all  , one of our questions, or, upload a picture from his phone!?! Even if he corrected some misinformation or elaborated more on anything from the past or on an upcoming event!?! Then all of our hearts would be on fire  .... Whaddya think  !?!

That's right, a little more Robin involvement would be much welcomed, maybe some news about new music and upcoming projects. I'd also like to see the site become a little more Bee Gees-orientated. Perhaps with some photos of Maurice, Robin and Barry together here and there outside of the History section.

More Robin involvement for sure!  I faithfully stalk the "images from Robin's phone" area. . . and would love to see questions answered in the questions section.  I absolutely *love* this site, and hearing from Robin regularly would be the ultimate!  I would like to hear about concerts from Robin's perspective, also. Pretty much I'd like to hear anything and everything. I LOVED the clips where Robin was talking politics. Video clips of Robin's thoughts on any subject would be quite welcomed. Thank you so much for this lovely place to share our love of the Gibbs and make friends from around the world! Bless xoxoxoxo  PS Pictures. . .we get quite a few and they are so appreciated! But we're greedy LOL! There can never be enough photos of Robin!

I absolutely *love* this site, and hearing from Robin regularly would be the ultimate! These could be my very words.  I generally am content with the contents of the site, with a little more input from Robin himself it would be just perfect. As to the look however I would like to make a suggestion. There has been much complaint that the white on black is so hard to read. Of course we can enlarge, but then the sides are cut off, and scrolling back and forth is not really comfortable. From the examples we have seen the new pictures are supposed to be black and white (which I love, by the way  ), I could imagine some lighter shade of grey (at least in the text parts) would go well with them and would be more eye-friendly.

As everyone above has mentioned I would be happy to see Robin's presence a little more too...I always enjoy his blog when there is an addition and look forward to the messages for holidays etc...but it would be nice to have an unexpected message or video, or the Q & A section become a regular feature. Also, I don't know if this is workable but is it possible that a music loop of Robin/Bee Gees songs could be continuously playing on the site? I think it would be nice to click on home and hear music!! You know maybe someone visiting the site will hear a song they do not recognize and it will encourage them to go in search of the song!!!  But I don't know if perhaps that would interfere with the working of the audio and video already available on the site. Thanks for listening!!

Great ideas  ! Thinking it might be helpful to have a refresher course regarding Robin's Corner, for example, on how To Submit A Question To Robin  .

Thanks for the opportunity to provide feedback.
First of all I'd like to see the past newsletters available for logged-on members, or perhaps an easy way to access them (I still haven't received anything).
More photos would be great.
What does lovely Robin want to read about from his lovely fans?

The chatroom is still there, cuteRobin, but for a long time I couldn't re-register to Barry's site. I took part in two chats, it was hectic, you just could not follow what was happening. Decided not to see it any more  I don't know if a new chat was since that time.

We all agree  , more of his  presence in whatever capacity most suitable to Robin  .

Ann (& Robin), It looks like the fans that check the website are looking for a more personal side of Robin, so any aspect of his past, present, or hopes for the future would be appreciated. Personally, I'd be interested in seeing any poetry or prose, what books he recommends, visual arts by him or that he appreciates, photos, stories- even "seemingly insignificant" memories are fun to read, etc. Many hugs to you and Robin. http://wwu.confidentialresume.com/Cecka_EfolioExample/

The History section of the website has always been a great asset in my opinion with the photos, videos, etc from the past to the present. Always love to see more and new photos. Perhaps Robin could share some of the more candid ones taken while working in the studio either alone or with Barry and Maurice? Love to see them creating together!!Any awards or moments that may have had some extra special meaning or remembrance?  Thank you!

Wonderful example, Gabriele from the source  . A short diary with whatever happens to be going on, or on his mind at the time  ! Would love to hear more about Robin's historical interests, and, or, jaunts  ! The Sky News Reviews are great. I find Robin's input valuable as it pertains to current events.

As a footnote  . There is no doubt, should Robin participate, when his participation becomes known, there will be even more participants  .
