    Default

    Its a nice layout (reminds me of prophecy) in general it seems clean (pitty about art.craft though)

  3. #3

    Default

    I preferred the old one.
    Can we only vote once we've reached ten posts?

    Why do you prefer the old one? This new one is totally better?

    1. This new one is not wide enough. Im running 1024*768 at work and its like a third of the page is blank.

    2. Hardware/tech is rip. It had two thirds of my posts.

    3. At first I didn't like the GNN, but now I've grown accustomed to seeing it. The news sites I've got open don't always have the news that comes up in the GNN.

    4. Post count isn't missed, but the ranks are. eg 666 evil 667 wuz evil

    5. Colour scheme needs thought(the are 60's over). The old colour scheme just worked.

    6. What's up with "Kalingingrad south africa" as a time zone?

    7.Nag logo should be on the left.

    As I think up more stuff I'll edit my post.

    Agree.
    Some things bugging me might've made me prefer the old one, but I like the upgrade to vB, has a similar feel to IPB

    I think I'm a bit between the first and second options. They need to be wider though, I'm on 1280x800 and things are really thin. Something closer to the old (current) forums would be much better. Perhaps an option to customize the width? :s

    I think its nice, but rather confusing at first...

  11. #11

    Default

    Yeah, confusing but I've grown to like it and its well, just plain awesome. Nice job Miktar, it totally pwns the older ones. IMO

    Sorry, but the FAQ is rather clear on this.

    1. This new one is not wide enough. Im running 1024*768 at work and its like a third of the page is blank.
    I've set it to be 80% of the screen width now, is that better?

    2. Hardware/tech is rip. It had two thirds of my posts.
    Sorry, but the hardware/tech section was really a waste of time, considering the local online communities that are already established.

    3. At first I didn't like the GNN, but now I've grown accustomed to seeing it. The news sites I've got open don't always have the news that comes up in the GNN.
    I'm sure that General Gaming will receive the same quality of news, if not higher quality due to the nature of the 10 post restriction before creating topics.

    4. Post count isn't missed, but the ranks are. eg 666 evil 667 wuz evil
    The ranks are a fun toy, but they're really not conducive to actual participation.

    5. Colour scheme needs thought(the are 60's over). The old colour scheme just worked.
    Ironically, my original colour scheme lacked the orange, but after a lot of debate in the office we decided it needed some brighter colours to make it look more friendly. And what's wrong the 60s? You sound so jaded...

    6. What's up with "Kalingingrad south africa" as a time zone?
    vBulletin had it like that on default install, but I've fixed it now.

    7.Nag logo should be on the left.
    Why?

    People read from left to right? I'm not sure, but most of us (including me) prefer it on the left :p

  16. #16

    Default

    Theoretically, doesn't that fact make it more worth our while to put the banner on the left first, to make sure it has proper "exposure"? :P I just made that up. Truthfully, I'm just tired of Logo On Left and Left Justified content.

    Does it really ruin it, to have the logo on the right, near the right hand?

    I wonder if people's handedness influence where they prefer logos...

    Okay, show's over. Back to heterosexuality for you.

    Default

    I think that people are whining about stuff that's not entirely important. I love the new site. I mean honestly now, this is the same old "bawwww It's not what I want" that Miktar gets pummeled with with each new forum and it- OH ****, up-beat and positive *cough*

    What I meant to say was: Wheeeee! Come on guys! Let's try to look past the superficial and aesthetic thingies and have fun! I mean, like, we're here to play games and be, like, super awesome and talk about them and stuff! The colour scheme and logo position doesn't really affect that now does it? :) you silly sausages teehee
