| | | Well... A bit of a shocker, Buck. i'm still somewhat undecided at the moment, but it certainly is new... Not bad, but new. |

| | Love the new look Buck. The pop-down menues are great. Adn I love it that you have put a 'HOME' button at the bottom of the page. This is something that I have often longed for when navigating through all of the links. The page is crisp and clean once I was logged in. It is a beautiful and very user friendly layout. I am still having problems when I navigate off the home page and into the gameing pages, but I am sure that once these bugs are worked out, it will flow beautifully.
One thing I was wondering, perhaps it would be good to have a 'subscribe' button at the top beside the log in feature? 
And a "Home" button on every page

Not bad, but new. | For a more in-depth look at the new layout and how it will look throughout the site, check out our new Star Wars: KotOR site. The new layout has been used on every page there. |

BTW, regarding KotOR, check your mail 
I've made my call on the layout, though. I do like it. |

| | I like it because it is more simplistic then the old one.
I've always been a fan of functionality over looks |

| | The only thing I don't like is the title GameBanshee is too small in comparison with the ad on the top. The ad catches my eyes before I realised I was acrually looking at the right website.
I think You need to be noticed for more members, Buck.

| | Simplicity is good yet as Minnie stated GB logo are too small compared with the adverts. Hence the old one still better

| | | Too many layers to get to the news and no date to tell you when it was posted. Every time I want to check out a story I now have to scan the headlines, click 'MORE', wait for the next screen to load, read the snip and click the link for the full story. I liked the news being posted by the date and the snip below the headline, that way I could see at a glance if it was something fresh. Now I have to scan all the headlines to see if I can recollect having read it before.
Other than that the new layout is okay.

| | Just wanna comment on the new forums layout, nicely done. Yet GB logo on GB main site should be as big as GB forum

| | | One change that just went into effect which I don't care for is the narrowing of the horizontal borders of the forum. Messages take much longer to scroll through, as a result.

Messages take much longer to scroll through, as a result. | For those of you who don't like the fact that the forums are hard-coded at 800x600 resolution, I've went ahead and made a "FullScreen" template that you can choose in User CP -> Options that will instead make the forums fit your browser window. You'll most likely have to logout/login again and clear your browser's cache if you choose this new layout, but it should work. Let me know if you have any problems with either layout. | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Rate This Thread |  Linear Mode | |
