The Main Site?
« on: April 02, 2004, 10:41:52 AM »
Just out of idol curiosity, is the main site going to stay as is, or are you guys planning on making it look pretty?  Just wondering, don't take this the wrong way (I know it's new and all) it just looks a little boring ^_^  eep!  ::hides from ugly glares::

It will be changed. We don't like it looking like something you'd find on Brinkster either. :)

Ah... speaking of the main site:
I might suffer from prolonged blindness, but I can't find a link to the main site from the boards.
If there really is none, I'd officially suggest to create one. :D

The News Box, which if you're using the default profile is in the upper-right corner, will have a link to the home page, uh, half the time. We're working on the what-should-point-where issues.

As for the front page, in a matter of days it should be up and running a proper portal, with individual pages for each mod and so forth. That's why it's called "exceedingly temporary." I had wanted to have the portal up for the launch, but decided to go with the placeholder because it was faster.

There's a reason I work in words rather than design.

True, and be grateful that the website doesn't backfire on the freeway.  :)

Well, I know it isn't much, but if you need anyone for graphic editing for banners or whatever; ask okie?  I can't really do anything else, but I'm pretty good with graphics editing.  I never said simple wasn't bad, but I'll say it again, I was just curious  :D

I love the name for the new general revelry - I think he deserved a demotion as well. I will agree that we need more color, maybe some pastels or YELLOW
