New theme and top voters page
« on: February 26, 2012, 10:01:47 am »
Hey guys,

As you will have obviously noticed, the site has had a long overdue facelift. What do you all think of it?
The theme is a modified version specific to our website. The new theme should make it much more enjoyable to navigate the website, and it adds more access to useful links such as the live map, donations and voting through the new menu bar. It also boasts a much cleaner colour scheme which should be more easy on the eyes.

If you encounter any issues with the theme, please post about it. We will try iron out any formatting issues as soon as they crop up.
Special thanks to Nick and Relkeb for assisting with images.
If you do not like the theme, you are able to to change back to the old one in your profile section, but I recommend you give the new one a chance, you might like it!

Secondly, we have added a top voters page so that you can see where you lie at the top of the votes table. You can access the page here.
Just a reminder that the top 3 voters of each month will recieve rewards for their support, so even if you slacked off this month, you can redeem yourself next. The rewards will be announced shortly :).

Cheers,
Optical

I don't mean to be negative, as I think the top bar of the website is really good, but I dislike the black and white theme. I think it makes the site look a bit sad (emotionally). As this is a gaming website, for a game, my suggestion is that the site is more colourful. Is that easy to change without having to restart?

Other than that, the new layout is great, and easier to browse with. I the way the tab you are on is highlighted, and donate and vote and in colours. Big +1 on that.

Another idea, not needed at all, is to make the bar scroll with you when you scroll down the page. IDK if that would really be useful, but it's worth a suggestion.

I don't understand why, but to me the letters in topics seem smaller and a bit harder to read o-o

besides that it looks good

style.css line 57

replace with:
Code: [Select]
body, td, th, tr {
    color: black; /* old: #666 */
    font-size: 13px; /* old: 12px */
    font-family: verdana, sans-serif;
    line-height: 135%;
    font-family: Trebuchet MS;
}

before:



after:



plskthx

edit: also, links need to highlight orange (the same dark orange that the rest of the site uses).

edit2: they highlight orange when you mouse over them, but they need to be that color orange all the time.

I like how you didn't change the layout too much, you just changed the texture.

Um just curious Optic, did you post twice or is that our first bug? :P

Otherwise, liking the new layout ALOT :D although I agree with claw a little bit.  For a gaming website I feel it needs a bit more color (say an epic picture in the background of one of our builds or something :P) or give it something that makes it more relatable to minecraft.

But either way, awesome work guys ;)

I like it, minimilistic.
  I especially like the orange sliding bar at the top when you hover over tabs.
 Good work.

Hey I think there is one little tiny thing that you can fix. The links just look like ordinary text. Please fix this if possible :)
