So, I got bored at lunch, and this is what happens. Hope you like the new layout - I think the slideshow at the top looks cool (I freely admit I got the idea from Digitally Downloaded and Otaku Gaming's layout) and added a tabbed interface on the right sidebar to make it easier to find things instead of a single very long bar that never ends. Still going with light on dark - not everyone's favorite but just a style I've been using for things like my MUD and personal websites for about 15 years now. I tried going dark text on lighter background - just didn't feel like 'me'. :)
Let me know if you have any suggestions, any items that just really annoy you, some things you like. I'm toying with the idea of changing my header quite a bit. I'm definitely curious what people think. Thanks for stopping by!

» New Layout for Chalgyr's Game Room
The layout seems to pop a bit more and the slider looks great, so I'd say you got something here.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Light on dark is fine with me, I have no preference either way.
Lovin it! :D Light on dark is my preference personally :)
ReplyDeleteLove this layout. Clean and classy :)
ReplyDeleteLight on dark works well, too. Makes your site look different to plenty of other sites out there, which is really important :)
Sexy new look, man :D!

Thanks everyone - really appreciating the feedback. no doubt I'll continue to tweak a few things here and there (and would love to ditch the labels from my post previews but haven't had any luck on that front yet). :) Most posts forthcoming - as always thanks for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteLooks awesome Chalgyr! It really suits the site!
ReplyDeleteLate to the party here, but I like the look and layout with all the "stuff" over to the right. The post-preview slider thing on the main page is pretty cool too.
ReplyDeleteAwesome - no problems commenting late - I just appreciate the feedback. Overall, it's been really positive and I'm really happy with it. Thanks!
ReplyDelete*arrives late to the party
ReplyDeleteBetter late, than never...right?!
I like it, it seems streamlined. The text color/background has never been an issue...unless it's one of those weird bright yellow-ish colors (seen it on a few sites here and there), which takes my eyes forever to process.
