I just saw the changes you guys made to BHGL, etc. Looks good! Gives the site a fresh look, without losing the "VBgamer" feel.

Actually it's quite a bit different. Website navigation is at the top of the webpage instead of spread out into different locations. When VBGamer first started the only things that were availabl were the 5 sections at the top, which some people don't even notice because they're a bit "hidden." I've expanded the website gradually and added the different sections in the column on the right side of the page (forum, links, tutorials, articles, files). Space is getting tight when adding new features, so I've totatly redesigned the site, especially the main page. Hopefully I can get people interested in submitting some game related content.

I might be a little late on this, but oh well

IMHO the site looks great the way it is. And not everyone is going to agree on the same layout. I could care less what the layout looks like when you're done, just as long as the site delivers me some VB news and doesn't take very long to load. :)

Hey can't you make the whole thing centered? I tested here and it worked just by adding a <center> tag right after the <body> tag and a </center> right before the </body>. It looked a lot better in my opinion.

I love the new layout, good colors to use too.. Cant wait to see it applied to the rest of the site! =)

that's odd. I think it might be a firefox proble, although I use firefox and I've never experienced that with vbgamer. I have seen that happen a lot with Lucky's website, especially the forum. Hopefully the new design isn't causing any problems.

Here's mine then.
(the problem is the left column width; the grayed part I painted to preserve my information )

Wow this is really embarassing... It seems my "font size" setting in IE was randomly changed to "smallest, and I can't get it to go back. I can set it to "medium" and it works fine, but then reverts whenever I visit another page... Annoying...

PS - I won't delete my previous post. Everyone can have a good laugh at my retardedness...
Sr. Guapo Posted - Jun 25 2004 : 12:07:32 AM
Is it just me, or are all the forum fonts REALLY small... It was almost impossible to read the little box on the home page (with all the recent posts)... Don't know if this is by design or what, but
at 1024x768, it is pretty annoying. Also, it makes some of the font seem very blurry...

I like the way the site looks, especially the new animated logo.
VBBR Posted - Jun 24 2004 : 10:50:56 AM
OK then, I think I just started to like it a bit... sorrry I guess I was a little rush, misjudging before taking a better look...

I'm really sorry about that. And I agree about the need to be functional.

If my opinion matters, I like it... it is simple yet functional and looks good too.. and really that is all this site really needs to be. I like the animated logo... and I like the way the tables are set up. Short and sweet it is professional and functional.

DaBooda out...

If no one likes the new layout, then it is your own fault. I asked and no one came up with any ideas, so everyone needs to stop complaining about how the website looks. This website does not need to be pretty, it needs to be functional.

for my new YALG site I have managed, with an extremely simple CSS to center my site at all resolutions (and it's compatible with IE/Mozilla/FireFox), if you're interested I can give it :)
