Make the website look better by upgrading it.

Post by AlaricusTheGreat »

I was thinking that the website should look modern and up to date. The website looks like Windows 98 with all the square buttons. Make it look like Windows 7 with more round edges and bubble buttons.

Sounds like a fair idea, but I like this site the way it is. I guess I wouldn't mind some change as long as it doesn't change too much. Why don't you make up a screenshot of what you would like it to look like, then we would all understood what you are thinking.

Cheers, JB ;)

Oh no im not saying change the layout a whole lot, just enough to make it "fresh" for lack of a better term.
For example, make the buttons look kinda like the one in this pic ---> http://blogs.technet.com/blogfiles/guil ... tton_2.png

Okay here is another example:

Look how windows looked in 98 ---> http://www.winsupersite.com/images/reviews/pro_7.gif
It kinda looks like this website.

Now take a look at Windows 7 ---> http://www.kanmandet.dk/wp-content/uplo ... ndows7.jpg

Its updated, thats pretty much what im trying to say.

The start button is still on the same old left bottom corner but its updated and it looks way better.

I'd much rather have time spent on new gameplay features than round buttons.

An excellent point.

Give that inebriated primate a banana.

This is something that lack has stated multiple times that he's working on. Hopefully we'll have a prettier website soon :)
