New site design

[racketboy]

The site looks great, but I have one minor quip with it..the font that the page numbers are displayed in while looking at a thread is a little small and hard to read, but this could also be due to the fact that my contact prescription is a little different...I'll report back when I get new contacts lol. Everything else is VERY nice!

Actually, the page numbers should be the same in the forum...

I really like the look of the interior page, but the front page is too busy for my tastes. I can live with that but for one thing. I really, really like having the new forum posts all together on one page, as it used to be on the front. I'd very strongly prefer that over having "active topics" on the front page.

It's really nice to be able to just refresh the front page to see if there are any new topics. Active topics aren't that useful. I will have read them already when they were new, and if I was interested I'd post in them. Then I can follow up with "view my posts".

But that's just the way I used the boards. If I have to start coming directly to "view new posts", I guess I can get used to skipping the front page.

Edit: I just realized "view new posts" in the forums leads to new posts, not new topics. Is there a way I can get a list of new topics like we used to have on the front page?

I prefer the new topics on the front page too. The mock-up had both active and newest. Can we do that in this final version?

RB has a front page?

We had it that way, but realized that there was a lot of redundancy and wasted space.

Just came back to check up on things and the font is fine. It must have been some combination of old contacts, early morning, and poor lighting on my part lol. Everything looks great to me now!

the AcidTech template for the forum doesn't display the header correctly at the top of the page like it does for the GlossyBlue template. the forum looks fine but the logo and links are all kinda effed.

i like the way the site looks though.

I like the new and improved retro Racketboy site.

I agree that an android app would be amazing. I also think that the "new" posts on the front page should be like it was before with only showing new threads. Either that, or have somewhere where we could choose?

Edit: Wait, did we lose the IRC chat? Can't seem to find it anywhere.

This is about as good as wordpress gets! Matt did a wonderful job.

We officially killed off the channel on the EverywhereChat server by inviting Racket to the new one on GameSurge.
