I'd like to do one banner for xta, if anyone cares.
You should use this update of the website to post something in the news for godsakes.

The games pages, and many of the pages it links to is mostly walls of text... Only five screenshots, not saying we should bring the old ones back, but can't we get some more new ones? People would probably be interested in seeing screenshots with a decent UI too. The media page also lacks videos...
the forum width is optimal imo, rather adjust the forum layout so it fits.

Isn't this a front page news worthy item? Where is the announcement?

Patience. Fnordia's obviously still working on it.

Ummm... our banners are missing...
THe super narrow forum width looks really really bad now.

Maybe we could get all the artists to make concept art of popular units and then we could have rotating images at the top.
So it's green plane atm, you could refresh and it's changed to a krogoth or whatever.

I feel claustrophobic in here...
I miss the old site, feels like having your home dissapear or some old friend die.

I'm not a big fan of the color scheme but that can be dealt with.
The more serious problem is that the forum is now like 6 inches wide on my 17 inch screen.
What's it, 800 width? Are we seriously deploying a fixed-width site... targeting a screen resolution which was common in the mid-1990s? What the hell?
GIVE ME MY SCREEN SPACE BACK DAMNIT!
...on the other hand this means that I could theoretically load up the Spring site on my antique 486 box (with original monitor NOW IN SVGA!) and it would display perfectly

I seem to recall the old forums being fixed 800 too.

Don't change the Board Style in your user preferences... or you'll get locked out with error messages due to missing SubSilver content
I'm sending a PM to Fnordia, hopefully my profile will get fixed

Does forum width change upon resolution? cause it's always been 800 and still is 800 here.
In general site looks nice, think it's a great improvement.
It can even keep Argh out! Pure win :D

lol, yeah... that's what I get, for messing with stuff- self-ban
Seriously, that's annoying, tbh. And at least in WinXP with FireFox, the Forum has always been this size...

Awesome. I would like to congratulate the spring community as a whole for this accomplishment. The current banners are fine, don't add any new ones, until you have a standards system in place that makes them all stylistically the same. Anyway, really good job fnordia and roflcopter.

Amazing improvement. This makes me want to spread the word. So I will.
