I need everyone that has a brain and a keyboard


to help reply with some feedback for this topic thread.


We recently just updated the website infrastructure back end.


With that upgrade we lost the current customization we had setup....


With all this change I ask one simple question....


Since we are redoing the Homepage....


What would you like the homepage to look like?


Start submitting ideas and looks below....


I expect the front homepage to be something we update yearly or bi-annually.


So without further delay...please start submitting your Homepage designs and pictures!!!
 
I like Hawx's background.


Finally! Drag and drop on the forums!!!

On a slightly different note, I'm loving the new site! Mobile version is slick as hell! 
 
Looking good so far.  I'll submit any critiques as I come across them.


Do we plan on increasing the functionality of the "Themes"?


I've browsed our Gallery for the first time ever.  I didn't know we doubled as a porn site.  I suggest we make some of those galleries "Member only" if they aren't already.


When viewing the "Unread Content" page, there is no option to choose/view the last page of a multi-page thread.  You're brought to the first page.  Is this something we can add?

Increasing the number of themes limits our customization ability.


I do think having the same themes with diff color options is doable.


Here is what Jackson has so far for the Homepage rough draft....

We had it in the last one, so I'm sure we can have it in this one. Just have to figure it out.
 
Would anyone be down for me to commission Hawks to help get us another theme put together? I'm a little behind on donations so I wouldn't mins getting a couple of extra themes on the forums where I participate at primarily.


How much was this upgrade Billy/Jackson?


I think the homepage would be good to have an about us section and then basic links to stuff like TS and recruiting, what games we actively support, and our servers. A donate button on the side next to TS would be nice as well. Something modular like what Jackson has would be good so we can switch it out and update it for major games we intend to support.
 
Theme just got updated.


You should be able to pick your own colors to custom the theme for you.
 
i would have to second the ts widget on the front page. widget orientation should be relative to the center (of the screen to either side) so that when someone lands on it they can instantly see whos in ts etc. I do this frequently to see if i have someone to play with in game etc.  server links  rules etc. easy to use and loads of fun rofl. love the direction the site is heading.
 
I like the new homepage layout.


TS widget has issues on mobile for some odd reason, oh well stupid chrome mobile not auto downloading .page photos. Love the donate link.


I think a sidebar with our general server rules would still be nice. Or maybe at the bottom. An extended "about us section" would be nice since it would explain why our rules are so simple, when we were founded, our mentality, etc. I can help write one up.

We did a version with the TS iframe working, but for security reasons we took it away.  BTW i think the Banzore logo or deadskull in watermark should look good on the right side of the footer. Or you can put in that place an Iframe that shows your latest posts in Facebook, Twitter. You can also put a paypal donate button.
