Yes, everything is shaping up really good! :-)

I wonder how it would look if the avatars and the white/red checkers and the "cult member" text would all be aligned to the left instead of centered?

Now it's beginning to look quite "fresh". Keep it up! :-)

WoW !

Take off for a few days and boom, when you get back someone moved the whole house around.  Then you venture out on the wire and POW, your favorite Amiga site got a face lift.  Way cool !   :-D

Looks 100 times better than it did.  Bravo !

That's two threads that we can annoy you with now :-P

Follow this checklist:

1) brain in gear
2) open mouth (well, start typing really)

I am starting to wonder if all of this is a joke. I've been a regular reader (every day) of amiga.org for years. Now I registered just to say something. The old look was professional, while the new one looks.. well.. like something is installed and not configured at all.

Come on! The new banner is not good! Two gradients, an icon with a bevel filter and a stroked white font? And you're all going "Whohoo! Much better". What's the world coming to? Why don't you just use the old banner?

(old banner) (http://messe.think42.com/logo_aorg.jpg)

Sorry for any offence caused, I don't mean to troll. I guess it's because I was so happy with the site's look before, and now it looks like.. this.

I think the News page is much improved since the upgrade.

However, I used to just go to the home page and see the news stories and the recent posts. Now, however, the news items on the home page often do not contain one complete sentence. That's just not enough to decide to read more or not. So now I have to go to the news page and then go to the home page for the recent posts.

Improvements are definately being made, but for my needs use of the site is harder than before the upgrade.

The .org itself is much better, the design is still undergoind major changes aFAIK.
