   | New graphics! *drool* Seems that someone has changed that reply and new topic button. And sticky topic image too..
 Great job, those look pretty cool!
   Who made those?
 Edit: Hmmm, I thought I saw new reply button too. Oh, well..

   | Re: New graphics! *drool* /me scratches his head.
 
 Whoops.  I only meant to upload a new "sticky topic" image...those "Post Topic" and "Post Poll" buttons are actually fairly old, made by eK back in the day...but he never finished making a "Post Reply" button so they were never uploaded...
 
 /me runs away from the mess he's made.

 | Re: New graphics! *drool* The banner graphic is cool. However, it is so tall that you have to scroll in order to see the list of forums, which is Not A So Good Thing. Perhaps we should try to change its shape a little, and perhaps rearrange the layout of the announcement area.

 | suggestion If the logo is moved down and aligned to the left of the announcement texts then it can keep its dimensions.
 
 If you add a background and apply an affect like this then it will be better imo.

 I distorted the image to the text, then applied a bevel and a color overlay of soft-light.

 | bevel make your time Eh? I wasn't suggesting we use that text, lol; oh my, it was just for the example.
   
 And the only thing I wanted to say with that example is that maybe the text should be a part of the image; I.E. like an
  is a part of a message. Having a bevel and distortion 'or whatever' is one of the many ways (if not weaker ways) to achieve this. |

 Oh, and what about colours? I like the current colours, but just thought that small color changing could be neat someday.
  I suggest blue stuff.

 It won't look significantly different, half the height, double the width, same picture, same style of text.

 All things considered, the new changes (in progress) look great.

 | Re: Er... Yah, I agree about the gold link text, so I darkened it. Think this is enough? I want it to still look goldish.
 
 This design is patterned after the one I was doing for cc314 a long time ago, based on Keen's helmet.
 
 I still have some images to change, I may do those today, but if not, I may not take care of them for as much as a week (going home for fall break, yay!).
 
 Sure feels different in here now, eh?

 | the way 'it was' and 'is' It feels nicer now, like we're a more complete community. The old look had a feel of innocence to it, and over time many good memories. This new look is more professional, and modern, which helps bring out the fact that we're a matured community.
 
 With Christmas coming around the golden links help add to the mood; right now is the first time this year I've felt the season coming.

 | Re: New graphics! *drool* ...and with that, we finally say goodbye to the old graphics scheme designed in May 2000 by Jonathan Hinkle.
 
 May the new design bring us as much joy, rapture and prosperity as the old one.
