New design!

Saturday, 29. November 2008, 12:36:28

Zomg it's christmas soon!

Alright, the design's up. There are some bugs. For instance, friends lists and lists in general. These are from the old design and I haven't been able to swat them ... yet. But, it's better than the default design I had the previous week. What do you think?

Feel free to post bugs here whenever you encounter them.

Our Leep project report has been delivered.Preparing for exam, ill, slacking days.

I like it. It stylish and simple at the same time.

Brilliant and Classy!

Hope you win the best blog design award! (You already had my vote, now you have justified it

)

EDIT: uh, I think you have a bug here.... the second comment text is not visible...

Black text on black background is not exactly easy to read.

Yes it is nice. There are still things, like those odd coments, but I believe you will get it all to work.

The top image is maybe a bit too tall, many desktops won't show the text at all... But a nice picture nontheless.

Thank you all for your comments!

I've fixed the even comments to show a shiny #dddddd instead of a dark #202020. It should hopefully do the trick.

@Shaunak: Thanks for your vote.

I hope this design isn't too bright compared to the darker one I had before. It's more snowy at least

@Quinnuendo: It's tall, yes. I tried to cut it off, but it lost much of its charm then, so I decided to keep it. Perhaps I'll tweak it later on, but at this point I have no idea on how to do it. You can hereby call me "the guy with the tall design"

I've removed 150 pixels from the header image above. What do you think? Better?

GOOD job
and this time we CAN see the writing, it was, i think too small on your black back
Can you diminish the left part and increase the central one ??
I think it is hard but would be very useful

Amnith # 29. November 2008, 22:55

@ste-ven: Unfortunately I cannot. I do not have more of the stock image in width, so it'd prove impossible without drastically reducing the width of the content in the central area. I hope that won't keep you from reading here though

Yes it is better

I think it is about as much as you can cut off the picture without ruining it.

Good job

Thanks! I have swatted some more bugs, and the list of known bugs is getting smaller:
- The friends box to the right looks awful.
- The same goes for recent visitors.
- The colours are wrong in the shoutbox.
- The albums does not compute (I haven't touched them yet, been mainly focusing on the blog)
- The links page works, but .. meh.
- The friends page works, incredibly enough. Some small fixes needed though.
- The about page looks terrible.

Please notify me of any bugs you may find. :-)
