Andrew275 · Aug 10, 2004, 12:17 AM

Well?

jsx[ifl] · Aug 10, 2004, 12:54 AM

ooooo very fancy

YG007 · Aug 10, 2004, 12:56 AM

Nice nice!!

GutterPunk · Aug 10, 2004, 01:02 AM

I likey,,,, thanks!

wertret · Aug 10, 2004, 01:03 AM

Sweet improvements, very nice work guys

Zardon · Aug 10, 2004, 01:05 AM

we are aware there are alot of things not working just yet - flash sigs etc etc and many more, but andrew is working on the database and indexing so they will gradually starting working, so in the meantime just everyone get used to the new options and finding your feet, also those of you who used pixel sizes in your signatures may now find you have massive type in your signature. the admins will help to sort these out if we see them but obviously if you see them yourself edit the sizing. thanks guys.

Zardon · Aug 10, 2004, 01:12 AM

there is also a submit news forum if you guys not in the news team have something you feel is interesting. staff can then move it into the news forum which will hit front page.

Ev!L-aLphA · Aug 10, 2004, 01:26 AM

I shall call it...
TOTALY AWESOME guys u really rock

Zardon · Aug 10, 2004, 01:27 AM

Craig put alot of work into this guys, porting the default theme isnt as easy as you would think and he wasnt even the original designer so it was even harder. he did an awesome job and as always andrew has the technical skills to sort any problem out - im proud to call these two guys my mates.

Bear with us as we fine tune stuff and get things working right - we figured you would like to get in as soon as possible and play with the new goodies.

dipstick · Aug 10, 2004, 01:35 AM

Looks nice, I like it.
Thanks for all the hard work, very appreciated.

Necrosis · Aug 10, 2004, 01:36 AM

Very nice, already familar with how everything works. Trust me I know how big of a headache it can be especially /w applying hacks.

TwistedMetal · Aug 10, 2004, 01:39 AM

Well, I like the upgrade, but I do have a suggestion though. Need a new logo to go along with the new site. Need something up to date and stylish.

That logo. I love the DH logo!

mkk · Aug 10, 2004, 01:41 AM

Looks fine so far. Screw the flash hacks.

LeanWolf · Aug 10, 2004, 01:49 AM

i'd vote for a new icon, that lil' pic that comes up in the address bar and beside your bookmark, but i guess you guys have your hands full with other stuff right now

Looking good so far, your great work's very appreciated!

I second this. Is it something that is going to be coming when everything is sorted out, or is this no longer going to be around? I thought this was one of the best things about the site.

reno · Aug 10, 2004, 03:34 AM

I miss the quicklinks to news

Andrew275 · Aug 10, 2004, 03:35 AM

Yes, that will come back once I get around to it.

CDsDontBurn · Aug 10, 2004, 03:36 AM

The upgrade is ok i guess. I'm not one who easily accepts cmajor changes. Been browsing and posting a lil bit on here on DH and still getting used to it.

The poll needs another vote option saying: "still getting used to this" or something like that.

No_Style · Aug 10, 2004, 03:51 AM

I for one am very pleased to see this up an running. I honestly didn't think it would happen this soon!

Good work, Andrew and everybody involved!

Warpy · Aug 10, 2004, 03:55 AM

I don't really like it... I guess I prefer the old way, since Themes and appearance is so important to me........ I wish I could make the appearance different like the way it use to be with the theme switcher.
