My main issue is that every time I get off the BBS and then come back on at a later point I become logged out.

That's a serious bitch.

However, I think it's ugly and looks like it was made in 15 minutes.

Dude, the Mustywindows buttons have the same type of scheme, minus the orange-yellow tint of NG and the splitter lines.

I liked the old header better. and everything by everyone sounds familiar like ive seen it sum were but well it doesnt look as nice or professional.

Response to New Header 2006-02-14 22:02:29


I'm looking forward to the rest. I love change. And this is way better already. CSS is also the way a layout should be made so it's probably for the best!

Response to New Header 2006-02-14 22:05:49


You know I really respect all the work that went into this new change.. BUT, my first reaction was and still is what the hell is this **shit. Honestly, the layout is not a professional looking at all and very childish, it bumps Newgrounds down a lot of notches on the cutting edge Flash Portal site the home page gives off a wanna be cartoon network adult swim feel. I remember one time I did a full page ad for my grandmother’s garden center and I though it was the best thing, but her reaction was it was very juvenile and after looking over it a few time I had to agree, My graphics took up too much room for content and pulled away from what everyone really went to our garden center for.. It hurt to hear it but she was right in the end and we kept the old layout which worked for us for many many years. We always kepted the content fresh but the foundation never changed and our business stayed strong.

You know the tank logo is great, but the rest.. the space it takes up and the cartoon style buttons don’t pay tribute to a great site. We give you a A+ for effort and wish you the best in the decision you need to make..

Well hey guy did you the here lots of the user like the new look! and it does not look childesh.

The goal is to clean up the layout and optimize the load (switching to CSS), while not looking bland. Stamper came up with a new header, using Jeff's revision of the NG tank logo. We think it looks great and I'm too impatient to wait for the rest of the redesign, so we're launching it ahead of the future changes.

The rest of the site will be changing to blend more with the style of the new header. I know many of you hate change, but please give this a chance. The new layout should ultimately be a much smoother experience for everyone.
I'll start making the changes live right now!

aaaaaawesooooome!!!

althrough at the strart it looked kinda ugly, a little unorganized, i didnt like the search bar justout there, i think it should be under the login spaces...

i guess you guys are gonna change the background from gray to black arent you? or else the header would look kinda ugly with the background in gray...

i hope you guys do something like the PSP's NG design, and im sure you are going to change the login page, i meman, that small square in the big gray space doesnt look really good...

i hope you change the bots a little, like in diferent poses, and maybe we could finally meet G-bot :D

keep those changes in the good way

so tom what are you doing to the audio portal???

Response to New Header 2006-02-14 22:13:52


Fucking horrible, i'm dissapointed.

Response to New Header 2006-02-14 22:14:55


It looks alright. The buttons are bigger and arent flash buttons anymore. The downside is that it looks that the header takes up more room. And it's going to take some time to get used to it.


free.

Yes make audio pretty. A shiny new A-bot maybe. Or something that gives it a whole different look and appeal than the flash portal.

Good Evening Tom,

You are turning Newgrounds into the commercial Portal of the World instead of the Flash Portal of the world. I can see that the site needs the money from advertisements to run. I appreciate your latest reduction in the advertising. However I do not believe that the public deserves advertising like the Zango Gateway that is required to view most of the site's adult content. The site is really taking a turn for the worse in this respect. There is something however that bothers me even more than this. In short you are letting the site become too politically correct. The motto of the site now says "Everything , by Everyone." Newgrounds was created by your own hand to be politically incorect. "The Problems of the Future, Today!" is the classic motto I believe that your site should stick by. It seems as if Newgrounds is losing it's sense of independence. Due to public events the more unique parts of the site are not active like they should be. The Assassin section is one of these. In other words I believe that Newgrounds should bring projects like Pico 2, the DK Project, and the like back from the brink of death. Someone needs to carry on the old traditions. This is where Newgrounds has its roots. If at nothing else please just change the motto back!

Thank You For Your Time.

I hope you don't change the backround black and make it sorda like the old look and made it ugly again. Well it still looks good. But the problom is that you keep on changing around your site, like the login screen for example. first it was in a popup window and looked quite sexy for the control panel and now it looks daul and ugly. When you do change the look threw out the site please don't make it ugly and so NG fans will loose there interest in the site and you loose rates. but otherwiase the header looks geat and I can't wate for the new look!

Response to New Header 2006-02-14 22:23:46


I like the new look. Keep up the good work, guys.

im sure this has been said. i dont feel like sifting through 300-something replies to check, though.

the new header reminds me of the 2003-newgrounds layout.

1. Old Slogan was better

Fuck yes.

2. Banner is too tall

It's not that bad, but it is much taller than the last.

3. Needs a tiny space at the top

Why?

4. People are saying it's cartoony. It's not really, but the thing is it doesnt really go well with the current color scheme of the site (grey and yellowish). It's more orange and black (which is close, but there's a bit of a difference between the 2 schemes.) I have a feeling the banner will go great with the new design, but i personally thing it was too soon to do the change, cause it just doesnt go with the rest of the site right now.

Agreed.

5. Forums should be a big button that takes the place of the matuure sectiion.

Yeah, I agree with whoever said It was just a collection. It should be treated as such.
