Header Updates 2006-02-16 11:37:36


We've tweeked the header some more, so there is now a checkbox to "Save!" your login info. If you check this box, you will remain logged in to NG with each visit.

Also, when you log in, it will now refresh the current page. This makes it easier to get to work, since most of the time users aren't trying to access their account info. If you do need to access your account info, simply click the "ACCOUNT OPTIONS" button that appears after you log in. We are hoping this way works best for most people!

So the buttons might still be too big, the vertical height too tall, and the slogan too bland - but beyond that - any other bugs / glitches with the new header?

BTW - we noticed a dramatic increase in sign-ups yesterday. If the trend continues, it means the new header has encouraged a lot more people to sign up for accounts. Hopefully that's a good thing! :)

I must unfourtainly say that I can't see any difference speaking about the size of the buttons, but I'm sure glad to hear about the increasing amount of sign ups! :-)

Response to Header Updates 2006-02-16 11:41:00


Great with the ''Save!'' box, i clicked it immediatly. But this thing with returning to the same page, i think for those who are interested in checkin his or her stats in the morning could have the option whether or not he'd like to return to the GG menu, or the current page.

I know it's really just one click away, but it might get annoying. But what do i know, eh?

It seems like that only would cause more trouble in programming since the need might be so small anyways.

I noticed that but a few minutes ago XD

Hmm, no.. I think it's looking good actually.

That's good. I was looking for it, but I thode it is some new trick or some...

Nope, it is AWESOME!

Ah, that's great Tom! I had to use the Grounds Gold page to try and automatically log on, but now it's updated, it's good! Thanks for that!

It's certainly a good thing. More users, so maybe more people I will help out and more people who will make flashes on NG and submit them. :)

cool, makes me think what other updates there will be to the site.

Response to Header Updates 2006-02-16 11:44:35


I was wondering when you would update the header with that \"Save login info\" button. Good job! :)

Everything is a lot better now. Although I think the BBS deserves a bigger button.

Maybe there can be a different slogan for each section of newgrounds. Like in the home page, it has that slogan we have at the moment. When you go to the Flash Portal, the slogan might be different, like "Save the best, blam the rest!" And then on and on like that.

Just a idea.

I don't think it's because of the new header, I think that whenever you change something noticable, people sign up.

It needs to be wider. The huge gaps at the edges annoy me to no end.

I just recently accessed NG and noticed it right away, thanks, it makes all our lives easier.

Also, when you log in, it will now refresh the current page. This makes it easier to get to work, since most of the time users aren't trying to access their account info. If you do need to access your account info, simply click the "ACCOUNT OPTIONS" button that appears after you log in. We are hoping this way works best for most people!

That's fine with me, I don't really mind it that much. What's a click away won't do me any bad.

No glitches, works fine, and yes, the buttons need to be improved on.

BTW - we noticed a dramatic increase in sign-ups yesterday. If the trend continues, it means the new header has encouraged a lot more people to sign up for accounts. Hopefully that's a good thing! :)

That's cool. It's great to see NG is changing. It'l be great when we reach 1,000,000 users, even if some of those are alts.

Its probably a good thing but great work on the new additional stuff. I was going to email you when you first put the new header up about mabye adding a save box next to your log in, im not too sure why i didnt in the end but good work for adding it.

Well like I emailed you about yesterday, if you login with the original login page, it will log you in and you can vote normally, but the account info button doesn't appear.

But hopefully that's been fixed now. :)

I enjoy the vast Improvement to NG. I love the new header and the layout looks cleaner. It's also nice that now I can save my log in info (it's sad when you do all that voting and find out your not even logged in >.<) and I don't have to keep going to my profile page. I can see why more people would be signing up with the new layout. :)
