Larian Studios Forums General About this website maybe a new design ?

How about redesigning some of the elements of the site?

Don't get angry now...I don't mean no offense...
it's just that the site looks...uhmmmmm...old!

I was just suggesting a new navigation and some new colors perhaps...
On second thought no! just the navigation...I think it's the worst part of the design...

Then again it might just be me... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Anywayz, very good site...I like it!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />

Well, what ideas do you have?

whats wrong with this one?


and wasn't there a post already about this?

there's nothing wrong with this one but it just looks kinda old...out of date...

as for ideeas...I always have them <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> but I can't put it in words...maybe I can give you an example...
just let me know <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />

I think it's looking old too.

Perhaps, but I'd hate to see any of the features go. This software for this board is quite good.

yes, and we'd need to all reregister or whatever.

and there'd be NO WAY of me getting in under 100, because they'd do it at 3 AM my time, then I'd register when I could and be member 3000+! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

yep <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> we already went through this a while ago <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />
there is nothing wrong with this board, forum, colors, IMO anyway! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
i say it's fine, works well, and is easy to use.....
not like some other forums
maybe it's just me tho.....i have been called stupid........once! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

In the "spelletjes garnaal" forum they have stats like a hero. Youve got exp, magic points and hitpoints. you level up when your exp bar is full. It's nice because this gives a rpg look to it. But this is only if rat or lynn have a bit of time on theire hands. Personally i wouldn't change it. I like this style.

That sounds fun. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Hitpoints? Mods take off a point everytime you're naughty? Three strikes and you're out!

Hit points sounds fun. But I will personally wouldn´t like the board to change. I was reading for a month till I get used to it and learn how to navigate. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

uhm...guys...

I think you missed my point!

I wasn't talking about the forum. I actually was suggesting to redesign the site, but leave all info and the board the same...

ah the actual <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beyond.gif" alt="" /> site you mean

These points do exits in Germany regarding driving / behaviour on streets : The so-called "Flensburger Punkte" , points named after the town of FLensburg (high in the north), where a list with these points for every driver is kept. The worse you do, the more points (for example crossing a street while the traffic lights are red).

On several forums here, in Estonia, instead of post count, we have something like "respect" count represented as stars. On the scale from +8 to -4 or so.

So, respect is earned through actions. Every member, who reached 4 or 5 stars can give out respect points to other members. 10 respect points will give you a star (maybe less I am not sure).

When some [nocando] head comes and starts offending peeps, he gathers negative points and after gathering -4 stars a lamb appears under his ava. He is not respected, he is a lamb. He is banned if collects even more - points.

Sure, this has nothing to do with design, but still I liked the idea.

Edited: Sorry, forgot to add, you become a member and automatically get two stars.

Sounds interesting. Haven't heard of that one before.

I wander what "Thor-the-bleedin-almighty" would be on now? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

he probably has the lamb.....
