Question for visitors

7:57 PM / Web / Comments5 Comments

Web

Here's your chance to do something really important. No, I'm not talking about voting in the upcoming election (although that's nearly as important): I'm talking about making a contribution to how this site looks. As you may have gathered, I've made some fairly noticeable adjustments to the way the top half of the main news page looks. I'm currently trialling this to see what people think of it, and if the consensus is that it's an improvement on the previous version, then I'll be rolling it out across the site. (To see how it used to look, just go to any other page - such as the individual entry for this post.)

So, love it? Loathe it? Couldn't give a damn? Your views matter!

Updated Friday, April 23, 2010 at 10:13 PM: As you've probably noticed, I ended up applying the revised design to the whole site. Looks like it's here to stay.

It all functions the same so it's all good to me.

It's cleaner and more elegant. Can't say I really prefer it over the other one, they're both ok, but since you put the effort in, why go back?

Personally I'd put the Land of Whimsy graphic on top and the links below it.

I have to agree with Kram Sacul about links below the graphics, besides that I like the new look.

Thanks for the input, guys.

I actually did try it with the menu links before the logo, but for some reason it didn't look right. Going from the centre-aligned menu to the left-aligned page header (Recent Posts, etc.) seemed to look a little wonky.

Did a comment you tried to post accidentally get eaten by the spam filter? It happens from time to time. I get upwards of 200 spam comments every day and unfortunately don't have the time to weed through all of them in case something genuine ended up there by mistake. If one of your posts gets incorrectly flagged as spam, email me at m.r.mackenzie[at]gmail[dot]com and I'll do my best to retrieve it.
