If you're a regular on the site you may have noticed a few site layout changes to streamline navigation. All menu links are now on the top of the site, with account functions etc consolidated right at the top, and the rest of the navigation beside our logo.

Please let me know if you encounter any bugs or browsing errors.

P.S. forgot to add this new layout frees up more space for mini goodness. Maximum image width is now 730 pixels!

No bugs or errors, but is it intentionally, that the bottm menuebar has got antoher look than the upper one? In my opinion I would rather like it more, if it would be in the colors of the site (black orange).

The voting of the last vote is shown on the left side. Unfortunatally the headings of the votings are too long, so that the layout seems broken. In German one is in two lines (no problem), but the one in the middle is so long, that it overwrites the one on the right.

Is it intentionally, that some submissions have their comment on their right side, while others have it still on the bottom? I like the Idea on the right side, but is it possible to do it to all submissions? Or to unify it?

Greetings, Taggi

I like the new layout and really like the "Today's Posts" option in the drop-down on the main page.

Today's Posts - The actually exists in the forum "quick links" drop down as well.

Colors - Once everything is setup I'll adjust the style sheet to change the menu colors.

Bottom links - These are links that are generally not of much interest to general users (stuff like advertising info, contact etc) so it's stuffed down there.

look good.
I might had missed it but..did you advertise the changes befor they occur?
I said it because I had problems connecting (suppose because of the changes) but could not understand what was wrong!!!

No, I normally don't broadcast changes in advance if they are for minor tweaks. Usually this is done when everyone in Europe and the US is Zzzzzzz, sorry to panick you :)

Yes it is nice , I noticed yesterday here the site was down but you could access the index,after a few minutes it returned...I do not envy your site maintenance it is quite a bit of data. Thank you for all that you do for us Chern

A big improvement, this site is awesome but navigation is a bit difficult.

Could still come a long way if you wanted it to, feel free to check out my company www.bkdsn.com, we could give you a nice graphic overhaul and tie in all those menus etc into a smooth, coherent coolmini brand!

i have trouble telling when im logged in. before, all the categories would have a dash if i wasn't logged in now there is nothing. i just voted on about 50 minis as an unregistered voter (and now ill see them all again....). a bit of a pain because i use several computers, and cant be bothered to see if im logged in :wink: .
perhaps if the "sign in" box were bright red?

I'm especially enjoying the drop down options to visit "todays posts" from the forum link. Nice shortcut that. :victory:

Click to expand...

I'm using another colour scheme than the default so whenever I see the 'standard' colours I'm not logged in. ;)
But apparently I'm unable to at the moment...

probably unable to login on the homepage...

i'm having that problem...
i tried logging in from both the front page, but no love...
somehow it is logging me into the forums, but not the homepage...

i tried logging out, and then logging in through the forum, and clicking "remember me", but still no love on the frontpage...

i have some new stuff to upload this weekend, and i just subscribed so i can link my auctions, so hopefully i will be back in business soon:(...

thanks for all your hard work, Chern...

cheers
