But about the new site- I love it, I have the same complaint that everyone has about the narrowness, so I'm not going to re-iterate that or anything, I just wanted to give my vote to the anti-color side, I love the black and white- it's how I have my entire computer set up, so now gothic.net matches my whole screen! It's gorgeous. It really exceeds any expectations I ever had of change, especially so fast! I'm really blown away- good work.

And I'm glad rep points are gone. That added a cometitive/nobility sort of thing that shouldn't be a part of gothic, in my opinion.

Sigh...I miss the computer my dad had running a double boot of some version of Linux and Windows XP. One day it just wouldn't boot and he hasn't had time to fix it, so I'm stuck using Internet Exploder, with a non-administrative account so I can't visit half of the websites I want to. I liked Firefox, since I like to have multiple windows open at a time.

i'm looking at the site on both IE 6.0 and Firefox 1.0.4.
Still fairly narrow on Firefox, actually it's damn near identical to IE.

Not a problem though, just thought i'd point that out.

(for the non booting dualboot computer..pop in the XP cd, go to the repair console, login to the Admin account and type fixmbr at the DOS prompt, that'll fix it..maybe)

I might try that, but I'm afraid of getting yelled at. And sadly, I don't know command line. o.o;

We, in America, are very well aware of what a doily is. You're old women are not the only ones who have a handle on that market.

Ok, how are the columns now?

I think we've located the problem that was making them super thin in IE, and then widened them a bit more from there as well. Also got a chance to change how the banners fall, so the pages don't bounce around.

They are much better. One thing I have noticed though. The color of the offline/online status light thing can be hard to differentiate between the bright red and the less lumious one. A different color would be nice.

Cool, thanks. Fixed a number of the indicators.

i'll admit i'm still getting used to it.


but i would like to ask if we can bring back the "jump to" box at the bottom of the page. that would be neat-o.

I think the border on the left side needs to be removed. This way the useable working space would be enlarged and the attractive wide pattern on the right edge of the page can remain intact.

Otherwise I love the new look and feel of the site. Excellent work!

I liked Rep Points. Why were they removed?
