Front Page Re-organization

Post by ADB Graphics »

If you have not yet noticed, the main page for starfleetgames.com has been re-organized a bit. Let me know what you all think.

I like it. Having the buttons in the center puts the navigation that SVC says everyone uses (the indexes) front-and-center. I don't use the indexes (except to find obscure stuff), but it makes sense to make the presentation match the audience.

Very nice. I love seeing more artwork.

I would just suggest changing the graphic for Federation Commander or Non Game products so there's no duplication.

Very nice work, Eric.

i like having the buttons in the center, and the cover of PD Federation is a nice tease... too bad it's not available yet.

I think real old versions of IE (5.0 or later) have this issue your talking about.

Heh. No better than IE5.

Why not try Firefox? Or the eventual descendant of Netscape: SeaMonkey?

Probably will in 3 or 4 years when I jump off XP into whatever M$ has running then ---

I'll schedule my jump off Netscape for the day SVC gives up his MAC --- :)

Looks good. Thanks!

I see that the flagship product of the SFU is front and center, where it deserves to be: SFB! :)

And Eric, when Battlestations Star Fleet comes out, you'll get the fun of reorganising the page all over again!! :)

It does look good. And the little black dot that used to appear when we clicked on the Discus button is gone, too!

Don't know if it was something on ADBs end or mine, but last night when I passed through the main page, the buttons were all lined up nicely ---
Still that way when I started this morning ---

Now when you click on "SVC's Day", it doesn't open another web page. Whoo! Hoo!
