Does lopers need a refresh?

[Blink]

We're known too change lopers now and again, but I wanted to test the water and see what people thought. Would you be against a change to the look of the site?

Anything I did would be to improve the experience (like widening the site a bit more) but do you think it would be necessary? Is the current site design a bit tired?

Opinions please

I like how the site is now, but that's not saying i wouldn't mind a new design.

i'd say leave as is, unless something is specifically broken that you want to fix.

Well, the thing I like most on this forum is how clean and orderly it looks. I really like the white and how neatly the posts fit together. If we were to change the site's look, I would suggest just changing blank background to a floating image of something like stripes to get more individuality. Two useful tips to Web-page designers is to use bold, solid colors and simple geometry elements on the over-all 2D view. (Example: If there were stripes, they should be thick and bold colors.) Perhaps we could change the head banner?

I say there's no harm in changing it! I tend to update sites once every year with a fresh new look, just for fun!

Purhaps you could make it more "personal", increase the need/want of an account. Purhaps you could make a list for Most Viewed Topics for each user, and a list for topics that the user wishes to follow so he can easily acces it without the need to go through the forums->category->topic method.

Things like that makes it fun to go check whats new every now and then.

I love it the way it is now. Maybe we could add a UE3 section though (I know this has been discussed).

Also a suggestion is to have the banner be updated to a screenshot from the Map Spotlight, I think that would be cool.

[Megadude]

Probably a new banner, but other than that leave it as it is.

Is the current site design a bit tired? No, not in my opinion. Like Miede said, unless there's something you really need to fix, leave it as it is.

[Mr. Happy]

The site is absolutely beautiful.

I love the site but I have faith that you would put out something equally as good or even better than this one. And if you don't, we could just vote it off.

Doesnt time fly? Isnt it approaching two years since the redesign?

I'm some what biased but I rather like it as it is!

[Ennui]

Site's lookin' pretty good as it is, I wouldn't mess with it unless you have plans for more functionality of some kind.

I really like the way the site looks now.
