even desktops would benefit from a widescreen-friendly design. although a cool effect, it gets a bit irksome having to click on each and every image in order to fullsize it. why not have it dynamically resize itself when i fullscreen my browser window?
i had fun once, and it was awful.

That kind of thing is one of the main goals. I'm flying out to Norway next week, looking forward to chilling out and getting going with some stuff.

A darker color scheme would be nice, yes. I'm getting sort of tired of the white and light gray.

A forum for strictly dedicated to modeling would be cool. There doesn't seem to be a specific forum for modeling?

It was merged into Art Creation some time ago.

Regarding the darker theme, that is certainly something that can be looked at. Perhaps a separate forum theme

I like the bright theme a lot, maybe a poll would be good, to see, what the majority here likes more.

I spend most of my time on interlopers on my phone so I'm looking forward to the new mobile functionality. Hopefully the android internet browser will be updated as well so posting won't be such an awful pain.

More Ajax please. I'm on the darker theme bandwagon too.

I hope you keep a lighter theme. :) And if you do it's the same colors as they are now.

I reckon keep with the fairly light theme, but use stronger colours within main areas of interest (e.g. banners)
IMO combining white, light greys and colours like strong natural green or deep blue looks *really* nice

I also would prefer the theme to stay fairly light, I strongly prefer dark text on light backgrounds to the inverse... although I'd be fine with a choice between the two!

The best section on Interlopers to me is the *Forum Latest* section. Maybe try to put more emphasis on this section? A bigger list of recent topics sorted by categories?! Make that section present everywhere in the design?! Just throwing ideas. I spend most of my time here just looking at the forum latest! so it's a definite keeper!

It would be awesome if there could be a "New" logo/text next to them as well, based of the new posts search system(so it's per-user).


Maybe some new banners/logos at the top of the page as well. Not replacing the old ones, just adding on to the current selection.
Have a question related to modding or something I posted? Something that needs staff attention? I haven't been active lately, but feel free to PM me or message me on Steam(link below)

maybe change the interlopers catch phrase "Half-life 2 News & Tutorials"

INTERLOPERS.NET
The best Source for Half-life 2 news!

:lol: Gosh I suck at this.. but hopefully you know what I mean. Something includes the most recent Source made games as well as the ones to come, not just Half-life 2!
