New SOTT site layout

<< < (2/16) > >>

Gawan:
Yes it is, great work it looks more "plastic/realistic" like now, well shiny. ;)  :dance:

And there are also new logos, for KNB for example.  :thup: :rockon:

RedFox:
Very impressive! I liked the previous change, so this change is an excellent update. The multi language function looks particularly good.
I'll agree with what others have said, it does look a lot clearer.

Mac:
Very impressive. Easier to read, smooth navigation, nice layout.

Well done!

Mr. Scott:
The focus this time was on readability and the content itself (i.e. the articles).

Some fun facts:

I used a web site to calculate total server requests/total page sizes for the old SOTT and the new SOTT design.

With the new theme, total requests to the server (to load the homepage) dropped from 200 to 135, or a 32.5% reduction.

Total downloaded bytes dropped from 1,749,398 to 1,130,557, or a 35.4% reduction.

In plain English, that means MORE SPEED!!!

The other focus of this change was to greatly simplify the design of the site such that we could actually have Themes again. The old design was so darn complicated that themes would have been an insane amount of work.

I'm already working on the 2nd theme, which shall be called:

Ice Age

:D

Psyche:
It is so incredibly cool! I like it better!  :) :rockon: :thup: :clap: :headbanger:
