Marc Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 We have diligently slaved over a hot laptop for months to bring you the latest in od[force] front pages. If you go there now you will notice a few interesting things. One of which would be that the rest of the displacement videos are up and running. Secondly (and presumably once you've recovered from shock) you'll notice that there are some slight changes to the look of the page. And by slight, of course I mean it's completely changed. It's also driven entirely by wordpress, which means that we'll actually probably update it on a more regular basis from now on. Unfortunately the gallery is mildly broken for a bit, but rest assured we are working at full tilt (full tilt being in between work, new baby, new house etc. ... so, er more like half tilt then) trying to restore functionality as soon as we can. Also the skins for the forum, wiki and gallery need to be updated to support the new look. We hope you all enjoy it. It should make reading old articles and interviews much more pleasant and accessible. Thanks Marc and the od[force] team. P.S. We are actively seeking people who want to write tutorials for us. Seriously... we mean it. And you may well actually get paid for your time too, so don't delay . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 I agree! I think Marc and the odcouncil members did a great job! Please, now that it's live, feel free to give constructive feedback to improve it even further. We know we need to update the forum and wiki skins to the new color scheme already.

sibarrick Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 That's very cool, I like it! I'm amazed you can manage even half tilt with all that going on. I think I'd be flat out, and by flat out I mean lying down catching some zzzzzzzz's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anamous Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 waiting for someone to proclaim that the old layout (like *really* old) was so hardcore oldschool and the pinnacle of human achievement and ... i hate the shelf! seriously, so so so thankful for the amount of effort you guys put into this, probably the best community around. Onwards, odcouncil! i'm also confused about the amount of free time you seem to have. i really should be outsourcing work to you cheers, Abdelkareem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc Posted May 26, 2009 Author Share Posted May 26, 2009 waiting for someone to proclaim that the old layout (like *really* old) was so hardcore oldschool and the pinnacle of human achievement and ... i hate the shelf! But the logo glows now... .so no-one can argue with that. I thought of adding some sweet lens flares, but I didn't want to overwhelm everyone . Seriously though, glad everyone likes it. :afro: M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Div Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Haven't noticed, i've got forums.odforce.net as startup page... It looks great ! can't wait to see the full new od[force] look.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malexander Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Looks much better. Though on my monitor, Linux + firefox 3.5, the categories are pretty much invisible (Challenge, Featured, Interview, News Tutorials). Perhaps I need to recalibrate my color correction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 they are quite pale for me also... that said I've never calibrated my monitors here at work - no point for my job...and I just realized that a 'square' isn't square LOL...that might need to be fixed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
