What About a New Layout

Postby blue whisper » Wed Nov 17, 2004 8:10 pm

Although I love CAA dearly, I do have a suggestion.

I think it would be nice if CAA got a new or updated layout. I would like to see a little bit more variety and graphics in the layout. I know the CAA staff already has a lot to do, but I think a little change would be okay.

Does anyone have any comments/suggestions on this topic?

Well, this is as best I can say that forum can go graphic wise, unless we go into much more... artistic level. But this isn't exactly an artists' website (or is it? :D) so I guess we should be happy with what he have right now.

I'm here using Lite skin instead of the original since Lite skin was made, and I love it. Probably because I love black/inbetween/white.

Yes! :grin: We need to have it look like Anime Angels -- orange, white and purple! ^____^

(Edit: Maybe someone could just make a new skin. :) )

To be perfectly honest with you guys, we've got some BIG things in the wings that is taking a lot of energy and effort to put together...so unless Straylight or Oldphil get too much sugar and go into a hyper-efficient mode, there won't be a new skin for a while. However, like I said, we have got some absolutely humongeous undertakings on the horizon.

*tosses loads of candy at Oldphil and Straylight* ;)

But in all seriousness, the current layout is still fine with me. I use the lite version which gives it a brighter, more optimistic feel. I wouldn't mind a change in the look every now and then, but I think the most important thing is: It works properly and doesn't take long to load. I really appreciate the efforts made towards making it easier on dialup users like me. ^_^

That is awesome, and I perfectly understand. I cannot wait to see the
updates, and I know how much hard work it must have taken to make this layout. This layout is very nice, but I think it would be interesting just to see a little bit more color and graphics.

Really. Can't wait for it! :thumbsup:

When should we expect to see these absolutely humongeous undertakings?

A month?

A year?

In a really bizarre twist, it's up to God, at this point. I'm guessing we're about 3-4 months out (unfortunately) but reset assured that we're always working on the "next big thing."

I'm with Mave on this one.

Please, PLEASE don't make CAA too graphics intensive! It would be too much to bear for this poor dialup/56K user...

Heh. I have NO INTENTION of adding MORE graphics to this place. We already have to hold our breath at the end of the month because of bandwidth issues. lol.

Don't worry about that one!
