New Features, Design Coming Soon

I've been working on a new design layouts for the site along with some new features which should be implemented in the next couple of weeks. I haven't decided on a final theme or design yet. I know some of you guys are artists/designers, if you're interested in designing some concepts or mock ups, feel free to drop me a line via PM.

There is a new shop in the works which will launch in December featuring books, magazines, CDs, DVDs, jewelery and of course apparel.

That's it for now, more to follow soon...

So far, so good home slice. I'm not sure I like that "Top Poster" crap there. Points out who the top post douche bags possibly are to be honest. "Look at me, I'm a top poster". Con-fucking-grats to be perfectly honest. Who gives a shit? Doesn't necessarily reflect quality.

While I'm at it, here is a design flaw (unless you intended it this way, don't see why you would though). Check out the black background to the boxes in this image. The boxes extend beyond the black "boundaries". My resolution is 1680x1050. Intended or design flaw?

I was thinking somewhat along the same lines but more so that some idiot might think the post count has something to do with how much I post... My thoughts were perhaps this may make me post less to get my name off of that list... In the end I will do what I do no matter what meters are in place to measure my participation...

While some may become engrossed with there post count, watching them trying to keep the material up to par should be fun...

Unfortunately a few cannot seem to retain a glimmer of intelligence in any posts...

P.S. I really just post so much cause I like to see my flashing avatar... ;\) Willy Wonka FTW...

I'm not a huge fan of the Top Poster box either. I don't pay attention to how many posts I make, so I don't care whether I make 5 posts or 50. It isn't a race. I only post when I feel I have a valid opinion or information to add to the conversation at hand. If the topic is casual or includes members I know outside the forum, occasionally I'll make posts directed at them. I do my best to stay on-topic. The only reason I posted about posting is to let everyone know I'm not in it for the numbers. If I posted nothing but bullshit, I would've been banned long ago.

By the way, this will be post #135 ;\) Whoopdee doo.

I can see the benefit of the Top Posters box, it provides people with a list of the more active and vocal members of the forum, something that can be useful to know.

I can see how it is abused on other forums but here we seem to have a group that prefer well thought out and informative posts, you'll likely see a post on this forum with 500+ words, that's almost unheard of on other forums so I have little worry that people will use it as a status symbol.

Douche bag.

You knew I would catch onto it too I bet. The new design is looking good to me. The top image is using a spectrum that doesn't go well with the gray background. I'd recommend a spectrum background to match the black to red you have. A coding challenge! =P

I know you're still in design phase, so I won't pick on you yet.

Nice design so far xear.
I'm not too sure of the big black 'L' around Baphomet though. It's a bit too plain for my taste.

I love the pic of Baphomet though!

I agree with the comment about the big black L and the comment about the colors. What I think is odd is that I logged on earlier today and if memory serves, the side boxes were within the black margin thing. Now they are off again. Perhaps it was a weird display issue on my part? I don't know if you tried to change anything.

Really nice evolution going on here.

I liked the baphomet at the top of the page... I love the red baphomet symbol that you have there now.

Keep it comin baby.. it looks great.

Looking better and better Rick...I like the revised banner (the red curtain effect is a nice touch), as well as having the links to the far right--it's different and makes the top of the page look less cluttered (not that it looked cluttered to begin with, but somehow it seems less so now).

You know I was just remarking to myself about how the new design made the whole "portal" feel seem less cluttered. I really like this latest design.

Truth be told, I didn't design this banner. This one was was done by Rob_Church (sintheticgraphics.com )

It looks good, but the dpi is low. Looks pixelated to me. But, you know me, I'm a picky fucker.
