This looks fantastic. I like the red welcome banner, it adds color in a place where there wasn't any before. Great job on all accounts!


yea i guess, maybe it just takes a while to get used to it

Thanks for all the comments guys. I'm glad to hear that you like it. smile.gif

For some reason it thinks I have 2 unread messages =X

Personally, im not a fan of the red white and blue.


That's because you actually do. The forums may say you have no new messages, but you still have 2 unread messages. wink.gif

GREAT job!
i'm just curious if our OT topics will show on that first page?
just think it would look weird seeing "my boyfriend dumped me" or something on a car-enthusiasts' main page.


Nope, off-topic, website discussion, and buying/selling topics won't show up on the home page. smile.gif

Again, thanks guys...I'd love to hear whatever critiques you have, no matter how small, how big, or how mean they are. smile.gif

yeah, i love the site, it was amazing before already, and this time you really outdid yourself!! i'm really impressed.

The red on the hompeage will take some getting used to, still not a huge fan, but i'm not here to critique colors or any of that, i'm here just to get info and discuss with fellow 6gc members!! this site could be pink blue and yellow and i'd still come biggrin.gif

i agree about the red on the mainpage. i love red but for some reason its too much. other than that, flawless! looks absolutely stunning and professional. i love the pic of the tach when you are looking at a profile. great job man, i appreciate the work you put into this site.

oh just noticed the new photo-indexed members' rides section, sweeet biggrin.gif

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.

good job! i really like it. way better then the old one.

one small thing i dont like, when you are looking at a members profile, the list of mods is on the right and google adds are on the left. i think it would flow better if the mods were one the left and the ads on the right. ... if that makes sense.

You already know from my posts in the other new site thread that I like the upgrades a lot. I don't like the home page. I thought something had to be wrong there. Everything else that was done is great, but the home page just looks cluttered and not near as professional as the old one. Like I said before though, I love everything else.

Hmm...seems like a lot of people don't like the red? Is it just the color or what? I could make it blue...would that make it better?

The ads are on the left because they fall under the basic Celica info and above the high-res photos. Due to the nature of the mods listing being long for many members, it makes sense to have these three sections side-by-side with the mods listing. Moving the Adsense ads to the right would require moving the basic Celica info to the right as well, and I think it's important to have the basic Celica info as visible as possible. Putting it on the left side makes it more visible than the right side, IMO, and that's why it is the way it is. smile.gif

I played with the member profile page for a couple days messing with several layouts, and in the end, this one turned out to be the best IMO. I could consider laying it out differently though. I appreciate comments like these. smile.gif

I agree...the home page does seem cluttered, especially the left column. Too much text, not enough whitespace, no gray seperator lines, etc. The home page was the last thing I did, and I rushed through it in an effort to get the site up and online. I will be tweaking it for sure soon though to make it look a lot better. smile.gif

the red isnt unbearable, but with the pic in the corner as well i just think its too much. would look better in my opinion if it was light blue banner like the rest of the pages. blue would match the color scheme of the forums better as well, and its more soothing. by the way, ive found so many nice cars with the picture indexing, its awesome. too bad they arent active on the forums frown.gif ... and i found a few that are questionable at best lol

All good things come with time. I'm not going to be upset if it takes you a while to get it up. I don't think anyone is going to be upset with you. If they are, they suck. We all appreciate what you're doing for the community with this website. Take your time, and feel good about yourself. Don't get too big of a head though. wink.gif

I'm a little late getting around to commenting, but I totally love the new site. Great work Coomer, I know you've heard it from everyone else already but this is a totally superior website, and i love the new look. Keep up all of your years of hard work and dedication to the site, it definately shows. smile.gif

Alright, I changed the red bar to blue on the intro page. Does that look better?
