Ooooh, Shiny!

[Munro]

Welcome to new and improved Halflife2.net! It's been many months in the making and myself and Chris_D, backed up by a talented team of content writers, have written loads of new content and improved the look and feel of the site overall.
[br]
As well as some front end stuff that I'm sure you've all already noticed, there's also some back end improvements which mean we'll get news and articles to you faster than ever before. While you peruse the new content, you may noticed that there's certain pages missing or incomplete. Some of them are already in progress, but others are yet to be started. If you see any content that needs to be done and you want to help complete it, then please contact me by e-mail at [email protected].

Hoorah!

 

[evil^milk]

yay, LoLz!

 

[Varsity]

How long did the previous style last for? Wasn't all _that_ long.

The new one is very DA.

 

[Argyll]

Spiffy!

 

[B-MAn]

Wooo! cool looks good

 

[GonzoBabbleshit]

haha. it took me about 5 minutes to find the forum link from the main page!

 

[SimonomiS]

Woah, just looking through there is either a ****load of new content, or a ****load of content I never noticed before.
Looks pretty snazzy if a little crowded because of some of the bars.
Good job. :thumbs:
Mainly just the Editing stuff to finish I think. Mod-Listing looks handy.

 

[Hectic Glenn]

w00t at last, looks the same with a new lick of paint

*looks more*

 

[Dodo]

haha. it took me about 5 minutes to find the forum link from the main page!

hahahahhah me to .. i was lost for a second, and is there an option to get the old style back ?

but nice work

 

[Munro]

Want me to make a bigger more obvious link to the forums?

 

[Gorgon]

Very nice, I like the gray boxes. very nice

 

[SimonomiS]

I think people will find the forum link alright, its just getting into the habit of looking at the right I think.

You should probably get rid of the Sierra link in the Link section. Or are they still publishing Half Life?

Are there going to be staff photos?? :E

 

[SupremePain]

Nice!

You just been pimped, daddy!

 

[Varsity]

Right, nitpick time.

http://www.halflife2.net/page.php?p=aftermath_overview says HL2:A is Steam only, untrue.

Help & Tutorials under the Steam heading leads to http://www.halflife2.net/articles.php?category=6

There's a few things I seem to remeber from the latest Source datasheet that aren't mentioned in http://www.halflife2.net/page.php?p=engine

The induvidual image thumbnails the gallery displays are hardly any bigger than the ones you get on the main browsing page

I'm done for now.

Edit: actually, no I'm not. Could you make the header image link back to the main page? It's a bigger target than News Home.

 

[Ennui]

I like it.

 

[Jangle]

help, i cant find the link for the forums! I had to type the url in instead.

apart from that, very cool

edit: found it. Panic over

 

[KU_]

Looking good!

 

[The Monkey]

Want me to make a bigger more obvious link to the forums?

Yes, that would be nice. Except that, it's a great work. Well done :cheers:

its on the right hand right now, under community.

And yes Munro, for the newbies to the site, maybe make that community bit stand out a tiny bit more and it will be fine.

Look on the right.

Nice article.

 

[Harryz]

Overview of the HL and HL2 storylines is awesome and well written. The only problem I can see is that it lacks Team Fortress 2 info.

Its great how the "Community" bar is on the side.

 

[Burning Fish]

Nice job! Like the new look of the site and forum! :cheers:

 

[KagePrototype]

omfg! :O

 

[A True Canadian]

Just like the forum upgrade I think this one is very sharp.


However, I liked the old slogan better.

 

[Insano]

Nicely done, Munro.

But to be honest, I'm still a bit disappointed because of the lack of Alyx pron

 

[Harryz]

Haha, filter news.:E

Awww, walkthrough.

:E:E

You've virtually covered everything. Good job peeps!

 

[qckbeam]

Haha, filter news.:E

There was a filter for the news before...

 

[Kirkburn]

I don't recall it working ...

 

[Garfield_]

i think the new skin is crap :S

 

[Ames]

Oh hello new website theme.

 

[SimonomiS]

i think the new skin is crap :S

You came back to say that?

 

[Mechagodzilla]

The HL2 concept art section has a couple CT's listed as combine soldiers.

Otherwise, it looks pretty nice.

 

[polyguns]

its subtle, i didn't even notice it

 

[KitoAce]

i noticed it soon as i came on , i REALY dont like it , the colors black grey and this new brown i dont even think it matches at all

but thats just me

 

[Harryz]

There was a filter for the news before...

*Cough* *cough*

Theres a filter news..

 

[Asknoone]

Awesome.

 

[Ennui]

i think the new skin is crap :S

psssh, just because it doesn't have a section on how to deal with girls :|

 

[SkiZy]

i don't think it looks that good :dozey:

 

[Thadius Dean]

I'm not too fond of it, but then again I'm not really fond of change in general. I'm sure I'll like it soon enough
