Hi guys,

As promised here is a preview of the new RG homepage design which will be based on the forum skin. Please give constructive criticism on areas that need to be changed so I can give the designers some feedback.

I am aware of some typos, these are not relevant. The main concern is structure and colours.

Looking forward to your feedback.

I love it! It looks very professional, I can't wait to see it in use. Will we be getting a new forum skin to match this website? Also, you should center the ads, maybe put a little box around them just so everyone knows they are ads?
 
Looks amazingly great!
Good job there Glen, I knew you were going to do amazing things for the forum.
 
Nice, it brings more of a friendly yet very formal point of view to the forum.
 
Obviously the text styles and things need to be changed, and then it will look even more boss. But I love it so far.
 
Looks cool can't wait to see it finished
 
Rune gear is a black market forum, basically a web where people buy\sell ingame money, items, accounts, etc. The new theme is awesome, but its not for websites like Rune Gear. The new theme looks good on sites like stores which professionally sells things.


As he said... Its not for Black Market Audience...
 
I like it honestly, some minor changes and it will be pretty good. Updates could be on the front page and stuff, I just hate the logo
 
I like it a lot. But the title is in an indeed overused text.
 


I agree, more for a store.
 
Looking good, but I think there should be a forum link on the top bar aswell
 
It depends whether it could be coded or not, but maybe give users the option to change their background on the forum to one of their choice (on their computer)? So users upload the background they want to tinypic or imgur and then put the link in a setting in their profile. The theme then calls from that setting to grab the url. Just a thought that I think would be cool.

Don't know if it helps, but here's a code I picked up that automatically resizes a background image (Me using it here. Resize the page in your browser and you will see what I mean: http://unitgamers.com/terrariacp )

Code: 
img.bg {
	min-height: 100%;
	min-width: 1024px;
	width: 100%;
	height: auto;
	position: fixed;
	top: 0;
	left: 0;
	z-index: -1;
}
		
@media screen and (max-width: 1024px){
	img.bg {
		left: 50%;
		margin-left: -512px; }
}

EDIT:

Thanks for all of the feedback. I have taken some on-board and have sent that to the designers. Also there will be an option for users to set the background to their desired game after they have registered.
Click to expand...

When you say "desired game". Are we allowed do use our own? Or is there only a list of pre-selected backgrounds?
