Please post any praise or gripes on the newest Webmaster-Talk.com design (aka Sleek 1.0) here...

OH MAN I LOVE THIS.

This is an awesome theme, I'm gonna wanna be posting forever now.

(first)

Thanks Trenton. Be sure to add your Adsense code

I like it. It is sleek and tidy.
My only gripe however is that your adsense covers up the logo when the page is narrow - which it is on my 12" iBook...

Yea, I noticed that at 800 x 600. I'll have to make the logo a bit smaller.

I really like the new look. It's a lot nicer to look at that what we had previously.

We are still tweaking various things around the forum to streamline everything. Before we go totally "final" (so to speak), get out any suggestions so we can incorporate them!

Sleek 1.0 looks great. It took me a moment to get used to the difference, but it wasn't a long moment. My only very slight gripe would be that I would prefer to see the forum links and the platinum ads switch places. I imagine once I get used to the new location for getting to the control panel etc I won't really care, but for now I keep reaching for the wrong links. The links are a little on the small side too. Is that two gripes? Both are very minor.

Biggest problem for me: when looking at the forums and the forum topics, the background is #F6F7F9, which I think is a little too close the white that seperates them. Maybe darken it up a little.

I agree. We will work on that.

I reallly like it, The colour scheme is clean..
It stands out enough to notice it, but not too much that it takes focus away from posts..
A definate improvment.

good work!

Anyone notice the new Todays Top Posters box at the bottom?

It doesn't really show a true "today" list since it's not fair for people in different timezones being tethered to the one the server is on (and the list is cached so we can't make it dynamic to the viewers current timezone), so it's really "Top Posters in the last 24 hours"

Also a heads up: We'll be adding a feature that'll let you display your most recent blog post right in your post below your avatar

**vangogh** · 02-19-2006, 10:05 PM

I hadn't noticed that, though I usually go straight to my control panel to respond to subscribed threads and then click on the 'new posts' link so I guess I don't spend a lot of time on the home page of the forum.

Great idea about the recent blog post. Will that be a link back to our blog or a full post? I'm assuming the link.

By the way ignore my minor complaints from earlier. The more I'm using the new design the more I'm liking it. It just took me a day to get used to the change.

I'm really liking all the new improvements. Thanks.

The sleek does look nice, but then the site always looks nice and tidy to me! However, I do like this logo, top left hand corner the best!

**denone** · 05-06-2006, 07:10 PM

It's very bright! I like it. If you were falling asleep you sure would wake up quick. It's so sleek too. Just like the MoneyMaker forum.It's so new!

**Mooofasa** · 07:06 PM

Am I the only one that doesn't like it?

Sorry but the colours are bland and not fresh and there is nothing here to 'entice' me. I loved the previous design, it did have a bug quirks but at least there was more usability out of it.

The sidebar is something that I used regularly, and now I have to take a couple of minutes longer to find what I would like to read/post in.

The current logo is OK, but not as good as the previous. I don't get any feeling of this being a community of webmasters.

Chroder's snapshot of the page looks much brighter than what I am currently seeing.

However, content is King.

What you guys talking about. I don't see anything, is there supposed to be some kind of screenshot in the first post?
Edit
Sorry lol, I didn't realise this topic is a few months old
