Help make a better website

[Q-Necron]

I dunno, the menu could work. I rather like it, myself. What's wrong with putting labels on all of them?

To small , Home, FAQ, Help and maybe Forums would fit but Downloads and Development would look horrible. Still worth a shot though, I'll add em in and post it so we can see what it would look like.

[Q-Necron]

Hrm, idk? Forums is stretching it on size and IF the change from Download to Get was OK it might not be to bad?

[Olrox]

I'm working on a mock-up based on Q-necron's last one.

Here it is, don't blame be for bad quality, it was quick work. The "Latest happening" is a joke, don't come after my head if Art Revolution v2.22 isn't released on 2/22/2010 !
The main purpose was to see how it'd look with a bigger hud, with text on it. I think that with the text and intuitive icons, it would be very efficient. Also, added a direct link to the Guide, so that it's more accesible. :rolleyes:

...no, this is what I'm talking about:

But that would take too much space, I think.

[GiGaBaNE]

why not just use the ingame words and use rollover for the website uses?

ingame words? for what
I didn't get a thing about what you said, really

No, it would only take a bit more space than the current header.

Me neither.

Just a note, wouldn't "Home" be better placed in the center icon? I would make more sense and give you room for another link in the spare icon.

[GiGaBaNE]

WOW!
That looks sooooooooooo great.
And even original icons can be used:
Research=Help and FAQ (merged)
Factories=Download
Build=Development
Design=Home
Intelligence=Forums
Commanders=Link to http://lobby.wz2100.net/

LMAO im not suprised you dont understand i was having a blond moment. i read the above post and it stuck in my head when i was typing.
i did of course mean use the ingame ICONS and use rollover to produce the words we want to say O_O

I already said why that's a horrible idea. We're not using it ever.

Hrm, I'll see what I can come up with with that layout. Might be a delay as I'm getting my new laptop in today... Got to format and install Ubuntu and get all my stuff transfered over.

Another link for what page?

anyway: if q-necron liked anything on my mock-up, I can provide it (I am rather satisfied with the icons I've found )

My appologies, i must have missed a chunk of the thread, gotta love your statement tho mayhap civility was lost in translation?
