((-edit for clarity: This is only the in-uo.net site, not the forums.))
I'm looking to change the design of the website a bit and was looking for feedback.
I don't like the black text on white background at *all*. I had a nice black and purple theme going, but Taran isn't manly enough to appreciate purple and crapped over himself changing it back to white. (hehe. I can say it because he's on Vacation)
I'm looking for feedback on color schemes, effects, etc to modify the theme. Pretty much anything you'd like to see happen; additions, changes, subtractions, etc.
I'd personally like to have it have a dark background with light text. Perhaps have the background color and image changed to better match the Imagine Nation theme.
I like the menus the way they are now but I'm thinking that the vote banners could be moved somewhere else so that the page display is wider; alternately, I'd like to fill in something besides just the vote buttons so that they aren't all by themselves.
I think the "Home" page needs to show a news feed that updates more often though... perhaps I can find a way to integrate it with vBulletin to automatically pull content from the Town Crier forum as news.

It would be alot easier if you could upload some screens with some themes (only the color integration)...

Personally I like it the way it is. But if you must change it, then why not change the color scheme to match that of the forum?

Make the "Server status" page without an iframe. The scrolling there is irritating ;/ I wanna see all names right away.

You can load it directly here:
http://game.in-uo.net/serverstatus/status.php
That php script is actually on the server, which is separate from the web-hosting so it needs to be included externally. I can look into more efficient ways of doing this perhaps. Perhaps a php include.

This should do it
In the iframe CSS:
Code:
body {
overflow: hidden;
}
if not, try this:
Code:
div.autoheight {
height: auto;
}

I'm liking the new look!

It's giving me hell. I managed to modify background colors and frame height on this:
http://in-uo.net/index.php/changelogs/staticupdates
But, that's loading an external text file, not executing a remote PHP file.
If I try do do this, it makes really janky html code where it's reopening body and head tags within the actual body tag. :
Code:
<?php include 'http://game.in-uo.net/serverstatus/status.php' ?>
Plus it looks like there are some colors hard-coded into the php file that I can't override with stylesheets. I'm going to have to either modify the php file on the server or get Taran to do it. ;P
But, I dont' want to muck with that until I know Taran's not going to poop himself over the new color scheme.

Well, the forum has the same colors so I think it should be ok

Or else, I'll haunt him by night and slap him in the head!
