if the new website is coming up, is it going to affect the boards at all?

i think i liked the old one more, but i can see that the change is slick and definitely more practical.

I miss the colour though... also looks vaguely like the title of a period drama with the "of" in a different font.

A couple of balls short of a full cascade... or maybe a few cards short of a deck... we'll see how this all fans out.

I think it may be improving the tone of the place a bit much wink

Makes me feel like I should talk more like a proper grown up. It's very nice, it's just serious, which is not something I really associate with poi..

ya i agree. looks more like a restaurant logo than a firespinning website.

that being said - us on the forum are notoriously resistant to change, but then we forget what the old version looked like after a couple of months...

Have to admit it looks better white on black and I do prefer the red "of" grin

I think I would prefer it if you shifted the emphasis from the text to the logo; the text is a bit characterless (pun intended) but the logo is pretty nice (albeit not directly representative of any of the multitude of poi geometric shapes that are now so popular but I guess you don't want to be Playpoi right?).

If the logo was 2-3 times the size and the HOP text proportionately smaller I think it would be much sexier and a whole lot more interesting smile

i like Mr Chutneys suggestion, perhaps even the Logo encircling the name? it does seem somewhat insignificant compared to the words.

also the white orange white text is growing on me smile

Malcolm - you moving over to VB then? Or good ol' PhpBB? grin ...or something else entirely?


IMO, the black bar at the top is too dark. I would have picked a lighter shade of black wink

Personally, I'm not keen on serif fonts on a screen, also the new colour scheme seems a bit off to me - maybe have it reflecting the colour of the green/red flames?

However, it's hard to comment until you see the full picture - when you take something out of context it's harder to understand it.

But agree with Chutters - logo encircling title for teh win! smile


good luck with the the changeover!
