I wanted to try non-gay for a change. Maybe I'll put it back but no for the next weeks.

Non-gay?
#15412 posted by metlslime on 2008/10/23 21:59:12
i actually preferred the half-gay design you had a little while ago -- more brown, but still with the pink highlights and that syringe.
#15413 posted by - on 2008/10/23 23:55:42
ugh.
the greenish brown background with the red is not doing you any favours. I suggest going more rustic brown.
And you need to make sure the width of the page is the same as the title logo on all pages, looks very poor when it's not aligned right. And the logo itself is hard to read, the background being much more busy and bright than the text.
I did a quick photoshop to fix up the colors and make the logo slightly more readable.

whether it was gay or not, it was distinctive and unique.

Change the pink liquid to brown.
Not gay at all.

While you are right with the easy readability your version looks like glquake without any full- and overbrights.
Thanks for the feedback everyone.

1994 Called

1994 Called

I like it. 1994 seems like a perfect design sense for a website dedicated to Quake 1.
#15422 posted by Spirit on 2008/10/24 15:38:53
1997 called, they want their "1994 called" slogan back.
I am already using Javascript to help the buggy Firefox render the map description, does that not make Quaddicted next-gen2.0 enough?
There Are Things From 1994 That Look Good
#15423 posted by Lunaran on 2008/10/24 16:23:47
and there are websites that have header images made out of embossed cutouts of quake textures.
that any better?

If you want to help you will never succeed with such attitude.

Change the character outlines to white so the letters pop off the logo better. That would be enough to finally make the nay-sayer's heads explode. Or, at the very least, move on to whatever is next on their seemingly endless "Things to whine about" lists.
The Lava Background
#15426 posted by Lunaran on 2008/10/24 17:08:04
is high contrast and busy. The letters are low contrast, darker than the bright parts of the lava but brighter than the dark parts. The old chrome cursive was actually easier to read.
#15427 posted by JneeraZ on 2008/10/24 17:14:53
I agree with the low contrast comment. That's why I suggested pumping up that black outline around the letters. Seriously, trying filling it with white or a bright yellow. Something to pop it off the lava. It DOES get lost and you don't even realize there's a word there for a few seconds.
The Syringe
#15428 posted by gb on 2008/10/24 17:26:35
looked better.
The pink looked gay, but it also looked unique.

Spirit the old site looked much better in my opinion, or maybe i�m just used to�
Thanks for all the time you spent in your site!
The more important issue is to keep it alive!
Thanks
#15430 posted by Spirit on 2008/10/24 18:21:01
Yes, that it is.
I like the logo or I would not have used it. Maybe I will change back to the old one some day (by my own will) but for now it's going to stay.
That's Okay

That's okay. I have the wayback machine to send me to the old site and along with a loop of Barbra singing 'The Way We Were', I'll manage to get by.
BTW, if you have seen me sniffing around the site lately, I've been d/ling some levels I've preciously missed. Andrew you have an excellent level from 04 I played for the first time last night. The puzzles fit into
Quake without a problem, it takes a deft hand to do that right.
That's Not Right,

'preciously'? previously. Time to bring the katana back out, tummy is not going to like that.
