Trinca & Spy, get a room! :) 

willem, you're kidding, right? RIGHT? 

thanks dude, very nice of you. Willem, comments appreciated, I guess my tastes lean a bit further towards the web 2.0 thing than most here, but that's ok, I don't take any of the snarkyness to heart. Iterative design, baby, change it until it works. The post above is genuinely rude though, my opinion of that guy just fell through the floor. 

why would i be nice to you :P

Design isn't taking a bunch of all-the-rage-in-2003 elements (gradients, rounded corners, beige, gray, lower case, icons, taglines like that, ...) and replacing individual elements of the old design without consideration.

That said, i like the header with just a plain bg and the new crate, which is the thing with the most faithful 'redesign' imho. And everything which is just the old func with moderately larger sized typo.

The rest.. throw it away and hope it never returns.

But I think Starbuck was joking? And oh! will I feel bad that I said this if he doesn't. 

no worries megaman. 

been meaning to link this for a while... Have you guys seen the "make video game covers classy!" craze that's going round? Basically means making covers for games in the style of a classic novel, etc.

That's all from some thread on something awful, some of the stuff there is really fantastic. 

maybe we should petition to make that WoW cover official. 

those are awesome! we need a graphic designer to step up for quake though! :D

also yeah, i lol'd at the WoW one. :P 

yeah, for sure! Check out the SA thread if you haven't already though, there are a few quake ones but they're pretty basic and crap. 10 years of playing this damn game and I still can't think of anything clever :P 

hehe, i don't really know. i thought he was, then i thought he wasn't, and now i'm not so sure ;) 

Those are great. Reminds me of a similar "make 60s-era book covers for modern movies" gallery here:

What's a good linux/bsd Quake engine port?

was slashdotted when I looked the other day, and now when I go there I find the interview has been pulled. Did anyone read this (or watch it if it was a video interview) and were there any pictures of Doom 4?
