Hey all!

First time owner, long time Admin here. I'm willing to get my feelings hurt and take in any feedback you might have for the new site.

It's not perfect. I wish I could figure out how to exclude sections from the News page. It would be much cleaner if I could. For example, every video I want to add to the video section using the layout that is there (which is why I want the section rather than just a category search) shows up on the main page too. Which stinks if it's following an article it is featured in. As you'll see..

Clearly I need a logo - but that's a low priority considering the uphill battle I already have ahead of me. B2G is the project name, so when it changes - so unfortunately does my URL.

But with that said, I've worked pretty hard on this thus far, and willing to hear any thoughts. VB 4.2..

Thanks!

Nothing? :(

It's perfect, I knew it!

It's actually pretty good. Maybe make a logo that's 'tighter' and lose some of the space you have under the leaderboard ad. Otherwise it's looking dandy. You have bright 'accents', a pleasing colour theme, nice header.

Hey thanks for the reply! So make the header overall thinner.. I could dig that for sure. I really want to do a proper logo but the project name could change at any point (which sucks) so I guess I'm going to wait on that. I could certainly stand to do SOMETHING though. Perhaps a nicer font, or just smaller and less logo wanna be-ish and more of just.. the title.

Anyway yeah, thanks for the feedback!

Alright, I cut 35px from under the leaderboard ad. Was that about what you were thinking?

..Also changed the font style of the 'logo' and gave it a transparent B2G home screen background. While far from perfect, it's better than it was.

Thanks again, I like it better like this. (I think anyway. Tryin to decide if the picture in the logo is too much, makes it too busy up there.. )
