PSX Fanatics New Design ... Love it? Hate it? :)

January 10th, 2002, 14:28

Well I have redesigned PSX Fanatics again.

I just want some opinions on what you think of it, but first let me mention some things before people start complaining.

I know it's not flashy, and super cool looking. I just want everyone to remember that it's an information driven website. So now that you have that in your mind lets move onto the next thing.

Same goes for the last sample, it is doesn't have a lot of graphics and stuff like that. People come for news, information, and support. So I need to make it as fast as I can, but also make it easy on the eyes so they can be relaxed while they surf the site.

I also wanted to make it clean and professionaly done, probably didn't come too close but it I like the end result. I know most people will not think it's the coolest looking site, or best design ever. I just want to know if you think I did good on what I set out on achieving, which was a clean, fast, and easy to navigate site. I also did some code cleanup so it should work better in other browsers such as Mozilla, and Netscape. Should load a little faster too, but it is hard to tell on my cable modem.

Thanks in advance for your opinions

I like it...easy to read, and a nice color scheme. Loads up quick too

I love psxfanatics whatever form it is in.

Just saw the site.
Looks a bit faster.
Nice colour scheme.

Lets see how it figures out in next few days.

The color scheme is MUCH better...I abesolutely detested the last one.

a little quicker to nivgate but still could be better.

Actualy there has been a link for all the compat reports on the site for awhile ... on the left menu where it says flatbased list click that link to see the complete list. Here is the ePSXe one for example - http://www.psxfanatics.com/modules.p...q=CompleteList

I think this is what you mean

doh .. you edited your post while I was making mine

liquid · January 10th, 2002, 16:01

I just noticed it don't know why I didn't notice it before?

is it possible to put that link inside the compatibility list page (where you have everything grouped alphabetically at the top)
since it was the first place I figured it would be.
guess I'm strange

I thought you might've changed the colors.

but still, a nice, clean, fast site.

the 'Message Board' link on the top navigation bar is wrong.

Nice design. Gave up with dark, black, colours

yeah I knew when I was making it that the message board would not be completed so I left the link blank ... working on the board now.

Looks very professtional, like a bussiness website, but far better. Besides, looks very "clean" too, i like it.

Better color scheme. Since there doesn't seem to be much else new, I will leave my comments at that.
