Title: The Week of MLNO: Day 5 - Forum Layout Changes!
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on August 24, 2012, 12:29:30 pm
*Starts dragging pieces of the forum around* *Is tapped on the shoulder by a confused member* Huh? Oh, right! I guess I should do this first. =P

So! Last day of the Week of MLNO celebration, maybe! Well, we're bring the celebrations to a close... And with a bang! Everything has been building to this. The Nexus.

This will be a more modular design system; that allows us more flexibility with creating boards, by having 'base' boards for them all. If you've seen the MLNO Creative Society over the last little while, it's kind of like that, except some of the 'base' boards will have topics in them this time, unlike the Creative Society, which I'm pleased to announce will indeed be one of the base boards!

I am still working on updating the forum to reflect the new layout(And in fact, you know, getting the banner and favicon up, though the banner might take a while longer, unfortunately. >_^ I have an idea of what I want to do with it, I just have to put that into action. And the favicon is up, if you don't see it, refresh, clear your cache, or wait a few days. If you still don't see it, stop using IE 6. =P), but I just wanted to let you all know what was going on, so there isn't 1000 confused posts about it. =D

It's still in progress. Trust me, most of the things right now are because I haven't finished moving everything around, and needed temp places. =P

Plus, it features the return of two things that you might not have expected. ;)

And the other layout was any better for landscape? =P

I think I can guess to part of the reason, though; the sub-boards, right?

No, where the recent posts and recent topics used to be on either side of the screen, and now they're stacked.

Ah, OK.

I rarely ever use the main forum, so I guess I didn't realize that it changed :P
