I'd like some feedback on the new look HQ i have been working on with a graphic designer for a few days.. This is our near final design, it will of course have many more areas on the homepage to show off whats going on..
I hope you like the ideas i have. I still need to change up a few things, but after that i can begin the huge job of coding it. When i say coding, first i need to convert the PSD (photoshop) file into html/css. Then i will place the skin on HQ and update all the pages.. What a job ahead huh..
Well, show your support and return to the site daily and say hi! If you see something cool on the net just post it up.
You will notice the new site has a COM CENTER (for friends), popup login modal and it will also contains loads of the latest JQUERY effects and cool scripts to save time on loading.
Please leave all feedback below.. If you hate it fair enough, just be honest since I have been working on this for quite a while.
thanks to all who reply. It will give me more incentive to update.

I really like it it has that Xbox feel but not too bright or not too dark.

Looks good Hobbs. I never wanted to be rude in the past, but I'm just saying that the site had WAY to much clutter/features. But now this new site design looks very well done. Keep it up and hope to see the new look in '13.

The new design is looking to be a STRIKE! In bowling that is hehe. I think it will be great for new visitors as it has a clean and easy to use look to it.

thanks for the feedback so far everyone.. It's been great and can only get better with everyone's comments.
Here is our first mockup of the games, news, images, achievements pages etc.. I still have to work on tutorials, homebrew and all our additional areas like downloads.
Once i get a basic layout done for a few pages i can then just recode those pages over and over and tweak them for each area..
The forums is going to be a big big job.
Enjoy the latest attachment and check the first post in this thread as well!

Love it! I like the way everything looks separated and the way the dates stand out. Looks easier to navigate too. Great job _________________________________________________________

I really like those beta previews mate.
I believe it's in the right track, HQ really needs a facelift like that.
Kept up the good work and kept us updated _________________________________________________________
