Just a quick update: we have a new Edgeworks front page. This new page displays news from each of our productions separately, and includes a short description for newcomers. The newest post from any of our sections will be posted in its entirety, followed by three posts from each section. The section headers are also links to the different site sections, allowing non-regulars to more easily find their favorite series.
Also, please note: this design isn't final. We will be making a few adjustments and fixes in the coming days, but we thought we'd open it up as a sort of public beta while we tweak it. Please feel free to share your thoughts (and any bugs you might notice) in the comments thread. -------------------- Thanks to Sneaky and SquattingB for the awesome avatar!

I personally don't use the front page, aside from checking out the updates you guys make. I tend to use the back door (Bookmark direct to forum). But it's still awesome. Nice job.

I really like it. I always portal to the front page as I like to see all the news in one place and now it is far easier!

Looks very awesome, useful, shows way more news now!
Couple of things, what would the "box'o'news" look like if it was above the current news on the main page? Secondly, are the other pages: Codex, Heretic, Vox main pages going to also have that box? -------------------- "If you break something that wasn't broken, truly you have realized that you have screwed up something...then you need to fix it...so what's the point of all of that? Well some say it builds character, I say...it builds ideas for when you are bored."
I was trying to come up with something very witty, smart, and exciting about this signature...what I found...well...let's just say that my test subjects are going to be okay. Then I decided that I could make a .gif and animate it! Poor Jimmy...I forgot that flashing multiple lights like that could cause a seizure....okay well then next I decided that I would write a very long paragraph, but out of my laziness I couldn't bring myself to |

The other sections will not, because Codex fans don't necessarily need to know what's going on with VP. Edgeworks is the front page of the entire site, and it contains all the subsections within it, so it includes all the news from all the different sections. It's also nice as a primer, to show Edgeworks newbies what we've got to offer right when they come to the site. -Alexander Winn Nerrolken -------------------- Thanks to Sneaky and SquattingB for the awesome avatar!

True, okay, but I stand by what I said, "awesome". How long did it take to write the programing for it, because that has to be a lot of work right? (I know for me it would take a while)

(I know for me it would take a while) Not too long. I've been learning a lot about PHP by working on the site, especially the VP section, so I knew what I needed to do. It probably took me an hour or two. -Alexander Winn Nerrolken -------------------- Thanks to Sneaky and SquattingB for the awesome avatar!
