TitansGuru Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 Just go to the skin selection at the bottom and select Change Theme and select Titans Report. I am holding off on making it the default skin until I get the main home page finished. The forum section is almost 100%. The current default skin will remain active after this one becomes the default and you may continue to stick with it after it is no longer the default skin. Personally, I think it's the best one I've put out on here.The typography and overall look is a lot more professional than the current one. It is also built on this version of the message board so everything just works. NashvilleNinja, and Bink 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bink Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 It looks good! TitansGuru 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitansGuru Posted March 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 I did a quick workaround for the front page that should work on both layouts. It's not great but it will do for now. So, I will make this the default on a trial basis. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamalisms Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 Yeah, this looks good. TitansGuru 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrus Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 I think I love it. It was a bit of a shock at first, but it was almost immediately comfortable. The typography and text hierarchy is really dialed in. What's the font? TitansGuru 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitansGuru Posted March 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 Open Sans is what you are most likely getting. It's a Google font and can be found here: http://www.google.com/webfonts/specimen/Open+Sans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NashvilleNinja Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 It's very clean and streamlined. Very user/navigationally-friendly. If this new layout were a woman I'd want to make love to it. So sexy. Bink, and TitansGuru 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NashvilleNinja Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 I love the TR icons that are being used to indicate a thread that you've posted in and whether or not there are new posts. But do you think it would make more sense to use the solid navy blue icon as the one to indicate that a thread that you've been posting in has new posts instead of the one with the navy blue outline and white interior? Just thinking that from an intuitive point of view a person might naturally want to click on the navy blue icon. It's awesome either way, but just something I noticed. If that helps anything.

TitansGuru Posted March 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 That's something I went back and forth on. I ended up going with this way because I just thought the solid ones looked better. I may go with solid for every thread with an indicator dot on it when you post in it.

TitansGuru Posted March 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 Okay, so I just made something I think works better. Now means you commented in the thread. You'll have to refresh your forum view page to see it if you are still seeing the old one. Jamalisms, and NashvilleNinja 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NashvilleNinja Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 It's showing up. Nice work, man. Forum just keeps gettin' better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a Google font and can be found here: http://www.google.com/webfonts/specimen/Open+Sans Now I know why I like the new look so much - this is my go to font.

Stranger Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 It'll take some getting used to, but it's got a nice feel to it. I like that it's brighter, which makes it easier to see. I also like the online dot next to each users name. Keep up the good work! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's available in the skin selector. Stranger, NashvilleNinja, and Cyrus 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not bad, it gives a nice contrast to the rest of the colors. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
