A few minor updates done this morning. Updated the header & Background to the central news section. A wee pic of Deathwing and a plan red fade so you can see the repeating of the red rust.
I will work on the Widgets also today.

OK.....I am finished with the front page and content pages. THOUGHTS?
I got rid of the red rust cos the repeating was to obvious. The new one repeats but looks better IMO.
I have Added Widget Headers and independant backgrouds for them so the repeating is better hit and added healerds for the central content of the main page and all sub pages.
All i need now is some new buttons to repalce the old LK theme blue ones.

Not sure Micki - can not see where you made change to background? See the header changes.
I loved the site as it was though. Really nice - the red totally grew on me.
Think I liked headers more before though.

Hit Ctrl and F5. The different will be very hard to see throught he fading over the central news but if you scroll al lthe way down tot he bottom of any page you will see it (yes the bottoms look ugly but who ever sees them
I changed the widget background from Red Rust cos a few people said they didnt like the obvious repetition. (I liked it myself) and I added headers as an afterthought to break them up a little. (ofc can be removed)
The widgets didnt have any headers before so I assume you mean you liked the central news headers??? (the ones i replacec with DW theme header)
I will reverse any changes not liked ofc except those old headers. They we Blue/Gothic and totally LK and out of place. So we can continue to search for a liked header or have non at all....BUT I will not put those f**king ugly things back on
I have to agree the whole things looks a little neat now with to well defined lines. I think the Widget headers can go!!
But people what about the background? Had the RedRust grown on you? Or do you prefer the plain Red with faded edges you see now?
Widgets headers?
1) Non like before
2) keep as is
3) new healders but not the crap ones there now
Central Healers?
1) Non
2) Keep the current
3) find a new one
[edit] Also i am noting that there are so many different elements to the page that at work (like i am now) the pages is built slowly layer by layer. (like porting into LK arena) is this happening to others or just me....its fucking annoying.

I actually started to like the rust.
The other changes seem fine. please switch back to rust for awhile.
I have no hassles with the page loading. Might be your network

LOL. Ok i know why it is building in layers. The website seems to be layering replacements over replacements over replacments. (the tool used to editing is new(ish) and not completly perfect)
I am going to blank everything off. Go back to default and then make all the changes in one go without layering or changing of my mind. (once we are happy with the finished article)

mikki it would be super if u could add a thing to the forum where it shows an icon where there are NO new posts, for example new posts now have a pink heart, perhaps a grey one for no new posts?
Just that, while i was applying to rmwp - there were grey swords, and now there is a void zone I kinda like it when theres something there.
And this is certainly not a criticism of your work so far, just a suggestion for something i'd like to see
Well done so far mate

I actually did a grey heart But it looked shit.
I am waiting for Loutres and Kesur to get off the lazy arses and do some work. Or Vix to pop through (the Heart is off one of Vix's)
Sadly i am just a facilitator of talents like i have said before. I have no talents myself

OK now I am being a wanker. The red site of today was awesome.
OK - so both are good.
I am happy whichever the majority chose. This (the rust) or the uber sexy red of today.
Nice mikki

here is the thing. At work with my monitor it looks great with RedRust. The contrast is allot lower so it really dark,
At home I hate it the background stands out to much and the repeating is to obvious.
