AP4 - Future The Next!

Postby Matt » Sun Nov 25, 2007 1:51 pm

Airsoft Pacific has just undergone a major face-lift. I hope you like the look of the new site. It's been in the works for almost 3-4 months and I think it should be a drastic improvement for usability and load times. A few changes have been implemented:

1. First of all, the new design! Everything on the site can now be reached from the fly-out menus at the top of the screen. You don't have to go back to the homepage to see the rest of your options.

2. Revamped Galleries. The Rate my AEG and user galleries should now be more accessible with search, quicker placement of comments and ratings and an easier to find link directly to your own personal gallery. (Did you even know you can have your own gallery?)

3. New Sponsorship programs launched! People have been asking and asking about advertising on AP or promoting services. Finally we have a clear and concise package for them that should both help them promote their services while still not being a burden to the members of AP. With their support, we can continue to grow AP's servers and accommodate our traffic and features. For more information about that service, check here.

4. The new AP logo is being used throughout the site. I have replaced our link buttons with new ones for those of you who use them to link AP. Thanks!

And that's not all, we've still got more updates coming down the pipe. If you notice any problems with the new site or experience any difficulties, please let me know. Thanks!

I liked it better last night when I refreshed the new posts and it went to the default phpbb look. I was really confused. So I yelled at tool, and he explained it.

Its going to take a bit of getting used to but that wont be too difficult.

I already had the AP window open and it was the old style, I hit refresh and this is what I see


looks damn good :D

I was thinking the same thing about the post indicators, they aren't standing out very well. I'll look at replacing that with something more obvious. Or just bring back the orange and use it on the grenades.
