Glad you like the changes, folks!

Personally, I am particularly fond of having the Support section. It's about time people could be forwarded to planeshift.it/policies.html instead of being referred to the "cryptic" forum :) Plus we now have the cool Fan Art section, so there's more motivation for you guys to show off your lovely work. Post in the forums, and if we really like it we'll kidnap it away and showcase it to the world ;) There are also a couple of new images under Concept Art. And thanks to Aendar and Sangwa, the Guild page under the Community section finally makes sense as well.

Thank you all for the lovely comments :)

I think karyuu should be hand fed cookies and worshipped for her awesome work in this community and the website is just another thing under her belt that shows how dedicated she is.

 :sorcerer: I love the site karyuu! User friendly, all the information you can get on planeshift, and it looks fantastic. It is a great improvement of what was. You have out done yourself and for this I applaud you.

I think the screenshots around the site are really great, they make the game look so pretty! :)

Quote from: Nurahk
I also look forward to the day I have something better to do with my time... :)

Like play with monkeys for real? Karyuu doesn't like monkeys <.< So you can't join the fanclub. :P

Wooo hooo no monkeys in the fanclub!? I am in!

I'll also commend the site redesign...quite a nice update.   :)

The hilarious thing is that the design will only get better and better as the commmunity grows while the game improves by leaps and bounds.  Just think of how much more there'll be to draw from come Happy New Year '08.
Here's hoping I can be of some help to steer the game towards a better time had by all. Cheers!

* Peacer burns the monkeys and forces Nurahk to join the fanclub with Peacer

I've looked how this has changed over the last few months and I like the way the site is set up, centered and designed. It's easy navigatable and there's no more flash \o/.
Good with all the new sections added (I'm thinking of taking some pretties screenshots when I get time :p, but I have to give Miadon some first xD.) I'll be exploring this a bit more :)

And I'm going to a party today so no screenshots for either of you :p

That is an amazing improvment. Brilliant.
I suggest the statue of Laanx gets turned into a statue of Parallo <3. An NPC could never replace the huge hole he left in my heart when he died  :'(

Congrats for the work!

Just one comment: it is extremely heavy to download (even if I have a super duper connection at work). It took really a lot of time if it is not cached. Maybe some image can be lighter?

Another comment is that I think the download link should not be in the menu under account. I would create an entry on its own since it is one of the things players ask most "where can i download"? and that is not on the first page and not clear in the menu

It surely is beautiful, I got a very pleasent suprise when I was at work showing the IT guy what a web redirection was (hes not the best at IT :P ) I just picked that site because I dont really remember many ;)

As for it being a little on the heavy side, yeah, even at work it was a little harsh on the download side. Wont be visiting it from home im afraid. although i can sit at work and go 'ooooooohhhhh' :D

It was loading quite quickly when I was uploading to my host (Xordan \o/) while testing. I suppose I can try seeing if some images can be made smaller.

Another comment is that I think the download link should not be in the menu under account. I would create an entry on its own since it is one of the things players ask most "where can i download"? and that is not on the first page and not clear in the menu

Way ahead of you :] Did you notice this part?
