...I wanted a break from complicated graphics Not sure if I like it enough to code it yet :/ If I do there'll be more padding on the forums though

I think that the part that folds under in the h2 and submenu should be darker rather than lighter. I think the borders on the forums/categories should be thinner (1 px) and slightly darker, other than that I like where this is going and this color scheme always rocks

Looks better now! Although I'm not a fan of those huge icons

Haha, not a huge fan myself. They just seem too different... I'll change those links to something a bit more appealing/responsive either next time I update the print or when/if I code it.

It's certainly looking good so far. I enjoy the placement of the submenu with the welcome message, but the transition becomes a bit awkward with the large, uppercase submenu links and the small, regular case welcome message. I'd consider at least making them the same size, if not the same case as well. I agree that the large icons for ACP and RCP are a bit odd - I like them as they remind me of web applications, but I feel you could integrate them a bit better. If they were smaller that might help, I'd also make them lighter so they don't stand out quite as much. I'm thinking those icons in the avatar area are a bit scrunched together - what would each icon do? I believe it'd be worthwhile to remove any that don't have a purpose. I'm definitely a bigger fan of the first category table layout, but I think the forum area could use more work. I'd make the forum name a bit bolder, have all of your descriptions run on the same line (instead of breaking the line after a sentence), make the description text probably a pixel or two smaller, and perhaps increase the leading on the description text a tad. After that all I have is a PNG to show you some margin alignments that you can consider (it may be worth it to look in to using guides - I've been using them religiously lately (hit CTRL + R to bring up your rulers, click and drag on a ruler to bring a guide out, hit CTRL + H to toggle the display of guides)). Again, definitely an excellent design.

Beautiful bunch of CC, thanks! I really don't have any better ideas for ACP/Reports at the moment. I'm not sure if I'd rather just make them smaller and position them somewhere else (but where!?) or go in a different direction completely. The icons in the avatar area are, respectively, Messages, Profile, Edit Profile & Logout. The aim there is to have it show the text at the top of the avatar on hover (as shown in the next update). I could maybe get rid of the 'Profile' button and just have the avatar linking there - it's not really necessary at all since the welcome text has the same effect. The forums are really bothering me, actually. I know they need something more but I can't put my finger on it. Maybe it'll be best for me to change these when coding, since the way I've done it makes it a pain in the ass to adjust in Photoshop... having to re-create noise effects for any additions has made changing the height of them a much bigger task than it should be. Anyway, I've taken your feedback on board and bolded the name some more, as well as decreasing the size of the description text. Thinking I might go for a different (but similar) font for the forum names since they just aren't appealing to me at all. As for the margins, thanks for that. Very helpful ![]() Updated image attached. |

i like the topmenu idea but i have a question. is the report cp in a black box because its a hover or are you doing blue, black, blue, black? if its the hover then i think that the blue bar over the links should change to black when hovered along with the boxes. |
