Playing around with a design

[Long]

Well I was bored, and had always wanted to create a template or design from the Longhorn "theme". And I ended up with this. The design tries to retain the same structure as the current Neowin but "build" on that to improve it. I haven't moved on to the "news" section of it yet, I'll do that tommorow.

Note: All icons are Crystal icons by everaldo. They are very nice icons and I do not withhold any credits for them.

It's really damn awesome, but I really don't like that icon set :/ :D

its ever so nice but ever so easy to knock together in photoshop! Ever so hard to put on the front page, get it working in all browsers... :p

Actually, it looks rather easy to get working properly. I would knock it up in HTML, but I've got work to be doing....

Any chance you can add some news items to full flesh out the page, Long?

Looks quite nice.

You can always slice it up in photoshop :)

I never did like those grey looking icons at the top. It looks like the same ones they are using in Aerobrowser. Other then the icons, I like the design.

[Storm]

Redmak, mate, can we use it ? :D

[vip]

it looks awesome! i personally would love to see it used, it doesnt look too hard to make compatible with all browsers.. neowin needs to be revamped IMO! and this design looks outstanding! .. how would the news look in it though ?

[configure Veteran]

I can do it but I don't know how standard compliant I can be :p

[vip]

only problem i see is .. where would the ads go ?? unless you make this like a subscription skin

[Storm]

I can do it but I don't know how standard compliant I can be :p

Yes do it :D

They could easily make space :shifty:

We can get all the die-hard compliance people from the Web forum to do that for us.

But ya, I wouldn't mind seeing that as a new design.

Neowin 4.0 is long overdue.... :yes:

Neowin 4.0 is long overdue.... :yes:

At least it's coming along man (Y)

[SMeK Veteran]

looks nice :)

i like the idea of having it for subscribers :yes:

[dL]

Looks nice. One suggestion, change the black to like the blue we're using (default). Then it should look sleeky!

[Colin-uk Veteran]

bit dark, but otherwise looks nice :)

[Storm]

Plz Gods, can we have this skin?

[Homer]

Holy **** that is hot. Stop asking for it guys, let him finnish it, perfect it and get into talks with the admins and see what happens.

I personally love that skin and would LOVE to see it as Neowin's defaul.t

[.KICK]

Very cool :cool:

[Ivand]

Looks very very nice IMO; let him finish the design and then let's start begging the gods (admins) to use it :D :drool:
