Presenting the new Neowin Logo


Recommended Posts

I have a question or two about the new design, in the origional thread, the new theme was going to be fully css for layout, no tables, is this still the case.

Also, is the site going to be xhtml strict, and if it is, will it be sent as such (application/xhtml+xml) to browsers that supports it (gecko based, opera, webkit based, etc.)?

although, if it's one of those things that if you told me, you would have to kill me, i understand. :D

Oooh... I'll have to throw that question over to Timdorr and Toxikk when they get on. ;) While we're all working together, they know more about what it's all being coded in. :yes:

@timsweb - I'm actually thinking about that... since the forum themes will have to change to reflect the rest of the site, I am thinking about that. Although I *really* do like the current badges. If there is a change, it might just be minor. Not for sure yet.

I'm assuming transitional XHTML (since we're transitioning :p ), and not application/xhtml+xml. There's no real benefit to it anyways, other than saying we look cool...

Well I, like many other people here, thought "Urrgh" when I saw it. Personally, i hated it. But then that was looking at it at this huge scale. When resized to the sort of size you're likely to see it at, it actually looks all right. I'm reserving judgement until the final design of course, I just worry because it does seem somewhat backwards in the current trend of design on the web nowadays.

That said of course, I have no doubt it's going to look amazing in its new home. Bring on October :D

well, when sending it as application/xhtml+xml (with the mime type, any version of xhtml, doesnt have to be sctrict) the browser can use a quicker xml parser (cause it doesnt have to look for all the bugs and malformed html, etc.) so apparently the page renders quicker

    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Epic Games is rolling out the latest major update to Unreal Engine 5 today, and at the same time, the company also dropped some information on the next-generation version of the product, Unreal Engine 6. This was already revealed a few weeks ago alongside the new Rocket League upgrade reveal. The company says it is combining the features of Unreal Engine and Unreal Editor for Fortnite to create this new version of its popular media creation tool. On top of creating entire games, the new engine will also focus on letting developers operate large-scale live service titles more easily, whether by shipping content into their own ecosystems or into Fortnite. The use of large language models is also mentioned here, with Epic saying it will be a core part of the engine. "We see LLMs, generative AI models, and tools like Claude and Codex playing a central role in helping you build content faster while maintaining the creative control you need," adds the company. Here is the rundown of what's new about version 6 of Unreal Engine: With all these changes to the programming model, portability upgrades, and generative AI integration, Epic says the new version of the engine will "change a lot about how games are made." The company aims to ship Unreal Engine 6 into early access in late 2027, with a full release planned for 12-18 months later. Epic Games also dropped a lengthy blog post about the new Unreal Engine 5.8 update for game developers over here. The release is focused on delivering better performance, customization, and streamlined workflows for development teams. This will be the final major update for this version of the engine before Epic switches to focus fully on Unreal Engine 6's early access launch.
    • Watch Louis Rossmann's recent experience on YouTube about trying to get a warranty replacement from Samsung. It's crazy.
    • That is the thing, how many of these people don't realise they are using AI? If they use Google Search they have no choice but to use AI. So yes, maybe half of American adults do use and I expect a lot of Uk adults do to, but I bet most of them don't realise it. Myself, i avoid the rubbish.
    • They use FREE AI. They aren't paying for this meme-generating slopware...
    • Gotta' buy that there Rufus guy a beer if I ever meet him. He makes good stuff.
