News New Homepage/Review DB Navbars

Adam · 06-14-2007, 01:50 PM

Having a bit of spare time, I decided to work a bit on the homepage as well as on the Lens Review Database.

What I've done is redesigned the basic navbars of both of the above pages, and I've added a welcome message to the Lens Review Database. The backend changes weren't as easy as you'd think since the review DB is not fully integrated with the forum variable-wise.

New Homepage Navbar

Previous Homepage Navbar

New Lens Review Database Welcome Message

Old Lens Review Database Navbar

If you have any further ideas or suggestions, don't hesitate to post! Enjoy!

To make it easier to find individual user's photos, I have now also added a new colum to our Member List!

cool nice changes. if you ever want a moderator/web savvy person to help you out, I'm superb at css/xhtml, pretty familiar with php, and have used vBulletin. Primarily a graphic designer though I suppose.

Nice work Mo, thank you!!

Only slightly competent with css/xhtml here, and lost in php, but still know enough to admire what you've achieved here at PF.com.

By the way, what job do you have that allows all of this free time?

Thanks again for the great comments!

Isn't PentaxForums.com worthy of receiving a few hours of work every couple nights? I don't get new ideas for the site that often, but once they pop in my head, I follow through until they're complete!
