Wow, the remake looks so awesome!! I'm even more impressed than I thought I would be.

So what's everyone's thoughts? Anything you don't like? What's your favorite new feature?

For me, I liked how the systems used to show a tiny picture of the console with the link and now it's just a grey box, but that's not a big deal really. At least it looks clean. My favorite new feature is definitely the Multitap, I love how it shows your friends icon and how recently they updated.

I'm going to donate next paycheck, Drumble's made the site very enjoyable to me and allowed me to make some really great friends. :pirate:

It's awesome, though I do wonder why Drumble *still* hasn't really made any improvements to friends lists. Why can't he make all your friends show up in a dropdown menu? I suggested that to a mod and she said that they would take note of it or something along those lines, about a year ago.

I also noticed they removed the console icons. Not sure why, but meh, it's not particularly important.

From the sound of the Changeloggery post, he's not planning to make a drop down list for all of the friends. However, you can reorganize them now, so if you have friends who don't log on much or something you can put them at the bottom. The top ~27 do show up in the drop down list under the "multitap" heading at the top.

The only thing that I don't like is the removal of the console images. Why did he do that? It's not like a tiny graphic would do wonders for the server load if it were what it is now.

It's like he woke up one day and discovered border-radius and box-shadow exists. On another note, my sidebar is appearing below all the other content - that shouldn't happen with a well-made site being viewed in a gecko browser.

He's also using inline CSS and JavaScript, along with HTML5 (something that won't be finalised for at least six years and something that has little to no advantage over regular HTML without use of the canvas element).

^Perhaps you should PM your criticism to him. He might actually take note of it (it seems like a site where the mods/admins actually listen to complaints).

It looks pretty cool, but it'll take a while to get used to the new look.
I really wish transparent GIFs would work with the user info box...

We're listening D:

@Enrei, I haven't tried that feature yet. If that's true, that could be a bit of a problem... :(
