Z, the new website design looks great, but I have a couple of suggestions. First, I'd resize the logo in the upper left, so it's the same height as the Nexuiz banner right beside it. Second, adding gradients to the text in the images will make the whole site feel more dynamic, and it's a very quick fix if you still have the source images. The last suggestion is to recode the forum's theme to make it match either the main site or the Alientrap site. Great work, regardless.

Also, I dunno if the New Pollution forums/wiki is based around Nexuiz enough to be considered a "Nexuiz website," but I wouldn't object if it was added to the list of related websites.

When i click the Forum link on the new front page I go to a page where only the Nexuiz related forums are visible, it took me a while to figure out there was more under the small arrows ;) Is this done not to confuse the newest of users ?

It is done to not overwhelm the new users. There was conversation of maybe expanding the ladder forums as well but it was decided they are not active enough yet and arrows would do well for the time being.

Nice new website, it's about damn time :)

My only crit is that clicking on the forum launches a new browser process. That is *very* annoying...

The last three links, forum, ladder and tournament are external links. I made them open in new windows under the assumption most people are using a tabbed browser. Tabbed browsers should open new windows (target="_blank") in a new tab.
