So we've been kicking around ideas for the total website redesign and decided that the forums needed work first. I looked at it on a smart phone and it looked like total garbage -- completely unusable. :(

Here are some interactive mockups of the design that will begin being implemented this weekend. There are logged in and logged out views.

These are built to be forward-compatible, but should gracefully degrade for older versions of Internet Explorer. If you are using Chrome of FireFox, try resizing your browser window. The design will change based on your browser width, replicating what you would see on a smartphone or tablet. for smaller resolutions, the menu structure changes and for mobile devices, the menu changes to a more mobile-friendly design. Try it out on your phone/tablet and see how it looks!

The design is made to scale down to a very, very small width so you could theoretically be reading the forums at work with a small window in the corner of your screen while having other stuff taking up the majority of your screen.

The ingame and public site redesigns will follow the same sort of idea and methodology. We wanted something far more minimalist and I think we finally got it where we want it :p

I'm hoping to implement most of the changes this weekend, so if you have any feedback please provide it soon.
Thanks
