For sometime I have been working on a ROD re-design to try and freshen up the place. Some of you might not notice much of a difference (thats a good thing right?) because I have tried my best to keep the same color scheme everyone is accustomed to.

Some of the new features.

Collapsible nodes on the main forum page. This allows you to hide forums that you might not necessarily want to see

Simply click on the "negative" sign and see the results for yourself. To go back to the original setting, simply click it again.

Collapsible sidebar

Click the button that is to the left of the "post new thread" button. This will remove the sidebar from your view. To some the sidebar is a distraction, now you can remove that distraction.

Jump to top:

As you scroll down the page you will now see a blue arrow appear on the bottom right of your screen. Clicking this will automatically jump you back to the top of the page without having to scroll.

Offsite menu:

This is what I am really excited about if you use the mobile version of ROD as much as I do.

In mobile view, you will now see a "menu" button instead of a full menu. Pressing menu brings up a full menu for you to easily navigate. The new mobile version brings makes surfing on your mobile device ALOT easier to navigate.

I hope you guys enjoy the new changes.

Just so you know - from a usability and feature standpoint, this site rocks.

It's the people who make it what it is but the forum itself deserves some recognition.

Thanks dude.

As complicated as the site is for the first time user, it is actually the most user friendly once you get accustomed to the navigation.
 
I love the fresh look!

Now it's time to explore a little...

Nice. Very clean, very flat, very modern. Not a huge fan of the serif font, but that's just me. Overall A+, would forum again.

Yeah, I agree the font isn't my favorite. But that's like complaining about the mole above Cindy Crawford's lip. :LOL:

well we can change that.. come up with a few suggestions and I will change it.

I am ALWAYS open to suggestions. Consider this just a rough draft. Together we can tweak the hell out if it.

The font in user profiles is excellent - Open Sans, one of my favorites

Ooh, bring Open Sans into the posts. That's a sexy font, and you already have it in the sidebars and whatnot.
