new look

LJ's new Xcolibur design is in beta test now.

you may turn it on/off here for testing. I tried it under IE, Opera, Netscape, KDE Konqueror, Chimera, Camino, Safari, Mozilla, Skate, Gzilla... and even on PalmOS WebPro and EPOC Opera. It looks pretty much the same everywhere. Because everything is CSS-based, it seems to load much faster.

where do you find time to test em on every platform? you can beta-test my warcraft iii maps... lol...

[tank_boy]

:) i have 3 computers on my table. i tested it on all at the same time in different browsers. no more than 5 minutes in total. haha.... warcraft III... where do you find time to create those!?!

[eyean]

hehehe. one hour before sleep time is enough for a sub-quest... it's all routines anyway... the one i'm currently making has more than 1,000 generated variables and close to 3,500 doodads... hehehe...

it's a quest. i'm calling it 'episode 1 : the winter of discontent'

hehehe.

looks nice.
do you like it?

[tank_boy]

hmmm.... it's kind of boring, but fast. Instead of the column at the left with all the commands, there is a comfortable menu. But I liked it the old way. :)

its plain, thats why i like it.. not too much going on.

but yah... its nice not having those things on the left side.

[tank_boy]

there was a top menu bar, back in 2000: very old LJ layout. :)

[tyarky]

cool!

[tank_boy]

hey, do you remember the old days?

[tyarky]

hehe.. i remember that page.

that beta thing messed up my layout for awhile.
i clicked on Manage->Customize.
i think i clicked on Change.
i couldn't bring my layout back from the old menu.
i had to go to the beta page again to change it back.

[tank_boy]

is it really lost?

[blackturtleneck]

hot DAMN! I like it. It seems much more organized upon first glance. I'll delve further into this in my journal once I've gone through all the site features as a beta tester. Thanks for the link!

[tank_boy]

be careful with testing... read Pat [tyarky]'s comment just above yours.

[blackturtleneck]

yup. same happened to mine. i'm not too worried as my last template was starting to get old. Time for a refreshing new design. But first: Paying work. Hope you're having a good day Beni!

[tank_boy]

mostly, I read my friends' LJs on my friends page. That's why I sometimes miss changes in their layout. But I always liked your layout. hehe, and the new one matches your blue/green hair :)
