New website design for our World of Warcraft Guild ‘Reservoir Dogcows’.

http://www.dogcows.net/

Moof! :)

Update: They changed web engine to different one than Geeklog and is now different looking. You can visit my mirrored site with full design at
http://homepage.mac.com/adambetts/website/dogcows
If you’d like to see what forum look like, click all links with (<–Working Link) tag. Note: this is a fake site for design preview purpose so you'll see a lot of incomplete and non-working elements.

Jan and I’ve made several adjustment to the design and it should address some of the biggest complaints such as IE compatibility, navbar with current page status (note the blue pin underneath Themes), and several others.

I added a corkboard and darker blue grid to improve the contrast of the design. You can feel free to play with the pins but just be careful with them. You know, they could kill baby kittens :(

The site will hopefully be ready by tonight.

They’re finished except for the white paper on the top of wood box. I’ll think of something to put on that card soon. Maybe a vote check list with two contenders: Aqua and Luna :)

When the contest is over, the site will revert back to old design but it looks so dull comparing to the new one. I’m going to try and improve the old one by adding subtle textures, etc.

I’m thrilled to hear that I’m one of the top five who won the contest. I’ll give it to my bro since I have already purchased one for myself.

For those who don’t know the rule of the contest:

You’ll need to “Photoshop” (and by that we mean “digitally edit”) Halo’s Master Chief on vacation. 5 winners will get a free copy of Halo for Mac

The other four winners submitted in funny graphics. I especially like the one of Master Chief bungee-jumping. Very clever and simple.

I’ve completed single player mode (Halo) and enjoyed some parts of it. Most of the gameplays was too repetitive for my taste. The level designs (especially structures and textures) were mediocre at best. One of their strong areas is character design although I don’t quite understand why they designed that alien midget that ran like the boy in ‘Home Alone’. Halo’s Multiplayer, on the other hands, is packed with fun! I totally love the idea of sharing the vehicle with several other players.
