    Gateworld.net and the Rumored New Site Design

    It was mentioned about a month ago that some changes to the website will be heading our way.
    I was wondering when are we going to see these changes?

    IMO, gateworld has sticked to its current design for quite a while (since the beginning? Correct me if I am wrong...).
    Time for a change...

    Oh yeah, I've been lurking around here for some time now, but now I've registered.
    Hi all!

    These smilies must go. ugh.

      *Rubs eyes* A new member who's first act WASNT "I have an idea about the ninth chevron/furlings" Say it aint so! FatalDreams, welcome to the forum and thank you for giving me hope

      There is a site where you can see how old websites looked way back when, i checked Gateworld out, it was pretty cool! Cant wait to see how the new look will, erm well, look
      Equality is not a concept. It's not something we should be striving for. It's a necessity. Equality is like gravity. We need it to stand on this earth as men and women. And the misogyny that is in every culture is not a true part of the human condition. It is life out of balance, and that imbalance is sucking something out of the soul of every man and woman who is confronted with it.

          This is probably our third major design in six years. We've also done some incremental but significant changes over the years.

          There is a major, site-wide redesign in the very earliest of stages. It may or may not be completed in 2006 -- too early to tell.

            All I ask is that you'll go the the XHTML/CSS way and follow the W3C standards...
            It will only benefit you, and your users.

              I've visited several forums and I like the design and operation of this one. Don't mess around with it too much!

                I second this.
                Joseph Mallozzi -"In the meantime, I'm into season 5 of OZ (where the show takes an unfortunate hairpin turn into "the not so wonderful world of fantasy")"

                ^^^ Kinda sounds like seasons 9 and 10 of SG-1 to me. Thor, ya got Aspirin?

                AGateFan has officially Gone Fishin (with Jack, Sam, Daniel, Teal'c) and is hoping Atlantis does not take that same hairpin turn.

                    I like the site the way it is too, but I'm never one to object to a snazzy new look. You could say this design has had a ton of stuff cramed in it that might deserve their own tabs (like the blogs for instance). I look forward to it if it's in the works!!

                        The current design is defintely a good one... However, the amount of information that is now stored and displayed to the user is more than in the past.

                        Better sectioning and a more useful use of the screen real estate could be a nice touch as it'll actually free up some space and not be as cramped as it is now.

                        And please, while at it, replace the <mod snip> smilies of this forum!

                          I thought Darren meant the site, not the forum, but I may be wrong. And FatalDreams, they are the basic V-Bulletin smilies, and there are other smilies, you just need to learn how to use them

                            Hm, something else I have noticed (which is quite amusing).
                            There are <i> tags in the browser title! what the heck...

                              They have changed. Everytime they change I can't view. When they change they upgrade and when they upgrade my MSNTV doen't work anymore. Then I have to complain with the MSNTV Tech. guys and then I have to wait for my upgrade then I get it and then Gateworld changes again.
