Also, before you complain about the colors: when I get a chance to work on the darkblue theme the site will match with it if its chosen ;)

I'm not really liking the Hot Links bar. I don't think it looks too hot. Otherwise I can't really think of anything to complain about.

I think Portal is a good game that really brings out the HL2 engine's power.


*laughs*

Anyway! lol

I typically hate portals personally... unless they have some hardcore stuff to look at (not pr0n, freaks lol)... Actually, IMO portals for game making communities should host a wide variety of information on stuff; like member of the month congratsnessess and popular fan game information, etc; I think that'd be neat :P

The portal looks cool but it looks a bit too skinny (I use 1024x768). Other than that, it looks fine but the banner could changed to the Kokiri Theme's banner though to suit the appropriate style.

The banner may just be temporary.

Honestly: I think it's unnecessary. The wiki is a good idea though.

We'll need a main page of sorts, if we manage to fill it with content that is. I guess it all depends on how well we do/dont integrate the wiki with SMF.

I am not a portal person, we discussed that matter. The portal needs to serve a point, if it just gives quick links and serves no other purpose that can all be done on the forum index page.

The Portal could hold useful links, site news (they could be shown on the site too), and finally "Affiliates".

Sigh... After all the designs and plans and whatnot we've been through, after the years of development... it's not really that impressive.


I mean, even Dayjo's draft version looks better than it:


But, then again, the site staff we've had here have been the most disorganised team I've ever come across, with everyone with any skill working alone and not together, so I'm glad that a site is up at least, no matter what it looks like.

A good way to come up with a new layout is to look at some of the other Zelda sites. Some of them use some unique styles such as Zelda Dimension, Zelda Dungeon, and Zelda Elements. I like how themes work with the portal now.

Kirby's portal was a work up he tossed up in about 20 minutes if not less. It was an old portal. We're just trying to setup foundation. Most anything the development team 'worked on' is long gone by now, with the exception of Windy's site he made a few months back.

The events team *WAS* way more unorganized.

I recoded it from scratch, actually. To add what is in Dayjo's layout wouldn't take long. I just made the thing :P

I don't really like it- the banner doesn't fit in with the rest of the site, really. Why not just use the same one as the forum?

Now you're thinking with portals.
