Was hoping to get some feedback on a (non-mybb) design I've been working on.

That looks great! Is that your work or a collab of the team?


Here's what the Modogodo crew has been working on (me)..lol

Haven't really figured out what to do with the forumbit, if anyone has any ideas, that'd be great.

Just me, unfortunately we aren't using it. But here's the final I ended up with:

Re: Your design,

Looks like Dietary Gaming to me, but imo better. I like the soft/light colors and the way you organized it, hopefully the sidebar will get user info as well?

Yes, the sidebar will get user info but...

I don't understand how you could possibly think they look alike..

I was just thinking more along the lines of the forumbit, I didn't mean anything by it.

It's good work. ^.^

Oh ok, understandable. I was awestruck on how they looked similar. I mentioned before though the forumbit was only temporary while I create a layout I like. I've gone through a lot trying to decide. Forumbits are always the hardest .

Thank you though

I finally got around to doing something semi-presentable. I initially started off with basing it off of my personal blog, hence the similarities.

Keep in mind that it's a work-in-progress and is just a coded mock up of the general direction that I'm going with it (and the last post arrows are not aligned, I know).

Now that I look at it again, it feels way too raw to show right now. But I typed this up already and I'm open to suggestions!

EDIT: I also have to figure out how to make the font look decent in Chrome. It looks great in FF and IE, but horrible in Chrome (you can see the same font, live, on my blog).

Dots indicate a new reply. The others you should know. Going to change the poll topic to display a poll icon alongside the rest of the small symbols.

Looks really good Tecca. I quite like it.

For your font issue I would try including the svg first. Here are some other tips.

Another good idea is to include this text shadow.

text-shadow: 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.01);

Too read this article http://blog.typekit.com/2011/01/26/css-p...rendering/

Ah, thanks for that, Jason!

I tinkered with it a bit and this seems to work best. At least for the font that I'm using.

text-shadow: 0 0 1px rgba(51,51,51,0.2);

For Chrome only, since it makes everything slightly bold-looking in other browsers:

@media screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio:0) { 
    body {text-shadow: 0 0 1px rgba(51,51,51,0.2);}
}

It's still slightly off, but it's not noticeable unless you're really trying to compare (or have that weird attention to detail that I do that comes down to pixels).

I'll look more into this as well to see if I can find other solutions.

EDIT:

Got the quick reply coded: http://i.imgur.com/Uy8bgmQ.png

I'm going to do non-js styled checkboxes and radio buttons.

Yet unfinished (need to change editor's images), but the concept is there. Using a custom version of SCEditor.

Wowww ...

Where do I put my money guv?
Looks amazing! You should look at doing paid theme work.

Anyone have any ideas for a welcome block? I'd like to have it on the sidebar.

I still don't really understand losing like 30% of the page width to that menu. And the footer seems really out of place – why an image?
