    2. i like the header :)
    3. i like how the sections are separated from each other
    4. i like the way the bottom of their site looks
    5. i like the color scheme (ours is ok with the blue and the grey but i think a brighter or darker cooler would look better...im just not a big fan of greys and blue i guess :))

    I don't like how narrow it is. half my screen is going unused. Did they program it for 640x480 only or something?

    1) Wait til we get our header up, either today or tomorrow according to Steve. Also i looked at how the forum software seperated the topics, and quite frankly i like our way much better
    2&3) Look at 1

    4) We could look into something like that
    5) We are also playing around with a colour scheme. Right now #1 for me is legibility

    What is your resolution? I programmed it so it was a 75 percent width. My res is 1280 x 1024.. it looks great on this res. I also tested it out on 1024 x 768.. it looks great on that too. 1024 x 768 or anything above should be a great look.

    The plan is to be more focused towards the "shooter" genre. Lets see.. there is PMGP which takes care of the racing and then you guys got the sports down.. i guess that leaves the shooting up for us.. :) heh.. I appreciate most of your comments.

    I wish the best of luck with this fantastic league you got set up. :D I like how you got the teams all nice and programmed into the forum.. that's cool. 8)

    I agree this is like my home away from home. This is what I was looking for when I bought my xbox live. To find a place where everyone can just get togehter and play games together. Plus this site just looks cool as heck and is so easy to navigate around in.

    Ahh, that would make sense then. I use 1280x1024 on my desktop and 1024x768 on my laptop. I just like using all of my screen real estate, that's all.

    tris if someone were to design something could we get rid of the current
    "post reply" "new topic" etc. buttons and then use new ones?
