Site News: Macrumors Redesign

MacRumors site design has been updated.

The new design preserves the basic feel of MacRumors but brings improved "standards" compliance and improved site navigation. Raw HTML file sizes should also be reduced.

Please report any errors or navigational difficulties to arn.

MacRumors' Forums will also see a major version upgrade in the future at which time the forum style will be brought into line with the new design.

A few things to note:

- Ad free 'contributors' version will be functional shortly.
- Permanent story links can now be found by clicking on the Article Titles.
- Forums will follow.
- Should look much better on PDAs and CellPhones
- Article ratings are temporarily absent... they will return
- The top header area may seem somewhat empty when smaller ads appear



Note: if you would like to compare to the old design, you can see the previous MacRumors' design here.

Congrats. It's a nice job.

In Safari, I'm getting a weird green box when I mouse over the logo at the top left. After mouseover, a red outline box remains.

Edit: It's gone now. Logo is normal.

This is going to be great. Everyone will love it. You know why? I love it. And I hate everything at first. :D

I think it would be a good time to say that maybe this thread isn't the best place for everyone to go nuts complaining about every little qualm they have, ie. the rollovers should be darker, or something silly like that.

Best of luck with the redesign.

Holy Crap!!!
I just noticed this. I thought I had the first post on it, too, but it appears that the "0 Comments" was outdated by 5 seconds.

I love it.

has anyone else noticed that apparently MacRumors is now XHTML compliant? At least it has the xhtml transitional doctype. i hadn't noticed that before.

[edit:]Oh, yeah, Arn mentioned standards compliance. Score 1 XHTML![/edit]

Nah, I don't they're going to use it (not that I have any say in it, of course). But maybe you can help us convince 'em to go with a new kind of voting--for True or False on rumors. That would be sweet.
