I like the new look of ANN, I just now noticed it. Am I late?

The mascot has the deedlit look down perfectly. Great work! Very Happy

Eh, it’s okay.

Everything is way to compacted and the Heat Guy J add screws it all up.

I think the standard bar ad cuts into Deelit too much. She's just got that hand sticking out underneath and I keep starting at it. I'm not even getting a Heat Guy J ad. I suppose that's what the box in the upper right is supposed to be.

And I've already started playing in the My Anime and My Manga sections. Such fun! I loved reading all the articles from the different people running this place!

Happy 5th Birthday!!!

Anime smile It's not Deedlit. It's our mascot, Jadress, drawn by Justin's sister. I for one am digging the 5th Anniv. Dark Blue skin. Congrats, guys!

Looks great, but still a couple bugs here and there, on the forum I get a "#021B73" in the upper left corner instead of the border and menus.

Hey, when the HGJ ad expires will you be reserving that space for smaller ads, or will they always overlap like that?

I just want to say that I adore the new look! Granted, it will take a little getting used to but that's just because I've been looking at the old format for so long Very Happy

My only complaint is that at 800x600 everything is rolls off the screen. I guess that means that it is time to upgrade to a new computer.

Me no like change. ATARU SMASH!

But I like this change. Great job ANN crew, outside of the odd Heat Guy J placement, well, the mid size ads placement in general.

That's only if you have a small screen. This layout was designed for 1024x768 or higher (whereas the one we made 3 years ago was designed for 800x600 and up). However, even though this layout "looks best" at 1024, it was designed to shrink and fit into 800 pixels. At 800 Pixesl the two ads move to the left, covering up Jadress's arm and the diagnonal line.

It doesn't look as good, but at least it fits.

Well, the great thing about skins is that you can switch back to the old layout if you don't like the new one! Very Happy
