Site Redesign

Sorry, I published the URL too soon in a previous post but now made it live anyhow:

http://www.prongs.org/ministry/

The news page is the main page and everything else is the same.

What do people think? Suggestions? It only took a few of hours so a lot left to do.

the only small problem I have is the banner without Paul, I know that Ministry IS Al, but… we are too much here to like the input of Paul and of Rieflin, Connelly… maybe the banner should not include a picture of Al.
I just can’t forget the pre-2004 era.

anyway I like the colours.

Interesting - I had asked the person who did the banner originally just yesterday to make one without anyone’s picture - just the graphic… So that’ll be coming this weekend sometime.

RSS! Good work. (if it was around before and i didnt notice…sorry). I’ma a sucker for RSS.

hell i like the sick-green color links :stuck_out_tongue:

the banner has been up a long time, i’m surprised at the sudden cry against it.

personally i like the layout for the site a bit… umm, dirty? Ministry doesn’t bring ‘slick, polished’ to mind.

it’s one thing i liked about the banner is the dirty rust feel.

It looks really great Afra! i do agree with Jizzwad, maybe put a landscape but more like a desert scene or something because the band besides Al is kind of a revolving door these days. Either way it looks very smart! Good work as per usual sir!
As catgoat says you are a gentleman and a scholar [:)]

Does the page (the links on the right side) fit on everyone’s page? Or is too wide?

Too wide for me

fix the image header link on the forum. it links to a dead location

fits ok for me.

the header just doesn’t stylistically fit with the rest of the page design. Need something that suits your colour scheme, and your choice of things like fonts n that.

Bloody top looking site though.

Can anyone post a screenshot of this on IE6? I’m on a Mac but seen it’s fine in Firefox, Safari and IE7 (doesn’t seem wide). Wondering if it’s IE6?

Thanks

one sec i’ll upload it from IE6.

good?

I hope it’s not too late but may I suggest using one of the older Ministry logos/fonts for the banner. I truly hate the newer Anarchy/Peace Ministry logo as it is just so damn juvenile, not to mention pretty fucking ghey!

I suggest the classic boldface all cap MINISTRY logo that they used in the mid-late 90’s. That logo was simple, effective and it commanded respect. Perhaps users could vote on a logo. Please please please don’t use the lame new logo!!!

Who’s with me?

RSS! Good work. (if it was around before and i didnt notice…sorry). I’ma a sucker for RSS.

Yeah was around for a few years. I love it too though not many sites (that could) implement the feature…

Yeah, true that, in fact ,i was shocked when Fabryka (or however its spelled) didn’t do it, do i directed them straight to feedburner.

Just put this on feedburner too actually…

I am really shocked the official Ministry site doesn’t have an RSS feed. Anything official should …

On this site, many do subscribe to it…

I think the size issues have been fixed - please let me know of any issues that you may have noticed…

Thanks

Thanks to Tenohtwo for the new banner design. I’ll be adding more and rotating them randomly… cool…

I just sent you some more banners, with varying Ministry logos. Forgot to mention in the email that I used the ‘yellow’ text color for a couple of them. Gonna work on a couple of ‘dirtier’ banners, too.
