New Layout Update, 2nd Pass

Okay, so after a lenghty discussion here's what we have so far.

Cyborg Factory
the layout of this section remains unchanged, so as to have all bots appear with equal importance. However, little icons will be added in front of the bot names to identify easily what games they are for and in which state (dead, under development, released/stable). For example:

["bot no longer in development" icon] [HLDM icon][OpFor icon][TFC icon][DMC icon][Firearms icon] HPB_Bot

["bot released" icon] [CS icon] Realbot

etc...

I think I summed up it all. If you notice I've forgotten something, please notify me fast, else the vote would be invalided again.

Guess that's right... Otherwise, you can always fix it ;) :D

not really much to talk about ATM.. like Crey said.. you can always fux it later..

[von Ryan]

like Crey said.. you can always fux it later.. Wow! First time someone actually nicknames my nickname! Not that I can complain, my nick is in portuguese and hacker language (http://www.google.com/intl/xx-hacker/), and I can't force anyone to understand portuguese. And I guess that "crey" is the most "english-speakable" part of my nick... :D

Wait... WTF did this had to to with this thread?

[@$3.1415rin]

as I said, i'm ok with this :D

[stefanhendriks]

lets do it!

[Pierre-Marie Baty]

validated! :D
one of the fastest polls ever...

Funny how everybody said they liked my idea yet didn't put it into practice... the key aspect of my suggestion was not only to keep bots in one list, but to add those categories that HK had intended as sub-forums in the shape of sub-headlines (you know, like "Cyborg Factory" and the other ones), only smaller or in different colours to show a hierarchy...

But this solution is ok to me, especially if you all like it. 9_9 Not to invalidate this vote again...

I'd say that was a very interesting and fruitful discussion in the first layout update thread after all. Otherwise, this poll wouldn't have been so quick, and the final layout wouldn't have been so good. Thx to Huntakillaz for kicking off this discussion, though - it was needed. =)

[Huntkillaz]

thnx guys, just glad to help.

next : some forum themes ;)


one thing i think that should be in all bot forums

is the read 1st post.

[>BKA< T Wrecks]

Yeah, although one typical problem with Read Firsts is that exactly those people they are aimed at are the ones who will ignore them anyway... 9_9

But as long as there's life, there's hope...
