Site Maintenance & New Look
« Thread Started on Oct 26, 2009, 10:08am »

Dear Members,

As you might remember from a previous group e-mail, we have been working on a new look for the site.

We are happy to announce that everything for this new look has now been completed. So on this Thursday October 29th, we'll be undergoing a temporary site maintenance for a few days to put everything up.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask them here in this thread.

We'd like to thank you for your patience.

~Shraddha

On behalf of the Destined Staff

Despite prefering other skins to the main one I use the main one because all the others don't seem to have all the images working. Is that just me and if it isn't will that be fixed? I'm not asking if all the skins will still be there, though I hope they are. I'm just asking if there will be multiple skins that have all the images working when you are done.

Thanks.

Inspired by Stormy.

The above banner features something I wrote about Chris.

Images have indeed been missing from certain skins, so you're not the only one experiencing this.

After the site maintenance we will have one main skin, but you will have the option to choose your personal favorite top banner (Destined Main, Destined Kids, the winning banner from the contest etc.). So you won't find exactly the same skins we currently have, but one skin where you can choose your preferred top banner through modifying your profile.

I hope this answers your question.

I wanted to make a little announcement.. We currently have three skins. (More will be added later on). Each skin looks the same, except for their top banner which you can choose from.

One of our skins has the winning banner from the avatar and banner contest, created by xxkeelimexx.

We'd like to thank you again for your beautiful banner, xxkeelimexx, and congratulations on your own skin theme!

I hope you'll all like this new skin. If you have any questions, please let me know.

The site is nice I have a problem I see the images very fuzzy and I have difficulty reading grey words

Thank you for informing me this. I'll make the link color a little bit lighter grey, so it will be easier to read. I won't be able to get to this right now though, but I'll try to change the color as soon as possible.

As for the fuzzy images.. What images are you talking about exactly? The smaller on/off icons that change, or the highlight images that appear when moving your mouse across the boards?

The little icons on the left side are fuzzy on purpose. When there are no new posts in a board, you see the fuzzy icon, but if a new post has been made, you'll see the original sharp icon.
