New look for 2000AD review

gavhanly · 16 August, 2009, 07:10:34 PM

As it says, a new look to the "other" site is now up and running. Still a few things to iron out - but seems to be working more or less OK...

Let me know what you think!

Oh yeah Gav, I like it! The new logo is particularly nice.

I'm definately going to try to be more active and less of a lurker on your forum too...

I agree, that's a huge improvement Gavin. Looks alot more modern and that logo is spot on. Glad the site's sticking around.

Looks good but.... shouldn't you update the logo to match the current logo on the prog?

Just a thought.

Good site.

What's the latest on what's happening with 2000ad Reviews, Gavin? I thought you were mothballing it!

We're carrying on now - just needed to balance the workload on the site (the redesign will help that in the long run).

As for the logo - I don't want it exactly like the one on the comic, wanted to have some differentiation so that it could be identified as a different site from the official one. The logo was designed by the mighty Mike Carroll - who I think did a fab job.

That looks great! Nice work.

Kerrin · 16 August, 2009, 10:36:04 PM

Great new look Gav, like it.

That's only brilliant, lads. Perhaps slightly depressingly it's streets ahead of the official site. You know, the one owned by a video games company.

That was mearly an observation and certainly not a criticism, it's a great site.. and yeah, that logo has Carroll written all over it!

Nice.

Indeed it is. Very happy to see the site given a new lease of life.

Oh, But I can Only access it from here. It does look neat, but What I'm interested in is the door thing that appaers now when I link to this site.

Whats with that?

Symbolism.

Mike Gloady · 24 August, 2009, 04:04:47 PM

It's always been a great site and the new look and Mike Carrol's loverly logoage are all good but - YOU'RE NOT MOTHBALLING IT?!?!?

I'm very pleased to hear it. Well done again, fine work all round - which is just what I'd expect from 2000ad review.
