Post news Report RSS How do you like the new page design?

XDM ModDB page has undergone a re-design. Tell me what you think. Not-very-social poll.

Posted by on

A you see, I've changed this page design quite a bit. No extra resources, no XSS, no browser breaking, just pure CSS.

Since we cannot run a poll among ModDB population, here's what game celebrities have answered instead:

Duke Nukem

  • [x] Damn, it's lookin' good!
  • [ ] Your <head>, your CSS, what's the difference?

J. C. Denton

  • [x] Your vision is augmented
  • [ ] Give me the GEP gun!

Serious sam

  • [ ] Aaah, it's just what I have always wanted!
  • [x] Finally some sci-fi mumbo jumbo!
  • [ ] Not again!

Imperial guard

  • [x] Am I supposed to be impressed?
  • [ ] Stop right there, criminal scum! Nobody breaks the law on my watch!

GLaDOS

  • [ ] Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee[bzzt]
  • [x] Well done. In fact, you did so well, I'm going to note this on your file, in the commendations section. Oh, there's lots of room here. 'Did.... well. ... Enough.'
  • [ ] I'm not angry. Just go back to the testing area.

Chell

  • [ ] Jump
  • [ ] Jump

Drill sgt.

  • [x] Well, I'll be damned!
  • [ ] What is your major malfunction?!

G-man

  • [x] Wisely done...
  • [ ] Quite a nasty piece of work you've managed over there, I am impresssssssssed.

Barney Calhoun

  • [x] Sounds right!
  • [ ] I'd like to get my hands on the guy responsible for this mess!.
  • [ ] It can't get any worse than this, can it?

Dr. Cleiner

  • [x] Yes, this all looks nominal.
  • [ ] Someone's hidden my glasses again!
  • [ ] This is madness!

Gordon Freeman

  • [x]
  • [ ]

Don't forget to hate, ignore and don't read any more important news soon.

No resources were harmed during the production of this page.

Lol, archived news is still visible to followers and visitors of your mod. Only important articles like progress updates and release announcements are supposed to be authorised/featured on the front page of ModDB. Also, news is automatically self-archived if you forget to embed relevant media or follow the formatting rules mentioned here (before submitting an article) Media.moddb.com

You can't use moddb polls? Moddb.com

Thanks! I didn't intend this to get to the front page of the Site, but to be posted on mod's page. Overall site logic is a bit obscure. Unintuitive. Weird. Plain weird. What is "archive"? Normal people think it's something old and interesting only to archaeologists. I post article - it gets "archived". I mark downloads as "archived" and they still stick to the front page (and I don't want them to be visible, they confuse people, eat up space and slow down the page).

And where is the <cut>??? Wasn't it there a few years ago? I don't want a 10-page article to stretch the whole mod page. (exagerrated example :) )

PS: also, moddb CSS is... strange. ".container" is a crazy thing: you add property to the header and it screws up the whole site. Also, input boxes are not resizing properly, but that may be my browser's thing.
