Default Re: SE:StarFury Screenshots!

Is it just me or what? When I went to the Starfury site, the menu on the left was kind of big (especially on my meager 14" screen running at 800x600, it took up close to half my screen) I went to the site on my brother's computer (he has a 17" monitor running at 1280x1024) and it still looked kind of big.

What did you people think?

Cheers!

It is pretty large.

I agree. I am on a 15" LCD screen (Laptop) running at 1024X768, and it is huge. I think they should decrease the size of it by about 100 pixels.
It is currently around 295 pixels and to me that is just at least 75 pixels to wide. But that's my opinion.

I sent this example to Aaron and he prefered his larger one. I'm trying to convince him to change but I'll not push him. The final decision will be his!



Cheers!

I like the background of the one on the site a lot more than that one. It just needs to be made narrower, and it will be fine.

As far as width goes, I like the one you sent to Aaron to choose from.
But I, like Fyron, prefer the Nebula background from the old image.

Might I also suggest a change of font on your suggested menu to the one used in the series. Arial is bland.

But overall, a smaller menu is a better menu

That's not arial. That's one of the fonts used in SE4.

Hey, stop making fun of the president.
Ahh come on, he's fair game.

If you are going to make fun of someone, you at least have to do so in an intelligent manner. That Wubbya the Woothless comment was kind of childish (no offence to the pseudo-great tigga, of course).

Intelligent????
I know several people suffering from that. It only seems to help them stick their heads further up their butt.

In an Intelligent Manner???

I agree. You know, he's as valid a target as anyone of the Last 40+ presidents have been.
