    I've been thinking, and discussing with Chalex, about having a fairly cartoony looking design, a bit like the Battlefield:Heroes website. This hopefully will be more unique, unlike any other clan or gaming community website which is all glossy and metallic.

    What do you all think?

    For those of you that think that this is a bad idea, we won't be going full out cartoony everywhere. The site will look more fun rather than crazy.

    The site is likely to have mostly lighter colours, similar to the current site, but with some additions.

    Obviously this is one of our first ideas, so we are welcome to more suggestions to move the idea forward.

    Nice, I like the look of the Battlefield Heros website.

    I know I'm not round often enough for my opinion to really hold any value, but that's what I think.

    Black/red is too cliché too and as far as I can see, ATK are not cliché at all.

    Yeah, the design is free and some other people probably have it too, but so what? it's a simple to use interface which won't put people off! What we don't want is something too complex so that people take ages to find something on their first visit or the page takes ages to load etc.

    I think we should use purple. Just my two cents.

    I think we should have a favicon... Chop Chop.

    I have been playing around with the favicons for the last few hours and think I have finally managed to make it work in all browsers. The .ico file that Chazlene gave me didn't work, so I had to make firefox use the .png and IE use a new .ico that I generated. All other browsers also seem to work well with it. Let me know if it all works for you.

    It doesn't work on Vexplorer, but that may just be because I didn't add a Favicon box...

    But yeah it looks good, a bit weird without the wick but at 16x16 you wouldn't really see it anyway.

    Yeah it works for me now, nice one. It chops the wick off though :P.

    don't really need the wick......you can recognise it as the ATK skull and for a little favicon that's all you need really

    it's a good favicon
