    I hope everyone with designs to be a reviewer has sent a mail. The site launches on the 17th and we're still on the lookout for some formats.

    I sent my application in - I hope I'm not too late :(.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,872 ✭✭✭segadreamcast


    BTW; index2.html - you didn't exactly go to much effort to hide it...?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,980 ✭✭✭meglome


    hahaha I only put that link in there this evening, so it would be easier to do tomorrow. That's exactly what I would have tried but it's staying as is so you got a sneak preview.

    What did you think btw?

    Not fully finished but we like it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,571 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    Very very good, megalome.
    Looks like one to add to the bookmarks when its launched!
    Good job.

    (But.... remind me to turn down the contrast on my monitor next time I visit..... its VERRRRY red !!) :D

    Honestly - it's a good foundation design, but could probably be touched up a bit. The colour scheme, while original makes me think (a.) whoa and (b.) McDonalds :P. Then again, I'm a tough person to please in terms of design - even though personally I can't draw a straight line ;).

    No reply on the reviewing position - so I'll take that as a no then :(


  • Moderators, Motoring & Transport Moderators Posts: 14,093 Mod ✭✭✭✭monument
